CSK? said:

This is a previously unmentioned business, might not be of relevance but it is worth sleuthing since there were reported links of screen printing materials being found on victim restraints.

That's what I am waiting for as well.

I have just spoken with my brother who was in the computer and printer repair business in the 1990s and asked him whether he remembered ACR. He said YES. He would see them at the auction houses in and around Perth. Described them as shady.

Now this is the clincher....he said that at the time of the murders someone associated with ACR got in the media (uncomfirmed) suggesting theories about the offenses. Apparently then Police Commissioner Falconer replied by saying they didn't need any help with theories.

This article is where the familial DNA report came from. It was released 4 days ago and discussed in the thread.

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding you. What is being 'tweaked'?

That teenager was restrained with what she reportedly told police were ties, and driven to Karrakatta cemetery where she was raped.

Hi all- post time poster so hopefully I don't stuff it up. Of course, admin please delete if I have overstepped the mark.

In a previous thread (I can't find it, sorry) someone mentioned that they had found BRE's parents on the electoral roll. Historical crime reasearch is a big interest of mine so I thought I'd see if there was anything interesting about his family on ancestry.com. If people are still living they are hard to research, but there are electoral rolls up until 1980. At the G** St, Huntingdale addresss previously mentioned, lived another BRE in 1980, same intitials but different first and middle names. B**** R****** Edwards (male) and E******** K**** Edwards (female). His occupation is listed as technician. The same people are on the 1972 Roll living in a caravan park at Margaret River. Occupation: technician.

I'll make it clear before someone points it out that this BRE is obviously not the suspect, who would have been 12 in 1980.

Please feel free to ignore, I'm more comfortable as a reader than a poster.

Wish I knew what BE said on CG fb. The 3 monkeys definitely had 2 other comments at some point as it comes up sometimes.
The pic of BE and CG also had 2 more comments that have been removed. One no doubt asking why he was tagged or to remove the tag.

I think you find the dump sites to be within say 2-3kms of these Exchanges. E.g. Baldivis and Carabooda I beleive

Edit: Like I have suggested several times on here previously use ADSLExchange website address feature to give you crow fly distances to nearest exchanges.

According to The Subiaco Post, police believe the killer used a mid-1990s white Holden Commodore VS series 1 to abduct and kill at least two of his victims.



To abduct and kill would imply no dragging into nearby computer shops..or that this article is wrong

Question. All of this talk about the dump sites being in the location of Telstra Exchanges.
I have done a search, and there is nothing I can see on Woolcoot Rd, Wellard, and Pipidinny Rd, Eglington. I am currently plotting everything on a map, so any help to pinpoint these would be a great help.

Telstra became Telstra in 1993, previously named Telecom. I cannot recall the reason for the name change tho, I do remember when it happened, all the pay phones changed with the new colours and logos.

Thanks. I had done that, but with lack of Exchange coming up in the location of the bodies, that it had been suggested that Telstra personnel had smelt something decomposing from an the exchange, and that it had been suggested that they were close enough for BE to observe the dump sites or "feel" close, led me to the conclusion they were quite local to the sites. Perhaps there were strong winds that day...

Really interesting stuff. You might well get told that you shouldn't be sleuthing family members but you haven't actually mentioned names. This info could prove really useful in linking the man arrested to businesses in the Claremont area.
