Solitairea1, …I’m in the same boat you are on this one. Either there is a real Tom Nolan or there isn’t. If there is, his official police record won’t tell us – assuming we could get it – for all of the reasons you stated. We need people who partnered with him in the LAPD, at West LA and in “Detective School.” We need his picture and Kevin DeVries’. ……………Maybe I’ve spent too much time noting Fuhrman patterns in movies (which I’m sure most people will instantly conclude I have without seeing what I did and how I did it) but this is yet another variation on an old movie theme – the imposter. For example: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0049471/ http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0098051/ (check out the top four male actors). The list of actors who played a character called DeVries blew me away. There was no Kevin but there were two Toms. Both of them played their DeVries character in movies released before 1992. ……….. Then, of course there are professional actors who are imposters by definition. This is what I found when I looked up Tom Nolan http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0634363/ If you’re wondering about any Fuhrman connection check out item 33, Combat starring Vic Morrow the father of actress Jennifer Jason Leigh who shares Fuhrman’s birthday. Vic Morrow’s birthday is February 14, Valentine’s Day. Items 46 and 47 will also grab your attention – the movie title in one and in the other, an uncredited redhead. …………Whether the Tom Nolan that only Phillips mentioned in court and only Fuhrman and Roberts appear to have recalled later is a real person or a fictions character he’s extremely important. As things stand we have to figure everything involving him two ways. How do things shake out if he is real and how do they shake out if he isn’t. Just because he looks right now to be a character played by Kevin DeVries doesn’t mean he is. For purposes of analysis it might not matter, depending on what we can nail down in the process of pursuing both possibilities. If at some point one possibility excludes the other in terms of what was possible and what wasn’t, we’ll know. …………Right now I can only be sure that the man called Tom Nolan was with Roberts when Roberts questioned Boztepe and Rasmussen at the station (for how long?) and Schwab in his home with his wife. If he is real we might be able to figure out whether or not he told the truth about ever being on Bundy from the testimony of Riske, Terrazas, Rossi and Spangler about a fourth detective on the scene before Vannatter arrived. If "he" lied about that, everything he said about being there is a lie. If he isn’t real, everything about him is a lie. –Jasper
