Yes, that's something that interests me as well. Given Tostee's versions of events tend to be completely different to the other party (generally very tame compared ot what they state has happened) and in this one he talks about lifting her up and "manhandling her" out of her "lust-trance" I...

Home distilling is dangerous because it can result in the production of methanol in toxic amounts, resulting in many issues including blindness and even death. I would be interested to know if the tox screen included the methanol content in Rrie's blood. It occurred to me, although it's a...

Oh, me too. I'll fly up to QLD to attend the trial if he testifies. I reckon he'll convict himself within an hour of cross examination. Indeed I actually think a good prosecutor could extract a confession.

BBM. All the media were allowed to publish.

Nope you're not totally confused. There have been more phones associated with this case than I think I've owned. 3 in the car in the basement, his phone and Rrie's phone and one in his Dad's car. The Sony Xperia in his Dad's car had the recording.

In theory, yes. Here is some information on the Smartband: http://gadgets.ndtv.com/wearables/reviews/sony-smartband-swr10-review-only-for-fitness-aficionados-557340?site=classic. This review focuses on the fitness and lifestyle elements of the Smartband (its intended purpose), but it does give...

Sorry if I didn't notice you mention wrist watch. Or maybe I did and it put the idea in my head!

Hmmm, yes, they could mean the front entrance of the apartment complex. Hadn't considered that.

Picking up on my prior post re a wristband recording device. How about the Sony Smartband: http://cnet4.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2014/08/26/b5275260-19c8-4525-92f3-a81d03db5a02/thumbnail/770x433/930cf99fb20d0b2be42f9f68d1648289/sony-smartband-talk-2.jpg Compare to the band on Tostee's wrist in...

BBM I'm convinced the Sony Xperia found in his Dad's car with the recording on it was planted by Tostee specifically for police to find. The situation looked really bad for Tostee in the immediate aftermath. As far as anybody was concerned, Rrie was a nice woman who had gone back to...

The stuff in that article is very interesting. (Relinked for reference...

Excellent point, perfectly sums up the problems with Tostee's reaction.

Yes, I'd love some suggestions about this. In my experience, most modern apartments have a system where the outside will be locked but the inside is always unlocked so you can't get in without the key (or unsnibbing it from the inside) but you can always get out. It's a safety mechanism. Avalon...

<modsnip> <modsnip> <modsnip>Tostee does suggest she leave on a number of occasions, but he doesn't follow through, and on an equal number of occasions he encourages her to stay. When Rrie indicates she wants to leave he takes measures to get her to stay. If he was struggling with her...

I meant mad as in crazy, not mad as in angry, in case there's some confusion. There have been calls to ban Stilnox by many groups in the community - doctors, psychologists, drug & alcohol specialists, social workers, police - precisely due to the impact it can have and the fact that people...
