Such a terrible and growing homelessness and housing problem in Tasmania. There's also so much untreated and unsupported mental health due to lack of services and funding. They're just shutting down another rehab place too so that's not going to help. That poor woman. It's just awful.

It's not always a choice and there isn't always an opportunity for assistance nor even knowing that there's another direction to go. Boys who don't know better can't be better. Personal responsibility is important, sure, but as a society we need to be able to support those who need it...

Yeah it does sound possible that she was never there. Maybe more probable than wandering off that track. I had thought that maybe her car didn't start and someone - maybe offering her a lift - took her or maybe just took her not even under the guise of helping. Maybe coming back and tossing the...

My puppy went missing and I ran up and down the road yelling her name and flagging down cars. I'd be knocking on doors and making sure everyone got out and looked if it was my kid.

Ugh. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-07-27/shyanne-lee-tatnell-man-charged-/102653792

And from Tasmanian Police Remains located in search for missing teenager

Human remains have been found in the search area. So awful. I was hopeful that she'd run away. Remains located in search for missing teenager

Yeah maybe. It always just baffles me to think that people wander into the bush like that. Particularly unprepared tourists.

Ah I only meant given the track. It's an easy short walk. And would be a strange one to walk off given its a signposted kind of short walk thing and there's a stack of other walks to hikes. But I guess people do strange things. Would have thought more people would have seen her too, especially...

Yes sure, think her walking experience is totally irrelevant whatever happened. I wonder if her car started. If she'd gone for a walk then got back and couldn't start her car there would be no other way out other than hitching a ride.

It wouldn't really matter how experienced a hiker you were for this walk though. It's a short, quick walk. Unless she went off track and headed out somewhere which seems unlikely.

Getting your hands on drugs in Byron isn't very hard though. It would be harder to avoid them :) they'd be available at the hostel. I don't know enough about the texts he sent but not sure you could always tell if someone was wasted. He could have just been impaired enough to make some poor...

There's lots of magic mushrooms in Byron. The more I read people's attempts to make sense of his movements or his state of mind etc the more I think how illogical someone on mushrooms can be.

He was selling drugs from his grandmother's house. If the police knew and gave him an out why wouldn't he take it? Sounds like lying wasn't that unusual for him anyway! I think the police thought they knew that Adnan did it. They made a timeline that fitted and found people to agree with it...
