Expand your thinking. You're assuming the story is real.

Q post 4 years before the chef died had the word chef.

That implies it was planned, thus probably nkt a real story or at least not at all as we are told.

Chef ould easily be in Witness Protection Program. Could be an evil person white hats wanted taken put.

Who knows?

I understand your position in all this. Don't lose hope. We are in world war III your spiritual strength is needed.
