Summary
Treasure hunter Tommy Thompson, 73, was released from prison after serving over 10 years for refusing to disclose the location of missing gold coins. Thompson found the treasure from the sunken ship SS Central America in 1988, but investors claim they received no return on their investment. Despite Thompson’s claims of memory loss, authorities suspect he knows the location of the missing coins.
Our Reading
The habit of hiding treasure gets a new name: “selective amnesia”.
Thompson’s memory loss due to chronic fatigue syndrome was met with skepticism by the judge. His lawyer claims every last piece of gold dust was accounted for, but the location of the missing coins remains a mystery. A $10 million California gold rush bar recovered from the shipwreck is now on the market. Thompson’s release from prison after over a decade raises more questions than answers.
Freedom is just a treasure hunt away, or so it seems.
