In 1960, during a robbery at a seedy hotel in New York City, died a decrepit gentleman of 70 years, night porter business, called Stanley Clifford Weyman. It was the last time his name appeared in newspapers.

was leaving behind a fabulous life of deceit and lies that had allowed him to be consul, a lieutenant in the navy, an expert on prisons, lawyer, medical journalist and film star Pola Negri ... we'll see who it was.

Stanley was born in 1890 in Brooklyn, New York, within a poor family could not afford their studies, so that from an early age had to fend for themselves. Thus, in 1910, with twenty shattered, was first arrested on charges of fraud, since it had passed by the U.S. consul in Morocco, in order to dine at the best restaurants in town.

This arrest did not stop soon after hiciese go through a military attaché in Serbia and a Navy lieutenant in the U.S., but again was captured.

Weyman was released for the second time in 1915, but continued with his lies, he became Lieutenant-Commander Ethan Allen Weinberg, consul general of Romania. Flaunting this false charge, personally inspected the USS Wyoming, a U.S. Navy ship. The move went so far to venture to invite the admirals of the ship and other celebrities at a gala dinner at the Waldorf Astoria hotel ... but the publicity given to the act caused the FBI to stay with the singing, so was arrested in half of the party by the feds.

He was heard complaining that they should have waited until dessert.

was sentenced to one year in jail.

In 1917 he became Royal St. Cyr, a false air Lt. American Army. He was again arrested, but was paroled in 1920. Seeing

chunga had the thing in America, pal went south, just for Peru, where he pretended to be a doctor of a large construction company. He threw lavish parties and lived as a god, until the credit ran out and was arrested.

In 1921 he learned of the princess Fatima Afghanistan was visiting the U.S. so without thinking twice visited her as a representative of the State Department Naval, apologizing for the oversight and pledging to make an appointment with the president. He managed to get $ 10,000 as "gifts" to officials of the Department of State. The money, interestingly, he used to carry on a private railway to the princess and her entourage and accommodation at the luxurious Willard Hotel in Washington DC



Once in the U.S. capital, it gigs meet with the secretary of state, Charles Evans Hughes, who could not convince him an audience with Princess Afghan President, at the time, Warren G. Harding. But he got stubborn, and pushing force, managed to get the attention of the president, who managed to speak.

got a private audience for the Princess.
At night he went to celebrate with the Afghans to a fancy restaurant.

Some bugs in the protocol aroused the suspicion was confirmed when the press showed the photos along with the princess. He was rearrested and charged with impersonating a naval officer. He was sentenced to two years in prison.

After leaving prison, the newspaper "The Evening", asked him to try to get a interview with the Queen Mary of Romania, who was visiting the country. He was admitted as Secretary of State and got the interview.



But his most popular achievement was to come: In 1926 Weyman appeared at the funeral of Rudolph Valentino (1895-1926), accompanied in mourning for her lover (pictured above), the actress, Pola Negri (1897-1887), which said it had been his personal physician and friend. He dared even to the beautiful Negri prescribe some painkillers and issuing press releases about its status. Pola Negri was sentenced after having been exposed, but this time was not arrested.

was then attorney, coming to give some lectures at universities, and during World War II was dedicated to giving advice to those who wanted to avoid going to the front, simulating various health problems.

was sentenced to seven years in prison for this. Later

be devoted to radio journalism, both in 1948 got credentials to become a UN reporter, and something after the Ambassador of Thailand offered him gigs as a press officer for the group at the UN. This happened in early 1951. Worried about jobs that might endanger their U.S. citizenship, requested permission the secretary of state ... with such bad luck that an officer recognized her name and gave him away.

Finally, as we said at first, in August 1960, Weyman was fatally shot when he tried to stop the robbery at the hotel where he worked as a night porter.
