53. the last we knew of his whereabouts
Thu Jun 27, 2013, 07:55 AM
Jun 2013

he was supposedly in the Moscow airport and supposedly with a representative of Wiki.

Then Wiki said only that he was in a safe place with same Wiki rep. I suspected then he was whisked out of the airport and into deeper hiding.

Because Wiki's lawyer says he doesn't know where Snowden is doe not mean that other people from Wiki don't know where he is. The rep he was with hasn't piped up and said he's no longer with her or that she lost him. Nor has Wiki piped up and mentioned that their rep has gone missing.

The fact is that anybody and everybody could be lying, or withholding info, at this point. If he's been taken into Russian custody without actually disclosing where he's being held to Putin, than he can legitimately say he doesn't know where he is. Likewise with everybody else in this drama.
