The Coast Guard performed an exhaustive search of the area but in November 2008 declared that Newton-John’s boyfriend had probably drowned. Two months later, however, it was rumored that investigators had discovered that McDermott had faked his disappearance and was living in Mexico. Now, nearly 11 years later, DailyMail reports that those rumors were true, and Olivia’s former boyfriend has been found alive and well in rural Mexico, living with a new German girlfriend. Australia’s Woman’s Day magazine reports that Olivia’s former boyfriend is living and working in the Mexican town of Sayulita according to private investigator Philip Klein. The first detective on the case was John Nazarian. He indicated he believes the reports, saying: “It’s rumored he was with a German national. I spoke to people there [in Mexico]. The girl he was traveling with was described as having a German accent. To come up with the conclusion that he fell off the boat, and allegedly no one saw him fall off the boat, is the most preposterous thing I’ve ever heard in my life.” ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.

>> OVER 10 YEARS AGO OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN'S BOYFRIEND VANISHED ON A FISHING TRIP IN SAN PEDRO, CALIFORNIA. INVESTIGATORS PRONOUNCED THAT HE HAD DROWNED. RECENT EVIDENCE PLACES THE ACTRESS' EX IN MEXICO ALIVE AND WELL WITH A NEW GIRLFRIEND. BUT IT GETS MORE FISHY. IN 2009, A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR DELVED INTO THE ISSUE FURTHER. JUST A FEW WEEKS AFTER HE STARTED THE INVESTIGATION HE GOT A LETTER FROM MCDERMOTT'S LAWYER THAT SAID HE DIDN'T FAKE ANYTHING, HE JUST WANTED TO GET AWAY FROM THE DRAMA. THEY WERE ABLE TO PLACE HIM IN A REMOTE TOWN IN MEXICO. THE REASON THEY PLACED HIM THERE WAS BECAUSE THIS INVESTIGATOR NOTICED THAT THERE WERE IP ADDRESSES IN THIS AREA THAT FREQUENTED A WEBSITE THAT WAS CREATED BY INVESTIGATORS TO TRACK HIS WHEREABOUTS. THIS GUY IS A MASSIVE PIECE OF ***. >> LET'S TALK ABOUT THE MOST SURPRISING PARTS OF THE STORY. FIRST THAT HIS NAME IS PATRICK MCDERMOTT. SECONDLY, IN 2008 THEY DECLARED HIM MOST LIKELY TO ñ ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THE GUY HAS 30,000 IN DEBT, TAKES OUT A NEW PASSPORT UNDER A DIFFERENT NAME, BUT BEFORE HE DISAPPEARED. >> AND 22 PEOPLE ON A BOAT, NO ONE SAW HIM FALL OFF. >> BUT SOMEONE DOESN'T GET A NEW PASSPORT RIGHT BEFORE THEY MYSTERIOUSLY DROWN AND THEN SET UP ALL NEW BANK ACCOUNTS. OF COURSE HE DIDN'T DROWN. OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS A PLOY. THE GUY IS PRETTY SICK. WHAT HE DID TO OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN IS PRETTY GREASY. PUN INTENDED. WHAT HE DID TO HIS WIFE AND HIS SON IS 1000 TIMES WORSE. THE WIFE STILL DOESN'T BELIEVE THEY FOUND HIM. >>IT DOESN'T EVEN END THERE. AT FIRST I WAS GOING TO SAY HOW CRAZY IS OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN THAT THIS DUDE LITERALLY FAKED A DEATH TO GET AWAY FROM HER. BUT THEN I REALIZED HE HAS FAMILY. HE JUST SKIPPED OUT ON HIS FAMILY. ONE OF THE INVESTIGATORS WROTE A BOOK SAYING THIS PERSON IS NOT DEAD, HE IS ALIVE AND IN MEXICO YEARS AGO. HIS MOTHER STILL BELIEVING HE WAS DEAD, WENT AS FAR AS TO SEND LETTERS TO THE CEO OF AMAZON TO ASK HIM PLEASE LET US LIVE, PUT THIS MATTER TO DEATH, STOP SELLING THIS BOOK, THIS PERSON IS A LIAR. THE REAL LIAR WAS HER SON. >> THAT WAS THE MOM OF HIS SON, HIS EX-WIFE. >> THEY DIDN'T WANT THE SON TO GO ñ YEAH, THAT WAS A CONVERSATION WE HAD THIS MORNING. OH, SHE MUST'VE BEEN CRAZY. THEN STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND BREAK UP WITH HER, AND THEN MOVE TO MEXICO. DON'T BE A *** AND FAKE YOUR OWN DEATH. >> IN THE BEGINNING I THOUGHT THIS IS THE MOST ELABORATE BREAKUP OF ALL TIME. GATHER UP YOUR BALLS AND JUST SAY YOU ARE DONE. BUT IT TURNS OUT IT'S ABOUT THE MONEY, LEBOWSKI. >>$30,000 IS A *** TON OF MONEY, RIGHT? BUT IT'S NOT SO MUCH THAT YOU COULD NOT EARN THAT AT SOME POINT, AND PAY IT BACK. THERE ARE A LOT OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS. >> SOME PEOPLE CAN'T HELP BUT LIE. THIS GUY GOT INTO THE DEBT PROBLEMS FOR THAT REASON. IT KIND OF WORKS FOR HIM THOUGH. HE GOT AWAY WITH IT FOR 11 YEARS. >>HE IS A GOOD-LOOKING DUDE. >> THIS GUY STILL KEEPS GETTING IT.
