PI in Rockefeller Case Talks About His Profession

Marshfield private detective G. Robert Warren has been named as a witness in the case of Clark Rockefeller, who is charged with abducting his 7-year-old daughter in Boston last month.

The incident sparked an international manhunt for Rockefeller and his daughter, Reigh Boss. Rockefeller was arrested outside Baltimore earlier this month.

Warren, of Diverse Investigative Services in Webster Square in Marshfield, confirmed that Boston police have named him as a witness, but would not comment on the investigation.

But he did say most of a private eye’s work isn’t so exciting.

“Most of the time, it’s slow, mundane, boring,” he said. “You sit for hours and hours and hours on surveillance. If you blink, you might miss what you’re waiting to see.”

PI Witnessed Kidnapping

As the fame-seeking phony who calls himself Clark Rockefeller appeared on TV to plead his case, the adorable daughter he snatched was out of hiding and with her mother in London yesterday.

Meanwhile, the Herald has learned that Sandra Lynne Boss had hired a private investigator to tail her former husband prior to the alleged kidnapping.

According to a law enforcement source, Boss, 41, used the detective to keep an eye on Rockefeller - who authorities have identified as Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter - during his first supervised visit with 7-year-old Reigh “Snooks” Storrow Mills Boss on July 27.

The mother’s fears were realized when he snatched Snooks off a Back Bay street, touching off a five-day international manhunt.
