Certainly possible.I don't see why it simply couldn't be a confident guy who was a well known "face" in that scene who had either been chatting to the girls on the night or have seen them around enough to be recognised by them.
He was prime suspect up until 2004. After that we don't know. We know that pre-2004 some Macro members were on record saying he would never be ruled out. And that would be true barring a DNA read or someone else being convicted. Unfortunately we have no reliable visibility as to whether they do have DNA and he has been ruled out or not.If I am to believe that LW is the prime suspect
He had no friends.then I'd need to ignore all that has been said about him being a loner/social outcast.
Once that we know about which is more than anyone else. He gave me a lift multiple times but I was hitch hiking. I don't recall if he ever offered me a lift when I was just walking along the Highway but it's quite possible.From what I have heard he might have been seen driving around and he may have offered a lift to an undercover D but how many times did he offer lifts and was seen?
While it's the biggest flaw in LW theory it's not extremely unlikely. Someone had to get a 100% strike rate. Sure, it's more likely someone in a taxi or a dude who looks like Ryan Gosling with mad pick up skillz, but all the same, we're looking at 100% strike rate. Maybe it was a blitz/pick up combo which makes the 100% strike rate more likely? Also, we don't know how he got them in the car. Could have used a Bundy like trick or what Adrian Bailey used.How many times was he seen to park up on the periphery of Claremont and wait or loiter on the streets? If he wasn't often stopping to offer lifts often then his strike rate for when he did must have been around 100%.......either that's accurate and he is the guy or the maths tells us its extremely unlikely.
Apparently he was an expert stalker. He follow girls without them knowing. Apparently he admitted to police he had been stalking women since the late 80s. Every thurs, fri, sat and sun nights. 8 years of stalking 4 nights per week. No other distractions (i.e. friends and other interests) except thinking about how to be a better stalker. It's not that much a stretch for him to be able to develop an A-grade abduction technique.When DM in her book said he was stalking women, what did she mean? That he drove slowly while they walked from pub to club? He followed them home? unlikely the 2nd option as it's written he kept the same route continuously. If its the first then we have a lot of stalkers in Perth.......they just call it doing bog laps.
Macro put heavy surveillance on LW for months. Routine stalking. No murders. Picked up an UC and let her go. This can quite easily be explained (either way). The CSK was most likely a planner. Planned his murders months in advance and during that time sexually fantasized about it. He probably set a date in advance meaning that all other nights he was out stalking (if it was LW) then he was "off". On those nights he was never going to do a kill. So the night he picked up the UC he may have been "off". He also may have picked her up to test the waters and see if police were watching.
There's no doubt there's some big short comings in LW theory, but this is a case where there are major short comings in every POI's theory.
I don't think interested so much but rather at ease and trusting. It's human nature to favour good looking people. While this is a better fit than LW talking them into his car, who's our guy? Why did he stop?More likely he is confidence man and is not only good at striking up a conversation but is easy enough on the eye that girls would be interested.
