Generalisation: I believe that it's most likely the CSK has stalked the streets of Claremont for a number of years prior to the initial abduction and sexual assault at Karrakatta in 1995. He is a gifted stalker and knows the streets of Claremont like the back of his hand, he knows the vulnerable times for women leaving clubs
He is not answerable to anyone on weekends, as in if he is missing for a period of time of a weekend period no one would notice or think this is out of the ordinary. Which is why I think it's likely he has an ordinary 9-5 weekday job.
SS left the CBV about 2:00AM and then walked down to the phone box on the corner of stirling highway and stirling road. She telephoned for a Taxi at 2:06am, requesting a Taxi to Mosman Park.
Witness accounts place SS on the opposite side of the road to the phone box on Stirling Highway, which was shortly after she made the phone call to Swan Taxis. The Taxi driver stated 2:09am he drove past the
Cnr Stirling Highway and Stirling Road and SS was not there. The witnesses that drove past and saw SS standing on the side of the road stated that they saw headlights behind them approaching the intersection as the lights turned green, they did not see that car come through the intersection. One of the witnesses suggests to go back and check on SS, but they decide not to.
I think it's most likely the driver of that vehicle was the CSK. The reason I believe this is due to the limited amount of time from when SS made the phone call at 2:06am and the Taxi driving past at 2:09am and SS not being there. That leaves only three minutes. I believe it's most likely that the driver of that vehicle stopped, had a small conversation with SS during which he gained her trust and gave off the persona that he was a harmless person. I think it's most likely that he had met SS previously, but in a very limited capacity of which no connection could be made. An example of this is a clerk behind the counter at the MVR. It was enough to gain her confidence in any case. SS accepted a lift and willingly got into the vehicle. The reason I discount a blitz attack in this instance is due to the limited time frame (3 mins), she was standing out in the open and easily visible to witnesses, which would have made a blitz attack "high risk".
Once SS was in the vehicle, it wouldn't have been long before she was threatened and controlled with a weapon. I believe it is most likely that this weapon was a large knife that was large enough to pose a significant threat to SS. SS was then driven to a location within a 5km radius of Claremont CBD, where she was sexually assaulted and murdered.
I think it probable that the location that SS was driven to, was Karrakatta cemetery. The reason I believe this is due to the previous abduction and rape at Karrakatt, I believe it's likely that the CSK knew that this location worked previously and reasoned that it would work again. I also believe that Karrakatta cemetery has the potential to still contain traces/evidence of this attack even 20 years on, a peice of clothing, jewellery, a shoe, handbag, anything is possible and Karrakatta I believe needs to be searched line abreast with metal detectors and ground penetrating radar.
I think it's most likley that SS was murdered at Karrkatta then transported to another dump site/location. This location could be absolutely anywhere and suggesting anywhere that might be a possibilty is nothing but pure speculation. I think it's most likley that SS was murdered then transported as it would be extremely risky to transport a live person in the back of a vehicle. In regards to blood/trace evidence being left in the vehicle, I believe this was of little consequence to the CSK as the CSK could either clean the vehicle afterwards or have lined the vehicle entirely with plastic. I believe it's most likley a plastic lined boot/cargo area was used, as this is easy to dispose of after the body has been dumped and easy to explain to police that he was protecting the vehicle's carpet from paint/chemical spillage. It's also probable, but unlikley that another seperate vehicle was used for the disposal, something like a van or panel van. SS may have been transported to her disposal site the following night, which is probable, but unlikely.
