Man who faked suicide appears in N.L. court without wig

This reminds me of Superman and Clark Kent. It is amazing how the slightest change in appearance makes someone disappear. Change your hair colour and nobody recognises you?


Man who faked suicide appears in N.L. court without wigBruce Leyte appeared in a Corner Brook, N.L., courtroom for a bail hearing on Tuesday, alive and well, and without the wig he was wearing at the time of his arrest.

Leyte, 57, was arrested by members of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary at a residence in St. John's, N.L. on Sunday morning two years after he was presumed dead.

At the time of his arrest, Leyte was sporting a full-head of hair in stark contrast to the physical description the RCMP had been working with -- that he had been bald for years.
As it turned out, his hair had not grown back.

Corner Brook RCMP Const. Duncan Chisholm told CTV.ca on Tuesday that Leyte had been wearing a wig that was a completely different shade than his natural hair colour.
