After my last post where I was confident a murderer had planned to kill Carol and Russell before they left on their camping trip, now, just a few hours later, I reconsider a possible involvement of The Button-Man in the couple's disappearance.
This switch in my focus only shows how I can have absolutely no idea what befell them, but I'm fascinated by reviewing the article about Button-Man, link below, and particularly intrigued by the reported bizarre shot found on the wildlife photographer's camera.
"...They say no one knows he is near until he decides to make himself known. A wildlife photographer spent days taking shots in the area near the Button-Man’s camp. When he returned home and downloaded his photos to his computer there was one unexplained shot of the photographer asleep inside his tent. No one knows who took the shot..."
Reports about Button-Man tell of an extraordinary character – an expert bushman and stalker, a fierce protector of his remote habitat, and adept at crafting and hunting with "Indigenous-style spears."
I imagine he wouldn't well tolerate any stray drone potentially recording his activities.
No doubt LE located and questioned him, and I wonder whether they learned of any encounter between him and Russell +/or Carol, or Russell's drone.

Do you remember that Russell allegedly had an encounter with Button-Man in 2019?
From
Four people have gone missing within a 60km radius in the past year. Their fate remains a mystery
"Russell’s friend of almost 30 years, Robbie Ashlin, says it was on the King Billy Track about a year earlier that Russell and another mate had an encounter with a bushman who has been dubbed the Button Man...
Robbie says Russell encountered a man who was “agitated” and “let them know he didn’t want them to be camping there”.
Do you know anything about that encounter btw Russell & button man? I've tried googling & not coming up with anything about it
