Forensic specialists will commence their search among bushland over the coming days.
Family of pilot charged with murder of missing campers speak
IMO, a couple of young drunks would make a lot of mistakes and have been caught much earlier. I thought it was someone very cold-blooded, efficient and effective, so am not so surprised that he is a pilot. Pilots aren't hired for their inter-personal skills, or their empathy for other people. They have to be very self-confident, efficient, unfazed by danger.As with some others of you, I wasn't expecting someone like GL to be the (alleged) culprit. My guess was 2 or more younger guys, rough and tough, not too bright, maybe drunk and possibly unemployed. Who would have thought a family man and pilot?
Really? you go walking through the undergrowth?Yes, a lot of people walk on tracks but we never did. I've seen more snakes in my backyard than I ever have in the bush. We've had death adders, brown snakes and one red belly black snake, plus a lot of other critters.
He may have driven along a track and stopped at a suitable location where he could drag them a very short distance so they wouldn't be visible from the track. Alternatively he could have chosen a track that he knew was rarely travelled and dumped/buried them there.
As LE said the vegetation was thick, that suggests to me that they were dumped/buried away from the track, but by the same token he had to be able to drive there.
Really? you go walking through the undergrowth?
Done
Regarding Daily Mail story this morning (which I now think is wrong) indicating that GL disclosed where 2 x bodies are buried:
If GL has co-operated with Police - what was his incentive?
...
I'm sticking with my theory that he has told them nothing and made no admissions. If they don't find bodies or the trailer this case could be 100% circumstantial and hard to prove?
Bail was probably 1000/1 against anyway so Lawyer advised him not to bother applying this morning because of the serious charges that he is facing and the prosecution being given more time to put all of the evidence together due to the complicated and rare nature of this case?
They may also be DNA. For instance Mr Hill and Ms Clay's wallets were found on the floor of Mr Hill's 4WD; the cards were spilled on the floor but, according to one witness bank card and credit cards and cash were missing. In doing that the perpetrator may have left DNA.
You must have overheard my conversation this morning. A good friend who enjoys shooting (don’t quite get it ….however), camping, fishing etc ….he’s thoughts were that the drone got a little too close to GL who for what ever reason maybe have been doing something suss …. If reported may have affected him getting a security pass. Also could you image the current wife and children having no idea of what he has been doing would be in total shock.My feeling is that if GL was caught doing something like illegal hunting, or if he got mad and shot the drone then he could have been worried about possible charges affecting his job as a pilot, as I imagine that any charges could lead to a suspension. He might have been worried about RH and CC reporting him and that could have been a motive to get rid of them.
I don’t think he’d have shot the gas bottle, what would be the point? He’d have to still go and set the campsite on fire, and by then most of the gas would’ve leaked out. Don’t believe what you see in the movies. I reckon a better bet is that he turned the gas on slow inside the tent and lit a fire, hoping the leaking gas would fuel it.
I actually wonder if he got annoyed by the drone and shot it out of the air. That would’ve made Russell furious and provoked a fight.
That's what I'm wondering as well, what would his motive have been - it appears as per the article that GL left her for another woman and they weren't even living together then.
There are not any walking tracks as such up there. 4WD tracks yes but not walking tracks to my knowledge.
So he now has 6 months of sitting in big boy prison, waiting for his committal hearing.
"Soon after the court appearance, a prison van was seen arriving at Sale police station.
Lynn was brought up from his cell and bundled into the truck before the heavy security gates opened and he was driven away."
Family of man accused of murdering missing campers Greg Lynn breaks silence
100% agree. Notwithstanding the previous wife who died suddenly, I wouldn't be surprised if we find other missing / murdered people within a remarkable radius of where GL has been known to travel and campIMO it is extremely rare for an event like this to happen anywhere in the world.
Offender aged in mid 50's with no criminal record. Multiple victims aged in their 70s and being unknown to the offender. Crimes taking place outside of a domestic place. Not gang or group related. Not drug related. Not race related. Not robbery or financially related.
Murder rates have been steadily dropping since the 90's and is largely attributed to CCTV and mobile phones.
"If" you were a modern day serial killer you may likely go to very remote places like this with no CCTV and no mobile phone coverage to select victims. You might wait until the perfect opportunity arose, many serial killers escalate so this could be the first time there has been multiple victims.
I believe that leopards do not change their spots. People do not suddenly "snap" in their mid 50's without having a history of snapping before. I do not see Russell and Carol initiating this confrontation, they were an elderly retired couple seeming to want some quiet time away.
I am sure investigators will be looking at what this suspect has been doing for the last 30 years. Where he has been camping before (when by himself) and if anyone has disappeared into thin air in the times he has been in the vicinity. Has there been events in his life that may have triggered violent behavior at the same time people have gone missing. eg. loss of job or being stood down, breakdown of relationship etc. How long has he carried guns?
They have to build a case proving that he murdered Russell and Carol first and hopefully their bodies are found soon.
All of this IMO of course.
I thought that too. I expected manslaughter. Even just one manslaughter charge and then another charge later.
Police publicly proposed the accident scenario. But I wonder if they actually believe that scenario. Perhaps they came up with this more palatable scenario to get him to talk?
In the case of William Tyrrell, NSW have suggested a fall from a balcony and some have said this scenario is unlikely and might be a strategy to get their suspect to talk.
Melbourne Remand Centre in Protection UnitI wonder if he is being held out at Fulham? (10 mins from Sale) Or up to Melbourne? I don’t think he’ll have an easy time of it, no matter where he goes.
