The long saga of the man known as Clark Rockefeller, who went from his birthplace in Bavaria, Germany, to the poshest society circles across the United States before landing in a Massachusetts prison, took another turn yesterday when he was charged with murder in the 1985 slaying of his former landlord in California.
Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter
Born and raised in West Germany.
Comes to America and marries a woman in Wisconsin and abandons after the wedding in 1981.
Lives with a nice American couple in the 1980s and murders them.

Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter
Until the 2008 kidnapping, Gerhartsreiter was a fixture in Boston society. Married to a high-level executive at McKinsey & Co., Gerhartsreiter lived in a Beacon Hill brownstone and let friends believe he was a member of the wealthy Rockefeller family, but was evasive when pressed about his ties to the family.
He kidnapped his daughter soon after his wife, Sandra Boss, filed for divorce and obtained custody of the child.
Friends initially expressed shock when they learned that he absconded with (Sandra Boss's dughter ) Reigh after shoving a social worker assigned to supervise the visit and taking off in a waiting sport utility vehicle.
“Had you told me that he was accused of murder before the kidnapping incident, I would have been shocked,’’ said Darryl Hopkins, the livery driver who became Gerhartsreiter’s unwitting getaway driver. But now, he said, “I’m not surprised at all.’’
A Suffolk County jury convicted Gerhartsreiter in June 2009 of parental kidnapping and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He was acquitted of two lesser charges, assault and battery and providing a false name to police.
They found out who he really was.
