Thanks to everyone for such good discussion over the last week. I haven’t had much to contribute but have been grateful for the discussion here.
Have to say though that I’m a little bit devastated that websleuths will possibly be offline just as Spedding hits the witness box. What bad timing
We can take this discussion to the WS Facebook pages if the site is still down.If you mean with the website being down this weekend ... Tricia 'hopes' it will be up on Monday (US time) so sometime Tuesday our (Aus) time. And that is barring any unforeseen issues with the repairs. Could be even longer.

Oh, I have a fake FB that I use to look at WS cases. I assumed others did as well. lolWe could... except then we don’t remain anonymous
And we are 100% sure he was there that day unlike the other ones mentioned..BS and Donohoe.The likelihood that the perfect crime has been committed is so low. It would have needed to be so well planned, and even then there were variables that could not have been controlled (ie. when would William be alone, when would all the neighbours be occupied and not watching, etc).
It is far more likely that certain conditions randomly came together to set the scene for an unplanned crime (although probably fantasised about and rehearsed in different ways in the perpetrator’s mind). So then Occam’s Razor comes into play.. who just happened to be there when William ran down (?) the hill on that fateful day? PS would be the most obvious and is therefore no.1 on my list. BS had reason to have been there (delivering the spare part). RD was also in the area and quite possibly could have chosen to drive/walk down Benaroon Drive given his likely close proximity and happened upon William.
But coming back to Occam’s Razor, PS is the most likely suspect. And considering the lack of anyone to confirm his alibi and his obvious inconsistencies, I can understand why he was a focus for Jubelin. IMO
I agree it is unlikely, but not impossible. If somebody had certain urges and fantasies that they controlled their whole lives, perhaps the deterioration of frontal lobe function that often happens in older age means that judgement can be impaired. Although uncommon, there are a number of men who are convicted of their first sexual offence in their older years. IMOPS's testimony was really sketchy. And he had the perfect location and circumstances to commit this awful deed.
But he has no prior history of sexual crimes, as far as we know. It seems odd that a man never acts out for 60 plus years, and then suddenly kidnaps and kills a young neighbor child. It seems so unlikely to me.
