During the 80s, the story of three triplets separated at birth took New York by storm. This was before the age of the internet, so the mere fact that this story was so widely known is a testament to the intrigue in itself.

Robert Shafran, David Kellman, and Eddy Galland, three identical men who met each other by chance and found twists and turns within their own life story that is fit for a telenovela, however, much sadder. We must advise that you gather all your emotional strength for the roller coaster ride of a tale that we are about to reveal to you.

The Community in the College

Robert Shafran, or Bobby for those who read the story when it first came to light, started community college in New York in 1980. Like any 19-year-old on his first day in college, he was equal parts excited and anxious for this new journey in his life.

As a bright-eyed young man who was preparing himself for the possible worst, Robert was pleasantly surprised when a lot of friendly strangers greeted him warmly. The welcoming community replaced his initial worries with completely new ones of suspicions about the strange turn of events.
