Great sleuthing, everyone!!
CANDAN Industries ….. CANDxxx and ANgxxx … of course! Totally on the mark, Good! And extensive planning of Novy’s demise while she and the children were away over the long summer break.
And the hiring of the carpet cleaner, Mr C. Yes, very possibly to remove any fallen hair, lint, particles from a clean-up person, their shoes, a blanket/tarp ……. Novy may not have been murdered inside the house, simply incapacitated through drugs or a massive blow to the head.
Also, I have recently watched a 48 Hours episode (bit of an addict ... loads of episodes on the CBS News site) where a murdering husband drugged the children so they would sleep very heavily on the fateful night.
Makes me wonder if police were crawling all over this case from the get-go as they possibly smelled or detected heavy cleaning agents (including carpet cleaner fluid) throughout the house, and there was an uncanny minimal amount of fingerprints on doorknobs and other surfaces – and perhaps NONE of Novy’s fingerprints in some heavy traffic areas.
Was an incapacitated Novy placed in the back of a ute in the garage, one muffled gunshot, and then taken away? (Plenty of 'garage' murders .. according to 48 Hours :giggle
. Was Novy’s car driven away, and the ute backed out of the garage with its cargo?
Another thing I was wondering, was the ute that may have been involved in this crime reported as a stolen vehicle? Then dismantled and buried with other stolen vehicles?
