Who Was Frédéric Bourdin?
What authorities were about to discover about Bourdin was that he’s been fooling people practically his whole life. Nicholas Barclay is not the first young boy that Bourdin has pretended to be. In fact, he spent many of his younger years impersonating other orphans all around Europe. It has even been reported that by the age of 16, he had already duped a variety of institutions, foster homes, schools, hospitals and even orphanages into believing he was someone else.
