Investigation reveals "Salt Path" hid embezzlement, questions illness
An investigation alleges that the memoir "The Salt Path" and its film adaptation misrepresented the true circumstances behind the protagonists' homelessness. The author, Raynor Winn, and her husband, Moth, are reportedly Sally and Tim Walker. The investigation claims the couple lost their home due to a £64,000 embezzlement by Winn, not a failed business investment as portrayed. Questions are also raised about Moth's reported illness, with medical experts expressing skepticism. The book and film, which gained international acclaim, depict the couple's journey after losing their home. The investigation also revealed the couple owned property in France, contradicting the narrative of being entirely without resources.
