She didn't. Doesn't have to. I can write a story about how tomorrow I will get a phone call from a person whom I didn't talk to for ten years. If I keep writing those stories and saying "tomorrow" in them, it is very likely that I will one day seem to have been right in every single one of them, since people
do occasionally make those phone calls, because I have kept the constant phone numbers for the last fifteen years and thousands of people have them. Sometimes people just turn up.
So, if I have written such stories, have I
known this will happen or not?

Umm... What's the
normal speed of a message bottle?
So far, the slowest the message ever got to the destination, if my memory serves me right, is 300 years. Landed fairly close to where it should have, too.
For example, though, she dumped them into the water near the mouth of the sub pen cave, discarded as failed drafts, and they got blown out by the pressure wave coming in through the tunnel with the water - but didn't break because the tunnels caved in soon after that.

Impossible for anybody to survive - yes. Known that a crime was about to occur - not necessarily, as explained above.

You seem to have missed the bit about the 1 billion bank card. That's what it's really for.

Claire is a creation of Bern based on her interpretation, Will addresses that interpretation. It is in Bern's interest to paint Claire the culprit and then show that she's irrelevant anyway. It is in Claire's interest to keep George unaccused because she loves him, so she takes the blame.
Will just gets railroaded all the way and only realises it in the very end.

I didn't say it was a complete theory.
