Here is another one to think about.
You have an Outgoing CA, and an incoming CA
A New Stamp is made for new CA (apparent misspelling of name on new stamp)((happens all the time))
The old Stamp is being removed for old CA, so no longer used
The New CA is not available for the signature, so the Person delivering the document, not Maganga, signs it. Again, Old stamp no longer available
This is a Rush job. Cash is involved
Lucas, did you say you witnessed Magange sign it? I don’t remember. I sorta think you did not see him, since he was not getting paid off, the clerk was...
My point is that transistion time has lots of minutae going on, and a quick payoff (hard cash) to an underpaid clerk is involved for this document.
* All information on the document is correct
* The document is real
* The embossing is real
* But during the transition, there is a new stamp, no possiblity yet of a real signature?
* Real possibility of No deal on the part of the clerk?
* He Can’t pass up the cash, so the clerk forges the signature, hence the misspelling, to agree with the stamp.
* Once the clerk has the cash, he no longer cares..It’s Not his problem...
The signature issue has boogered it up upon examination by those who checked it closely, but nobody has had issue with the contents of the document itself.
It sorta gets back to killing the message because of the messenger, anyway
I wish to point out that if this happened, it was not IMO at the urging of Lucas Smith, rather the greed and indifference of the clerk. There has been no other photo that I know of showing Heltan Maganga’s signature to disprove my “theory”, and that is all it is. If this were true, it would be human nature on the clerks side, and both Lucas and Mik would be correct. I love happy endings...LOL
Just a thought...
“The New CA is not available for the signature, so the Person delivering the document, not Maganga, signs it. Again, Old stamp no longer available”
Interesting.
Do you realize counterfeting a signature on an official document makes the entire document a fraud ?
