SakshiNot What It Seemed
The investigation was taken to the next level to find out more about the couple. They had a very expensive lifestyle regardless of the fact that Jerry was a teacher and it is next to impossible to lead such an expensive life for a family with a modest income. Even the family members were surprised on finding out that Alters had hoarded so many million dollars.
Thieves In Disguise
Roseman too had no concrete reason how they accumulated so many money. He assumed that his aunt and uncle must have made some good investments and knew how to spend their money. It was not only their wealth but also the fact that just had emerged that they were in the Tucson during the robbery for Thanksgiving, 1985.
Strange Outcome
Roseman still can’t believe that his aunt and uncle can have a hand in the robbery. According to him, “I guess I figured they were very frugal.” He continued, “They were just nice people.”
The Mystery Unfolds
The robbery was one of the most chased crimes of that time. One of the journalists of The New York Times made a discovery. The journalist claimed that the couple indeed had a red sports car that resembles a great deal with the car that was seen driving away after the robbery. Another suspicious thing was that both of the Alters had their normally detailed journals had their journals empty during the time of Thanksgiving.
Was It Them?
Though the sketches of both the culprit bears a great resemblance with Atlers. But the fact that the man seemed to be in is the twenties and the lady in sixties flies in the face of the fact that they were a couple. Perhaps the male accompanier was the son of Jerry, i.e. Joseph or Jerry had taken the role of the lady.
Psychologically Disturbed
There was another revelation about Joseph that surprised everyone. The neighbors of Atlers said that Joseph who must be 23 years old at the time of the robbery, was suffering from a psychological problem. And because of his mental disorder, he had to go back and forth to the mental institutions.
