That "access point" is still another barbed-wire fence away from the northernmost dam.

That barbed wire fence the police officer is climbing over is on the corner of the phone dam, on the road and right beside the bushes that were excavated. It’s the one I referred to before that leads straight to the red cross in the paddock right beside where the phone was found in the dam. The top of that section of the fence is wood so you can climb over without standing on the barbed wire (like in the photo). I don’t think PS would have gone to this trouble but he’s possibly tall and agile so maybe he did. Just exploring options and that’s plausible.

The alternative that you’re suggesting (correct me if I’m misunderstanding) is that it was thrown from further up the road at a greater distance?

Yes, up hill a little way, from about where I've marked the orange dot in the direction of the arrow.

No, look, here is the fence the police officer is climbing.

It's here: Google Maps

The boomerang shaped dam is to the left, beyond the fence that runs at a right-angle to the road. The middle dam is to the right.

I think you're mistaking that climbing point for the other end of the paddock, shown here:

does it really matter how he threw the phone in the reservoir? i love your dedication though!

my 02c. he threw it from the road. it could well have been a spontaneous idea of where to ditch it.

No it doesn’t. lol
Yes, agreed. Spontaneous pitch from the road to get rid of it quickly.

It's not so much about the pitch point, as getting our signals straight, so when we think we understand each other we actually do.

I was wondering about the vehicles yesterday. The photo of PS' vehicle doesn't show the make of the vehicle, it is covered by the bullbar. But the one at the house is a Ford.

I was wondering if they were both the same make, because I wanted to see if PS' vehicle contained a computer that would produce telematics for the investigators. But it is too hard (for me) to tell the make of PS' vehicle.

Back on 11 March, a very clever sleuther deciphered the number plates and posted it here. If I get a chance I really should go back and get their name to give them credit again.



Hence, we have the make and model of the vehicle, and we found back then that this model did not come with tracking.

And on checking the rego, the registration renewal was just paid in August of this year, so someone is using the Ute while PS is detained.

Did PS work for his father? They’d have similar work vehicles don’t you think? Perhaps no company decals too.
The enclosed tray would hold electrical supplies and tools ready for all the jobs.

Former schoolmate lifts the lid on Samantha Murphy's accused killer

Patrick Stephenson, 22, was this week charged with allegedly murdering Samantha Murphy on February 4 after she left her Ballarat home, in Victoria, for a morning run.

I don’t know the answer to that Rocket. I was originally of the understanding that he did work for his father, but rather recently someone corrected me and said he worked elsewhere ( didn’t say where )

IC = I see

Meaning:
P...O...S I see

My amateur O

S (not 5), if this are the initials of Patrick. IMO
What IC means, Idk at the moment.

A friend bought a motorbike once and the custom number plate was 025IC

He was told by the seller it stood for "Oh Too Sick"
