This has been one avenue I have researched quite extensively ThaiBali....can you link.... even if paywallled...with a few sentences...
I may have missed something.....But I have found no evidence (MSM) that this individual himself is "Ruthless"
Stupid yes!!!...desperate to dig himself out of a hole because of tax evasion and failed business enterprises....but no evidence via MSM - that I have found of any physical harm to anyone....
I haven't been able to find any evidence to link him at all with Karlie....Tidbits from MSM mention her association with the drag racing community...some how seems important..and the dates of his transition from Drag Racing King....into underworld drug dealer seem strangely coincidentally to fall within the same time frame of Karlie's big adventure to leave Alice and travel and find work.....and sooo very sadly...ohhh the ???? never been explained relationship with Darren Ashley..... the same man who tried to put up the defence it was a MC club involved in the murder of his wife...
Then the question mark would be... that the crime commission stated that he was aware that he was under surveillance and conducted business in person...The August 2008 photos on Hazels FB show our littlest angel in front of "The Bosses Car".....I am wholeheartedly convinced this was one of Brett's cars...as he was known as "The Boss" or "Skunk" in the drag racing community..
You then have the crime stopper/informer/exclusive Advertiser comments of a 25k drug debt and a 5K bounty....
Ohhh just to confuse things throw in a bit of police corruption - excuse is PTSD..of a cop involved in the Golf Brazen shakedown...may be legit..who knows...
Brett Stevens...No MSM report I have found suggests any untoward/Ruthless behaviour...... His accussed.... associates on the other hand...the syndicate he became engaged with are what I would personally consider ruthless....if one of your couriers has the ears hacked off and is then set alight.....or a car detailer/modifier - expert - say a judge of the drags Summernats in Canberra...who worked on a vehicle for this Crime Boss (Can't name...cause the <modsnip> is yet to face justice)... is shot and killed by three masked Rebels bikies....well that seems ruthless..
and.....all the while a <modsnip> with his look at me...I'm untouchable lifestyle...is free...
Hopefully this less than human days are numbered and no police corruption via the vast amounts of $$$$$ that can be thrown around will delay justice...
How and if it has any baring at all on what happened to Karlie or Khandalyce.....I can't link...but IMO...stems from this ugly <modsnip>...
