My post was answering a specific question. I prefaced my post with the statement that I didn’t know them or what their normal was and not am I an analyst. If you can’t see what I’m referencing you may need to look more closely at the different videos of the same briefing from the different...

I’m going to preface this with the fact I don’t know these people and what their normal is, not have I ever had to contemplate what they are going through or have any background to analyse or presume anything from their body language. What doesn’t sit well with me is three fold … 1- The...

I’m glad you raised this. I was very interested in the body language and interactions between the police officer, husband and daughter during the interview, some bits really stood out to me although in the absence of knowing them or seeing what is normal for them it’s hard to really know if...

DW, PW & DW all departed Sydney on the Shota Rustaveli on 19 Jan 1970. According to their passenger cards they were going for business for 18months. Interestingly it was just shy of a month prior to WW returning to Europe on 15 Feb 1970 without his estranged wife and brand new baby who left...

Except she has a passenger card exiting several days later from Australia.

Tks @mishy66 I Saw this when it was first discussed and never really felt comfortable that we had all the info. Someone had to be travelling with the baby but short of going through every passenger card I don’t know how to find who else was on that flight. What young mother would send their...

It started because we can’t find any evidence of DdH being in the same side of the globe as her daughter MdH when she was born. The simplest explanation is that we just don’t have the travel details and they’re not reported in the NAA file. I was out of the box crazy thinking of another...
