"Fraudster"[edit]

Is that a word? 7&6=thirteen (☎) 16:54, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Google it and you will find it is. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:18, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Chrissie = Chris Hawkins?[edit]

The article refers to "Chrissie" before "Chris Hawkins". From the context it would seem that they are the same person, but a reference to just the nickname (and as the first appearance) is confusing. Am I correct? IAmNitpicking (talk) 13:58, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think you're very probably right. The Gamman source ~~(self-published, as far as I can tell, but...)~~ uses "Chrissie", "Chris" and "Chris Hawkins". Same individual. "However"... her eldest son - who had no involvement with crime - is also named "Chrissie". All a bit confusing. Haploidavey (talk) 17:40, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
