Current Claremont Murders Discussion & Edwards trial updates

[luxury]

Hi i am new on here after looking at the threads
just like to say somethings!

a lot of dark haired persons being portrayed?
blond hair male in consideration?
that could be 85%of population
maybe he has hair of a different color
i don't know
very confusing
anyway

The night she disappeared, Edwards was supposed to be with friends but only arrived the following day and lied about trying to reconcile with his ex-partner, Ms Barbagallo said.

[one eyed spy]

Whats the bet they dismissed the Telstra aspect on a mistaken belief that the person responsible was an elusive killer who had evaded them thus far due to his ability to not draw attention to himself or leave evidence behind, hence the idea that he would be approaching women & identifying himself as a Telstra worker was highly unlikely.

In saying that, I'd like to know for certain that there was actually another Telstra worker in their sights & whether he denied he had ever offered lifts to women or not. If thats true & he denied doing so but they didn't continue to pursue this line of enquiry in the face of evidence to the contrary, its unforgiveable IMO.

Hmmm seems to me that O'Callaghan has his suit of armour on ready to dodge b◇llets. It seems pretty bloody obvious there was no one who had oversight responsibility over the MACRO taskforce and that they were a law unto themselves that did not answer to anybody outside of the squad. And O'Callaghan was Commissioner for a great length of the time. Shame on him.

To be fair , and its not a defence, but didnt they already have and clear a Telstra employee?

Unfortunately Karlos is only softening us up- the real shocks are yet to come...will say again...when the full story of how Wapol cocked this up eventually comes out it will cause a crisis of public confidence confidence of the Western Australian Police force.

"Confidence confidence" link uploaded twice, to be sure to be sure. Well O'Callaghan is an Irish name. Totally agree with you B666, every story that's coming out brings more shocks about how the investigation proceeded. Definite worry!

Hopefully macro realized that telstra employs more than one person......

Begs the question how many TEs did they check out compared to how many taxi drivers they checked out

 

[Krusty Crab]

is Karl o'C already trying to distance himself from the systemic failures of Macro? the writing is on the wall in my opinion, the duck and covering has now started. hopefully Caporn gets a rap on the knuckles out of this at a minimum...

1:4000?

According to PaulSubetro the Telstra guy was never cleared. But it wasn't Bre.

 

[Willow weeps]

Funny how Karl made that speech about how the current Comish would never have made an arrest if it weren't for his team... Considering everything we know so far, HIS team should have made the arrest YEARS AGO

Apologies if this has already been answered, but how the * did it take over a decade to charge this guy?

Surely the first thing you'd do when a person is abducted is look at criminals in the area who have abducted or have attempted to abduct someone before... and then there's the whole Telstra angle, my god.

It's like when mum is watching an ABC murder mystery and they introduce the first character and she's like "nahhhhhhh, can't be that guy, it's too obvious!"

 

[luxury]

The investigations into the case are fishier than a Swanbourne Beach herring in a dinner suit!

That's why I also lean in the opposite direction when looking at that album cover.
Then the twin tower appears straight

Are you sure the album cover was from the 70's?
Because the human statue looks awfully like the accused CSK might look with a frock, wig and some rouge and lippy on.

I have the article somewhere, will try and find it

I can actually see MACRO not figuring out that Telecom and Telstra were one in the same.

Hey boss, got a suspect in our sights but he works for Telstra, or is it Telecom. Wait, which one is it we need to look for? Ah, ok, well na he doesn't work for them.

what the hell does it matter we have our man

We have A MAN, innocent till proven guilty. BRE is a sexual deviate from all accounts, but has to have a fair trial (of many months duration) to declare he is CSK. IMO

Or he could plead guilty and save the tax payers millions of dollars and the families of the victims days of pain. DNA does not lie

I think Grey Crow was referring to the tunnel vision of Macro focusing on Lance Williams as the primary suspect at the time.

Latest Podcast, looks interesting....

Mr Williams’ younger brother said he was interviewed twice by police. “I remember one guy, he was so adamant, ‘he’s the one, he’s done it’,” he said. “It was just this tunnel vision.

“I was pretty taken aback and a little bit upset. I remember one stupid question they asked once, ‘Have you ever seen your brother in women’s clothing?’, trying to make out he was some sort of pervert.”

So if back in the years not too long after the last of the alleged CSK murders, police were already asking questions about the CSK dressing up in womens clothing.

So it appears that at least one WAPOL officer had knowledge way back then, way back when apparently the now accused BRE was not on their radar and had never been on the radar (whatever the radar is).

Seeing as how there has not yet been any pre-trial information publicly released, that provides an explanation as to how at least one Police officer was following a lead about the CSK being someone that wore women's clothing, unless witnesses are presented during a CSK trial, that make it clear as to how Police would have had this women's clothing lead, there will forever be a huge question as to whether someone did indeed provide WA Police with some form of information about BRE early on. Information related to the CSK being someone who liked to dress up in women's clothing, from someone who knew who the CSK was or probably was, or who had been told by someone else who the CSK was or probably was.
