On the Greg Lynn committal proceedings Crown Prosecutor Mr Dickie said 'It is clear hopefully from the document, and if it's not clear from the document it's clear hopefully from the charges put before the court, that it is alleged of course that the accused acted with murderous intent when he allegedly killed the two victims.'

While we are all here, how’s Button Man doing?

He was featured on the show High Country and the Police women had to go interview him in the middle of the bush, off course Button was portrayed by an actor

We don't know for sure what triggered the confrontation, we only have the story told by a liar, but the drone was Hill's and Lynn destroyed it.

Not a huge leap to see how a disagreement kicks off. Argument about Lynn’s hunting, RH says he has footage or will take footage, Lynn points out it’s illegal to fly drones in national parks and escalates from there with some tit for tat.

 

[Teen Wolf]

That could all be true. And it could also be true that the accused double murderer was known to get in altercations with people who flew drones over the oval right next to his (former) residence...

 

[Longmembrey]

There's a theory in this thread of what Lynn might say if he were to try a self defence defence, and it was about the only thing he could say. It's played out exactly.

This theory came from imagination.

Yep, not blowing my own trunpet but it was predictable:

Lynn not only destroyed the drone, he took their phones, keys, knife, side mirror and burnt them and their entire campsite. Imagine the poor forensics fella that had to make a list of all the items Lynn has burnt or discarded…rumour has it the list is still growing.

IMO

Did it interfere with his beekeeping?

IMO

Might have missed this but has it been reported that GL destroyed the drone or that it’s just missing with the other items?

I believe he confessed that he had incinerated the drone.

I've been reading this thread from the beginning and it has taken me 4 days to get to page 185.... I have a long way to go yet, but I don't want to miss a thing so I can't skip forward. Amazing posts, some incredible ideas and puzzle solving skills.... have got me hooked to this thread. I'm curious as to why would GL would take RH's car keys? What would be the point? Has this been covered?

He took a lot of stuff that wasn’t burnable, phones, drones, leather boots and probably keys. They’re all at the bottom of a river somewhere. IMO

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Why did he take their phones and the car keys? Did he want it to look like they’d left? Or did those items have blood on them?

They wouldn’t burn.

If he led to the bodies why not them? Incriminating evidence?
Whole thing is just strange.
Relevant to world standards Victoria is a massive state with plenty of rural areas. A lot of weird stuff seems to go down

One theory I read was he did this to make it look like there was a possible robbery of the couple.

 

[LeChatNoir]

Great effort. If you read everything it's a great way to gain some form of perspective to draw your own conclusions especially leading up to the trial as we speak

It's the behaviour of a killer who doesn't know his victims phone is somewhere in the car or the trailer.

I'm entertaining the idea that GL did not know about RH's second phone which was in all likelihood in his pocket. Not taking away any 'smarts' from GL, but having found 2 mobile phones even a highly intelligent person in a hurry to cover up a crime scene would be satisfied that he had taken all the phones. He wouldn't be wasting time looking for more mobile phones, when he already found two. Just feels right to me that GL didn't have a clue about RH's 2nd mobile phone. Does that feel right to everyone else?

 

[LeChatNoir]

I don't understand why he would lock the car if that was the case. Surely if he wanted it to look like a robbery, he would welcome other campers finding the site and possibly going through the car and leaving their finger prints everywhere, thus contaminating the site. Maybe he would have even left the car door open? Why lock it and take the keys? I don't think thieves would lock the doors when they leave??? Just doesn't feel right. There has to be a reason he did this.

 

[MrsBlueSky]

I believe he confessed that he had incinerated the drone.

So all the talk about the drone is solely from GL's version of events and nobody else saw RH operating a drone to verify it, is that correct?
Is that because we are made to think why would he lie about something like that?

 

[Quivorir]

While we are all here, how’s Button Man doing?

Holy shit I had ano idea this is legit. We camp in the high country a lot and one mate mentions this guy. I just assumed he was talking shit as nobody else has ever mentioned to me and being where we are I can't google at the time. Then I forget by the time I've got home. Just read an encounter on reddit. How terrifying.

You missed it.!

Nobody but Lynn and the weed sprayers saw the drone but off course not with a picture of Hill holding it. But here's one for the sake of it. It was his new toy called Fred.

Good point. That part does seem bizarre. Just a thought, maybe a passerby checked out the site and decided to lock the car themselves. Did GL state he locked the vehicle?

If you get a chance watch a bit of the High Country it's sort of a take off the all the incidents up there and there is an actor playing the button man but meantime

The guy just want's to be left alone. He doesn't harm people just wants to know what they're doing in his patch and who they are. Then he keeps to himself.

 

[Xtreme]

Who names their toys ?

BRB going to name my PS5 controllers B1 & B2, while my Xbox controllers shall be known as Fred Flintstone & Barney Rubble.

Exactly

 

[Awakening]

Personally, I love Button Man. The older I get, the more I interact with people, the more I envy his lifestyle.

Except every time I type or read Button Man, I get the Muffin Man song stuck in my head.

Anyone at the trial today?
