Miss Marple,
Most of the 22 references I found in connection with Fuhrman can be traced to his 22-day suspension, the coins on Bundy or Rod Serling’s “Twenty Two.” Sometimes all of them come together or take you in a direction you didn’t expect. I didn’t make a Ted Bundy connection to Twenty Two because I read that he confessed to 28 murders. The link is there, however, because his first murder trial was on February 22 in Miami.
This sort of thing is so easy to confuse that somebody somewhere could have reported that he confessed to 22 murders. It also points up the danger of trying to test number theories with the facts. Fuhrman might have gotten a factual number wrong or changed it a bit for reasons that we will never know.
I have learned to look for more than one double-digit number in association with Fuhrman. 22, 11, 33 and 44 -- in that order-- are the most frequent repeating digits. 32, 12, 13 and 57 are the most frequent non-repeating digits. You also see them many times in reverse (23, 21, 31 and 75) or at the beginning or end of a four-digit number. 101, 360 and 666 are the most common three digit numbers. The most common single-digit numbers are 5, 1 and 6. In a long series of digits, look for 1, 3, 5 and 7 in any order (the numbers in the telephone number in Fuhrman’s Cara Cal Pizza Kitchen note). If you don’t see all of them they don’t count.
You can find plenty of numbers in just about anything so you have to be careful not to pick the ones that fit the patterns you are looking for and ignore the ones that don’t. None of these numbers in isolation is significant. What makes them significant is the context in which they appear. When Fuhrman uses them repeatedly or inappropriately without an APPARENT reason, you know that they mean something to him.
For instance, Fuhrman said in his Murder in Greenwich book that the matching Toney Penna golf club found in the Skakel home was a 5-iron. It wasn’t. It was a 4-iron. In the movie, he uses the number 22 excessively and has the ghost of Martha Moxley telling us that the Rob Mathers character (Ed Hammond) was a 22-year-old grad student. He was a 26-year-old grad student. The number 26 is only significant in the Fuhrman collection of movies when it appears as a July 26 birthday or a death day. My birthday is July 26. I saw it in that context in only two movies: The Brotherhood of the Bell (one of the stars was born on July 26 and died on February 5) and Dying to Remember – the birthday on a woman’s death certificate (she died on March 7).
I use my birthday as well as my father’s birthday, which happens to be Halloween, to make sure that I am not seeing more of Fuhrman’s birthday in movies that I linked him to than anyone else’s. I also use my mother’s birthday, my sister’s, my brother’s and my two sons’. Fuhrman’s birthday has ALL of ours beaten by a mile, even my father’s.
Sorry for appearing to stray from the subject but it could be a key part of it. Martha Moxley died on the 30th of October just like Dominique Dunne, but her body wasn’t discovered until the 31st. –Jasper
