Great news!!!
Here comes subjudice. The gag will go on.

Not until he's charged.

Once that happens, he is under the authority of the court.

 

[Curiousasacat]

Yes, I too had an awful feeling he would take the easy way out. Relieved for her mum.

Now lets hope they get his justice correct this time.

I am so happy they got him : )

<modsnip> That's why he nicked off.:twocents::furious:

Can't you just hear them now at that womens' mag, holding the presses, hoping to get another scoop on the offender once he's charged. Mock outrage. Planning the special issue for Vic only. JMO

Im really surprised he didnt "run" further away.

 

[Ladida]

Thank goodness. I also can't believe he was still in Melbourne.

People with asthma are able to purchase ephedrine at the chemist. MOO

Sorry, in all that excitement I forgot to mention this post; very clever thinking. I'm positive drugs definitely had some part to play in this tragedy.

Who would give such a lowlife a hiding place?

 

[FeistyKel]

What is LE? Have to say the cops are making me very proud lately. Given how much stick they cop, how poorly they are paid, they have been doing a top job.

Not strictly on topic (sorry!) but i found this a very interesting read for those wondering about the horrific ordeal the detectives must go through.

I've been thinking more about it since I met a man whose son is actually one of the top homicide squad detectives in Victoria and presided over the Jill Meagher case (and I imagine this case too).

Among the many victims of prolonged and unsolved murder investigations there is often one group that gets little recognition - detectives who work on the cases.

The pressure is well-known among senior hands in the Homicide Squad, particularly since the death of Detective Sergeant Steve Leach.

Mr Leach was one of the state's most experienced homicide investigators and worked on the Ivan Milat murders, the disappearance of Samantha Knight and spent two years walking through massacre sites and talking to survivors of the Balkans war during a secondment to the European War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague.

While on sick leave, Mr Leach walked into a weapons storeroom and shot himself dead.

At his funeral, Father Jim Boland spoke of how seeing the effects of evil and cruelty of the worst kind for so long had a cost.

Who would give such a lowlife a hiding place?

Family .... or another lowlife. Seems as though he has destroyed his vehicle so was probably not able to get very far away, and he's way too recognisable now to move around freely on public transport.

Good on ya Vic police. Now if we could only say the same about the judicial system!

More affectionally known as the Soggies. :rocker:

That is interesting somanto, pre-kids, I was a critical incident stress debriefer - I always wanted to work with emergency services personel like this. I can't imagine the trauma, but they often tend to shut it off and compartmentalise, and are not interested in 'talking' it through. I understand that, too. It's quite an interesting topic.

 

[Curiousasacat]

I want to know why Special ops were used?
