It sure seems like he had the perfect cover for carrying out these acts.
-Rarely played in the USA, due to "expensive travel costs". I'm sure a plane ticket to Singapore is much cheaper than to Ohio.
-Travel alone all over the world, rarely taking his wife along.
-Not bringing/hiring anyone to help with his 15 suitcases and guitars, although I'm sure there'd be young guys that would do it for free. They'd have to stay where he stayed, that'd be no good.
-Constantly staying at the homes of well wishers to "save money", although he was wealthy yet played the poor struggling musician part.
-Create a "charity" to teach young girls to learn the guitar.
-Videos posted elsewhere of his performance just two weeks before his death not only show he hadn't lost anything, but he had also added playing bongo drums with his hands on a wooden box to his act. Not necessary and certainly not something someone with oncoming problems with their hands would start doing. Then he has to selfishly off himself in his own home, making it heartbreaking to be around for his current wife and a tough sell for her should she want to sell it? A selfish act in itself. Noone was/is going to do any documentary on this guy. In the big picture he was a nobody outside of the tiny niche of people that were even aware he existed. Reading between the lines it seems his first wife in this discussion, who had two daughters prior to their relationship, found out after the fact he had indeed molested them as children unbeknown to her. That's crushing for a parent. As a parent with a daughter myself, I can only imagine the guilt she has felt for years for not being aware and preventing this. I can only assume Gary Atkinson has felt the same for many years. I for one am glad these details are coming out. I can only imagine the staggering numbers of potential victims around the world affected by this serial molester over the last 30 years.
