Here he is sitting in a cell hearing about all the hooha and POIs at the inquest he’d have to relax and feel home free.
Maybe that’s when he’d blab.

I am wondering if he did blab whilst inquest was on to someone in jail?

A few of us suggested if someone was in jail at the time that they may blab and a cellmate may come forward.
 
Can’t read it zoomed in, could you tell us what the article says ?

case of a man accused of a murder that occurred 26 years ago remained unresolved yesterday after a jury could not reach a unanimous verdict ! Despite 21 hours deliberations over the past four days, the three men and nine women of the jury failed to agree on the guilt or otherwise of Frank Abbott, who had pleaded not guilty to the murder of 17-year-old Helen Mary Harrison in 1968. The three-week trial of Abbott, 53, who is the caretaker of a property near Taree, is believed to be the first to be held so long after the murder it concerned. Miss Harrison, who was a sales assistant at Miller's general store at Pitt Town, near Windsor, disappeared on March 16, 1968, while riding home on her bicycle. Her body was found in a shallow grave in bushland near East Kurrajong, north of Richmond. The Crown alleged during the trial that Abbott had admitted to three people that he had murdered the girl but that they had not told anyone until years later because Abbott had threatened them.
 
As revolting and heinous a crime as sexual offending against children is, it seems so unlikely that it would progress to murder.. especially when the offender is elderly. Unless it was an accident... IMO

However, an alleged murderer can also be a paedophile..... sadly one doesn’t exclude the other...,

This makes me feel sick. And maybe PS did witness something.. but FA clearly has form when it comes to threatening witnesses. IMO
