I agree Makara, and Dr W. A real sticking point for me is that, if NBC WAS at the bus stop, how does this tie in with two vehicles being seen? I do believe that two vehicles were involved and I think the police think so too, given the appeals for information about both family cars right from the beginning, plus the witness reports. If NBC was at the bus stop it was presumably to be picked up so he didn't need to bring his car or be seen in his car or heard leaving and returning from his home in his car...
Unless he was waiting at the roundabout to be collected, taken back to BC residence then both family cars were driven from there. But if that is the case, why on earth wouldn't he just walk along Brookfield Rd and be collected along that route somewhere - much darker and less conspicuous? MOO
I !!!!!! remember!!!!!! that!!!!! episode!!!!!!!!!!
I know people use them haphazardly, but I was talking more about the pattern in which they were used and in the context of their posts. It's not a discussion about what they did on the weekend, etc. It's about a murder. And they are making quite significant claims, considering they 'apparently' don't live in the area.
I really don't want to cross the line re sleuthing other posters though. Just find the whole thing quite interesting.
I can't find the thread for Danielle Hibbert so this is off topic and hopefully the mods will leave the link to the thread. Danielle's body has been found More sadness)

Oh no! That is just so sad. Angel here is the link for Danielle's thread.

Just a thought...would there be any type of clubs or hotels in that area which would have been open that Thursday night??...maybe he'd been playing pokies...lol...
With the roundabout I'm wondering if police were looking to identify & eliminate Prados.... if anyone had noticed one with the big ding in front.

Bwanna, Settled & Gold Suzuki all at NBC's house this arvo. Flag at full mast.
I'm still so intrigued about the roundabout. Why were the police so interested and needing to question people who were on it that night?
If it is true that NBC was at the bus shelter near the village, then he would have been seen on cc camera so the police wouldn't need random drivers' confirmation of that. Also, the fact that at least local who knows him could verify it was definitely him, then you would think this aspect would be done and dusted in terms of verification (if this is more than a rumour).
What else was it that they were stopping drivers about? Do they really think a driver would remember if they passed a particular car on the roundabout that night - I admit I wouldn't notice at all, if they were just driving through and we passed in the night? I wonder if there really was something else bizarre that happened there.
And why, why the obsession with that roundabout....when the perp would have been better off taking RG Road... going round in circles and getting dizzy....
Thursday night is late-night shopping here, but that finishes at 9pm.
Nearest pokies etc would be at Kenmore Tavern, about a kilometre away towards town - but again, that would have been long closed.
No other clubs or pubs that I'm aware of any where near.
And re Prados with a ding - it would take more than that for someone to take notice and remember, I suspect. I mean - I pass countless vehicles at that roundabout every day and night, including some in the wee small hours. And although I do tend to be perhaps a bit more observant than many people, I wouldn't remember anything that I passed unless there was something startlingly different, or odd, or remarkable in some way.
And as for remembering it weeks later?? No chance!
So - what WAS it?????? Is that an overdose of question marks????????????
Meant to express frustration at having to wait for dribs and drabs of information to leak out....
How about it might have just seemed like a good idea at the time... by one of the QPS sleuths.

Yeah, it could just be that they have to follow every lead in these situations. It may not be related.
It has personal number plates...don't know if I should put them on here. GBC was seen driving it regularly after the Captiva & Prado were impounded and after he crashed the Honda.Who owns the gold Suzuki ?
