What did he say, please? (No TV.)
This is what I quickly transcribed from the show. Important BBM.
10am yesterday, ACA was approached by Rickard attempting to sell his story.
His cousin Chris said …..
He is shocked, outraged. AR just wants power …. plays himself out as a puppeteer. Toxic person. Chris has cut him off. AR admits he uses ice, uses a fair amount. Not knowing (about Karen) is really taking a toll on the family. Chris wishes AR’d give the whole family a lift, and zip his lip.
He has used everyone around him, Borce and Karen have given him cars, he destroyed them. They gave him money, accommodation. He used Chris for money … from his grandmother’s inheritance, around $2,000 … it was never repaid.
Chris received a text from AR. Asking about a firearm for $1,300. (Didn't say when.)
Chris wants public awareness. Being quiet and not talking about it, he can’t move on.
AR called Karen 10 days prior (to her disappearance) asking for her to get him into rehab (pay for it), according to his ex-girlfriend.
Doesn’t know Karen's response
ACA said ….
He is a greedy stepson, wants to sell his grubby story.
AR is claiming he and Karen had an intimate relationship.
Last demand from AR to ACA ….. $200,000. ACA played along, but would never have given him the interview due to ongoing police investigation.
Charlie Bezzina said …
Grasping for cash in this set of circumstances is disgusting.
3AW commentator said … AR is not high on list of credible people.
Police said … this is an ongoing investigation. Not going to talk about any part in detail.
They showed AR on video … smoking a cigarette held by a big pair of pliers, and packing a small bag. Don't know why, or if it is old or recent video.
