Hello everyone,
I might look brand new but I've been here from the beginning avidly lurking, reading every single post and urging the thread on in the rare quiet moments. Like everyone else here, I desperately want answers. It's just so hard to come to terms with something like this happening. I'd be a nutcase with WS, where I find comfort seeing how others think and feel like I do and I'm not alone in my sorrow .
I registered today because of recent posts that refute the rumour that driving past GBC's house and having time to see anything going on in his front yard is unlikely. I strongly disagree. It's not only likely, it's almost unavoidable if you're entering or exiting Boscombe Rd.
I think the posters who suggest that seeing into the property is unlikely as you drive past have forgotten that the entry to GBC's property is at the start of the easement that leads up to Boscombe Road. Therefore, all cars on Brookfield Road that want to enter Boscombe Rd NEED to at least slow down in front of his very house. The same if you are exiting Boscombe Rd onto Brookfield Rd - you need to actually stop to check for traffic - and you stop practically at GBC's gate. Any driver that happened to have been coming out, or going into, Boscombe Rd that night and necessarily stopped or slowed in front of GBC's house would have had time to notice a car parked in front of his stairs (it's likely GBC parked the car with the back to the stairs IMO for easier access and it's also likely he opened all the doors to block visibility from the road to what was going on IMO). There's not much movement after dark in Brookfield and this is precisely what a slowing driver would notice IMO, especially if it happened quite late at night.
The above rumour is also one of the first ones I heard - very early on, when the thought that GBC might have something to do with it was still not the thing you'd say in public - on 25th April when my partner and I were searching our property hoping to find Allison or clues to her disappearance. My partner turned to me even as we peered under lantana bushes and said, "oh, did I mention [someone at his work] has a friend who reported to police seeing (above rumour)?" It was then it really hit me that we'd probably not find Allison alive. After that I waited for the rumour to be mentioned on these pages - and it did, but surprisingly only after a long while. I have tried to register before but this IPad (which has been surgically attached to me for the last 2 months) wouldn't let me, for some reason. Part of me thought it was a good thing that I was not involving myself in WS because I was so emotionally involved as it was. But I couldn't keep quiet any longer.
I'm not saying the driveway sighting is more than a rumour, but I personally believe that if GBC in fact carried Allison down those stairs (I don't think his carport has internal access into the house) and placed her in the car, it would have taken him quite some time, even if he had help. Time enough for any Boscombe Rd resident entering or exiting the easement to have noticed. (Note: The Boscombe Rd I'm referring to is the section leading up to the State Forest, not the section where the local school is.)
