Lost love to a convent? Or the mob at La Costa Resort?
Ken, you need too go on Facebook and check out posts by Rick Crocket. He has told four different versions of a story about how his "girl friend" from high school disappeared. In one version, she was murdered. In another, she mysteriously disappears, but no mention of being a nun, In that version, he spends years searching the backroads for her body. In another, she was killed by a drunk driver and Rick mourns her for years while working with addicts and fighting drunk driving. And now this version. In his various stories, he either meets this girl in high school, or they meet when they are both 7 years old and are somehow promised to each other in marriage.The stories change each time he tells them. Crocket has also claimed that he invented the technology that launched Quaalcom; that he has a doctorate in computer engineering; that he has extensive contacts throughout the FBI, CIA and Interpol; that he is on the verge of producing a TV show; and that many of his high school teachers were mind-controlled Soviet agents. Crocket's Faceboook posts are frequently filled with hate speech against minority groups and religious groups. He is harshly homophobic, anti-Semitic and xenophobic. I think Crocket's issue is pretty obvious. What isn't is why anyone would post one of his wild stories,— July 21, 2013 12:12 p.m.
