Well hooly-dooly, recent events are a turn-up for the the books. I was on sabbatical from WS and heard the news late yesterday that someone had allegedly been taken into custody in connection with the murders.

The comitted sleuthers on this thread must be *advertiser censored*-a-hoop. Hopefuly now justice will be served for the CSK's victims and their families.
 
BE's partner posted this on her daughter's Facebook site back in July 2014 as a warning for her!!.....eerie

Subject: NEW TRICK FOR RAPISTS OR POSSIBLE ATTACKERS
Know what money you are carrying! You will see why as you read!
Be sure every lady is aware of this. Share it with your freinds.
Know what money you are carrying. This was the first I have heard of a
scheme like this.. I wanted to pass it along. Be safe! It is something
very serious to pay attention to.
Criminals are coming up with craftier, less threatening methods of
attack, so we have to be extra cautious. Read on.
I live near the Blue Mountains but I often work at North Ryde , staying
with friends when I'm there. As you know from Australia 's Most Wanted
TV program,as well as the new media, there is a serial killer in the
area. I just want to let you know about an "incident "
that happened to me a few weeks ago, and could have been deadly.
At first I didn't go to the police or anyone with it because I didn't
realise how serious this encounter was. But since I work in a jail and I
told a few people about it, it wasn't long before I was paraded into
Internal Affairs to tell them my story.
It was proximately 5:15 a.m. I had stayed with a friend there and was
on my way to work. I stopped at the Caltex Station to get petrol. I got
$10 petrol and a Diet Coke. I took into the store two
$5 bills and one $1 coin (just enough to get my stuff).
As I pulled away from the store, a man approached my truck from the back
side of the store (an unlit area). He was an approachable-looking" man
(clean cut, clean shaven, dressed well, etc.). He walked up to my window
and knocked. Since I'm very paranoid and "always looking for the rapist
or killer," I didn't open the window I just asked what he wanted. He
raised a
$5 bill to my window and said, "You dropped this." Since I knew I had
gone into the store with a certain amount of money, I knew I didn't drop
it.
When I told him it wasn't mine, he began hitting the window and door,
screaming at me to open my door, and insisting that I had dropped the
money!
At that point, I just drove away as fast as I could. After talking to
the Internal Affairs Department and describing the man I saw, and the
way he escalated from calm and polite to angry and volatile....it was
determined that I could have possibly encountered the serial killer
myself.
Up to this point, it had been unclear as to how he had gained access to
his victims, since there has been no evidence of forced entry into
victim's homes, cars, etc. And the fact that he has been attacking in
the daytime, when women are less likely to have their guard up, means he
is pretty BOLD.
So think about it...what gesture is nicer than returning money to
someone that dropped it?????
How many times would you have opened your window (or door) to get your
money and say thank you.... because if the person is kind enough to
return something to you, then he can't really be a threat....can he????
Please be cautious! This might not have been the serial killer... but
anyone that gets that angry over someone not accepting money from them,
can't have honourable intentions. The most important thing to note is
that his reaction was! NOT WHAT I EXPECTED! A total surprise!
But what might have happened if I had opened my door? I shudder to
think!
Forward this to everyone you know...maybe they can be as fortunate as I
was!
P.S. Ladies, really DO forward this to EVERYONE you know Even if this
wasn't a serial killer, he looked nice, he seemed polite, he was
apparently doing an act of kindness, but HE WAS NOT A NICE PERSON!!!
Men send it to all the women in your life. What you do today is
important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. Make it
a good one! Please forward to anyone you think might benefit from this
story.

$10 worth of petrol would get you from the Blue Mountains to North Ryde?
$1 for a Diet Coke at a servo??
 
Does WA have no body no parole, as has been implemented in other states?

Interesting if it's true she lived in the Blue Mountains at the time of those disappearances. Did he live there, too? Or did he go and visit her?

My guess is that she was not the original author of the article.....she is just one of probably many thousands of people who posted and shared that topic.......you can find it listed in the timeline of the daughter's FB page

I wouldn't jump to conclusions that she was in the blue mountains etc

It strikes me as one of those "share & beware" topics that a created for viral social media effect. Just interesting that she obviously is concerned about rape etc...(understandable) but little did she know that her partner is allegedly the CSK!!! WOW
 
I feel sorry for Lance Williams. He really has had his character dragged through the mud, along with others.

He stalked women. Had no alibi. Failed a lie detector test. And had a heap of circumstantial evidence against him.

While he has no doubt suffered, it's his actions that made him an obvious suspect.
 
So is there an ex? Going by the use of past tense in some news stories when describing partners.
Does anyone recall a warning from LE, along the lines of "beware cos time changes things and someone will eventually spill the beans" ? Sorry, too many threads to search through for the exact quote.
At the time, some of us thought it was in relation to Droc's claims about the group who were responsible, but could it have been about BE and his ex? Did she dob him in?
 
I find it weird that CGE has only left 3 posts public..one being the monkeys and another being the (more than likely )CSK . He clearly didnt want that pic tagged...probably didnt want it public either. Yet there she has it as her cover pic
Guess they were still together?
 
I seem to recall reading, earlier in this thread, I believe, about someone having fake magnetic taxi strips that you can apply (and remove) to your vehicle. In an adaptation of that idea, if the Telstra/Telecom vans/cars had Telstra/Telecom logos on them, then one could conceivably procure a white magnet and affix it over the logo so that the vehicle looks like just any other ordinary white van/car/vehicle.
He could have been pulling this little gimmick and getting away with it. That would then allow him to use work vehicles without being detected as using a work vehicle. It’s bloody devious.
This also reminds me of those Hollywood movies where they commit a crime with a car, then drive it away into a warehouse and high-pressure hose wash away the paint job to reveal another one of a different colour underneath. I’ve always wondered if that was possible, or just some Hollywood sleight of hand.

Ditto, life got busy and I hadn't visited WS this year but had been following quite closely for a long time before that (on and off)... can't believe we're up to thread #7 now... trying to scroll back to see all the goings on that's been happening this year!
I'm so glad this guys been charged ...
I was seriously hoping this would never remain an unsolved case. Now the families can finally get closure and by god I hope they find Sarah now for her family's sake too!!!!!!

I agree. I'm sure the police will check every address he lived at and if any young woman was raped/attacked or has gone missing in the vicinity.

Can we focus on actual facts rather than fiction? Why don't you think a business would not notice the extra fuel and mileage?
 
Long time lurker, first time poster.

I grew up in Perth was about the same age as Sarah when this happened, and as many women my age it was gripping, and we were all very afraid of getting taxis or leaving a night club on our own.

I have just worked out that I was in 2 degrees of separation from the CSK, BE, last week when doing work for a client who happened to have his step daughter working for them. It could have been 1 degree later this year, but I won't elaborate as otherwise I may breach client confidentiality.

I like many other women who grew up in Perth at this time have been intruigued by this case... and my heart goes out to the victim's families. It must be a bitter sweet time for them.... nothing will bring them back, but bringing this horrible man to justice must be somewhat cathartic for them.

And now he is off the streets and can't hurt anyone else.

Wonderful work all you have sleuthers have done on here. Whilst some of the theories were off track, you all kept the hunt alive, so that these beautiful women were not forgotten and today, the killer could be brought to justice.

I drive a fleet vehicle (work and personal use) and my work have never taken notice of mileage or fuel consumption since I've had it

I think there must be more victims in this time period - seems strange he would go quiet from 88 to 95.

Many of the sleuthers on here have mapped out a timeline of other missing persons - but there also may be unreported sexually motivated attacks that have never been reported to police that he may have been responsible for?

do you think he looks like LW. i just find out today thats its my mates brother
 
Excellent news regarding the arrest and charges.

With regards to SS, you can't be charged with murder with no dead body (well you can, but it wont get up in court). WAPOL will try and make a deal with him to lead them to the body, IMO.

You are incorrect.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_conviction_without_a_body

It happened with Azaria Chamberlain and Peter Falconio convictions.

Longer answer: If there is enough evidence that a person was murdered (eg significant blood at the scene of the crime to indicate a fatal injury), they don't need a body.

Do you work for the same company as the alleged killer? If not, you are assuming that all companies act the same way as yours based upon a statistical sample of 1.
