The activity in the forest comes across as fast and tidy don’t you think? If Sam was bleeding on the ground, or her shoe fell off in the bush for example, they would have found that and raised the alarm about it being suspicious or a crime scene etc from the get go you’d think. Vicpol’s quite early inference that Sam probably didn’t leave the forest alive, if in fact there was no physical evidence at the site (is that even possible?), would have needed to have come from some other intel, like the metrics from her phone which we’ve already covered.Thanks for this article Rocket. It provides the info I’d been searching for re the timeline of when Police were notified :
Murphy was supposed to be back at around 9am, according to Allan. By 11am, two hours after her scheduled return home, Allan said her husband Mick made the phone call to police to report her missing.
I recall that Mick did some searching himself before calling police, which indicates there was not much time to disappear with SM & remove all trace of her from the suggested crime scene.
A car close by would’ve been essential because of the time-frame and clean up. jmo
“Det Acting Supt Mark Hatt said there was nothing to indicate that Murphy left the area of her own accord and ruled out a medical incident.”
