do we have a precise name & location for the 'coffee shop' where a plastic bag, containing JC's work blouse, was found?

Hi All
I am sorry I keep going on about JC and the CSK - I am aware that the general consensus on this site is that JC is not related to CSK. The comments from everyone does make sense re MO in 1988 etc! I also really appreciate the reasoning behind the views!
For some reason, my instinct is telling me otherwise and I am still pursuing this in regards to CSK's first murder.
I wanted to raise the fact that the Cottesloe abduction in 1989 (I have attached the article again to refresh) occurred in the car park directly opposite the location JC's car was found. Effectively the car park overlooks the same beach the Fiat was found.

thanks, janwa.
horrifyingly, only months out of the police academy, a 22year old, policewoman rookie officer - who'd never taken a statement before - was the ONLY PERSON TO BELIEVE a young girl claiming to have escaped the monsters who'd abducted her at knifepoint and kept her housed, tormented, and raped.
the young rookie's persistent demands for her superiors to take the girl's story seriously, were what led police to crack one of Australias most notorious cases.
so glad vince was persuaded by his persistent rookie
...testimony to 'fresh eyes & input' making a difference!

The above article states
A year later, a white Parmelia Hilton uniform blouse was handed in to police.
The blouse was a size 14 Ms Cutlers size and was one of 37 made exclusively for the hotels staff.
It had been found about the time Ms Cutler went missing with a pair of black pantyhose in a plastic bag under a table at the King Kebab takeaway in Centreway Arcade, Perth, a five-minute walk from the Parmelia Hilton.
no need for sorry, spinnaker, whatever keeps JC discussion and debate alive is what counts ... and if it eventually leads to finding both the person responsible, AND her, even better.Hi All

Here's something to ponder, perhaps. I was thinking about BRE's arrest and the TRG going in so hard and heavy for 1 bloke when you'd think maybe 3 police cars with say 8 armed officers would be enough to arrest 1 man? Wouldn't WAPOL have to justify somehow that sort of heavilly armed team in a residential environment, by that I mean this looks to me that WAPOL had a strong idea this bloke was armed in some way from what he had done, a knife or a gun so they were quite within their rights to take a large heavilly armed team in? This seems to me to indicate BRE (if he did commit these crimes) was armed during his later attacks and actually used a weapon on his victims? Maybe I'm wrong with how I'm seeing this, but it is just ringing bells to me about what may have happened with our beautiful Claremont girls, and other poor victims.
thank you, nini - exact location was a fact i hadn't retained from that article.
...odd that the article mentions JC's precise disappearance and immediately goes on to say that the car was 'found weeks later' (perhaps the paragraphs became jumbled and it referred to 'weeks after' the highway stalking incident(?)

I have raised the Iona (well-known) connection. Maybe it is not actually Iona, but a Catholic connection as occurs throughout - It is reported that 2nd wife (practicing Catholic) and SD Catholic. Few options:Thought I would raise Iona Presentation College, Catholic School for Girls in Mosman Park as features in all of the below:
JC – attended Iona

SS – Attended Iona
http://www.news.com.au/national/cla...d/news-story/21cde6933aafd13a378dd1c89aff974a
CG – Well reported she attended Iona and mother worked there
JR – Not sure if she attended
Lorrin Whitehead (attended Iona, Cottesloe Raised)

Would be interesting to know which school BE wives went to? (2nd wife family restaurant very close).
Has anyone else got info to add or clarify?
I think the police always assume the worst. Better to go in with too many officers than not enough.

Apologies if this has been covered before but here's another sexual predator, basketballer ("Tiny" Pinder) charged with rape in Perth during late 1980's-1990 and with a history of previous sexual assault. I clearly remember seeing him walking around Claremont during that era.
Apart from Claremont, there's a connection to Fremantle ... and the Parmelia Hilton nightclub, where he picked up a girl and was later charged with rape. Other sexual assault convictions followed.

JC was far too old for Tiny. He targeted teenagers and relied on fame to avoid being reported.
And what was up with the all those "selfie" type snaps of Cottesloe landmarks on this thread over the weekend. ?..looks like some plodders fancy styling themselves as "The Postcard Bandit"....
The only Postcard Bandit I am aware of is one who was a convicted Australian bank robber and is reported to have stolen and hidden millions of dollars.
I hardly call the grass at Cottesloe, a "Landmark".
Grasshoppers taking selfies? :thinking:
