oh man....ADMIN WARNING:
Well, there's an hour of my life I will never get back
95% of the member in here last night should all be on a TO for bickering, rudeness, personalizing, and otherwise off topic posts, resulting in a massive cleanup of over 80 posts.
This is unacceptable and if members go down this road again, we can close the general discussion thread and make it Media, Maps, Timeline *NO DISCUSSION*
So Frank Abbott, who was employed to "do odd jobs" in a scrap metal yard at Taree/Old Bar didn't know Tony Jones, who collected scrap metal around Wauchope?? Hmmmm.
OK, so it is clear ( which I thought I was earlier) , I was hoping not to have to type this all out, as it is distressing, but here we are..............

I hope that is clear, as you can clearly see FA was not mentioned in any of these conversations.
Yes I can clearly see what Lia has tweeted (which was also about 1/2 hr after) What she has tweeted is not what the witness said in court.@LiaJHarris
"The woman claimed the boy told her it was Frank Abbott who had killed William Tyrrell."

I don't know, all I know is what I heard..........Wonder why the Jurno's changed it, something has led them to do this as they all did.

It would have been changed due to the emphasis stressed by the Coroner and her assistant that NO IDENTIFYING information be divulged by the media as to the identity of the witnesses or the children being referenced in the testimony.
From what I have gleaned from what doc was good enough to share with us, was at the inquest the word ‘Pop’ was used. There was no identification of the person giving evidence nor was there any mention of who ‘Pop’ is.So is “ pop” FA. I’m totally confused !
Thanks , so confusing as it seems all media outlets have run with FA as the one the boys said. Very confusing indeed !From what I have gleaned from what doc was good enough to share with us, was at the inquest the word ‘Pop’ was used.

The confusion arose when the press, including LIA, used FA. This is apparently not what was said at all in court.
I think from there people can either draw their own conclusions or wait to see what comes out next week.
We need to respect the rights of the person giving evidence and the fact that there are no suppression orders in place, although pseudonyms are being used so perhaps we should leave it at that.
And again, thank you doc. We really do appreciate the long drives and hours that you’re putting in for us.
Either the media knows something they shouldn't (ie the identity of the witnesses whose identities have been suppressed) or they have made a mistake (misheard or misunderstood the evidence).Thanks , so confusing as it seems all media outlets have run with FA as the one the boys said.

They couldn't have misheard or misunderstood the evidence IMO.Either the media knows something they shouldn't (ie the identity of the witnesses whose identities have been suppressed) or they have made a mistake (misheard or misunderstood the evidence).
