To be honest, I did not know he went through that much. I know for example, if this happened in Annapolis, MD where I lived and somehow the person had my name and they blamed me somehow. I am at work (Naval Academy) and I am sure that we would have a pretty good laugh. I am sure my Facebook would be pretty interesting but I can’t imagine taking it seriously.
As I understand. the fellow had to have his phone disconnected because of personal threats.
I would suppose, he is communicating by other means as other media has talked to him.
