Hawkins, how do you know this?

I am currently drinking margaritas here with some Brookfielders. That's how I roll.

In breaking news. I can confirm that GBC is currently not drinking margaritas on the deck of the Noosa Surf Club.

Great surf club. Have one for all of us and enjoy your break Mr(?) Hawkins x

So the Prado has been released, but the Captiva is still impounded.. so my guess is the transportation must have been in the Captiva. As I previously noted, in the photos released to the public the Captiva was parked in the carport - reversed in. IMO, this was an attempt to draw attention away from evidence that was in the back of that car (poor attempt IMO).

P.s. I guess you'll be buying a hardcopy of tomoz paper ;o)

interesting also is the fact that whilst a Prado is a 4wd 'proper' and the Captiva is not (SUV), the Captiva in fact has more space in the rear than a Prado. Seats in fact also release back far easier and quicker in the Captiva than the prado for when you want more room in the back (i.e just the two front seats being used and all else in the rear is full deck space - and alot of it in fact, probably just under 6 feet)

The prado also has options for the entire vehicle to be 'seated' up which takes it from a 5 seat car to a 7 seat car. Making it a virtual impossibility to transport something like a body (sorry ) Perhaps the prado in question has this 7 seat thing already happening (perhaps one of you may try to blow up a picture of the car to have a look and see if this is visible.) I am thinking not with only 3 kids but you never know.

Either way, a captiva offers a quicker 'rear space making' option than a prado.

Probably worth noting also that the white 4wd was spotted 'tailing' the other car with just its park lights on. Witness is saying blue car but a silver car can quite easily look blue in the dark as you drive by at 50km per hour.
If we assume it was a silver captiva I guess in many respects it would also make sense that people carrying out such an evil act would possibly have the front lead car as the car with the body in it. In this case, a silver captiva.

In this case the car that still appears to be impounded (allegedly)

Hope it's not that seedy pub...lol.

Hawkins, he's definitely drinking them at that C21 night though.

Apparently he's a non drinker.

Pic showing Kholo Creek at high water levels.

hoping I have my sense of direction from this aerial shot..

left hand side of the bridge is heading west - towards ipswich?
pipes seen next to the bridge are closest to the brisbane river?
body was found on the bank right hand side in this pic, closest to pipes?

so IF the body was thrown from the bridge, the car could have
a) stopped ON the bridge (facing towards ipswich), quickly disposed of the body, then proceeded to do a u-turn at Bunya St to return back to Brookfield.
b) pulled across and parked in the clearing on the side of the road, disposed of body, returned to Brookfield.
c) drove over the bridge, did a u-turn at Bunya St then pulled off to park in the clearing on the side of the road, disposed of body, returned to Brookfield.

If the body was thrown from the bridge, which side could it have been? In the aerial shot of the forensic photographer taking pictures of the body, to me, it seemed as though it was directly below the edge of the bridge.

Do you think water flow moved it from one side of the bridge (closest to the clearing where the car possibly parked) to the other (closest to the pipes/Bris River). Or do you think the body was thrown over the edge closest to the pipes and hasn't moved?

Does anyone know whose car Gerard had crashed 2 days after Allison's disappearance?

Latest rumour apparently is that it belonged to Charles whatshisname? The century 21 head guy.

 

[True]

:truce:

Apparently he's a non drinker.

Curious, that's what I thought, but in those C21 gala photos, he looks absolutely plastered.

 

[Dodo]

Back to the case. Does anyone know if NBC was definitely at the bus stop. What on earth would he be there for if he didn't 'have a change of heart' perhaps thought someone should be around for the brandies!? Oops, grandies!?

no i dont think the boss of c21 would be driving that car

 

[willough]

I just had a conniption - at first, I thought you were stating Prime Ministers were logical!

I was ready to weep! *chuckle*

Cheers

LOL...That would be enough to make me weep too..

I thought I read somewhere that you're also not supposed to go on about what are the rules and what aren't.

And I don't think you are also supposed to make others feel bad, which is what I feel some of your posts are doing.

Just sayin :innocent:

Back to the case, I think those big photos of Kholo Bridge are great. I had no idea there was as much vegetation as there seems to be, so opportunity to hide cars and people from passersby.

 

[mountainhigh]

makes sense and could be the case. in my experience those dance floor moves and facial expressions (incl eyes) look like the end result of something other than alcohol anyway. something a little heavier and a little more expensive..

I dont know what I dislike most.....the infamous pash (lets not turn this into a discussion on the pash, just using it as a comparative)...........or the photo of GBC on that dancefloor with his fingers hooked in his pants ringers....At current, the latter has invaded my mind and not in a good way.....NONONONONO.....Get out of my head!!!! lol

 

[Dodo]

Sorry Indro, I'm not the one making the claims, not up to me to Sleuth you, also against the rules. Up to you to back up your own info.

I could be wrong, but I thought newspapers welcomed input from the public, encouraged it even, so that they can have one upmanship with other media outlets. It used to be called a 'scoop'. As I've heard a bit on this site lately ...'just saying':seeya:

 

[Nads]

Ya gotta love the self-appointed prefects around here.

Indromum, you have a lot of support, so thanks for keeping us in the loop.

If we could only post links to media on this thread then what would even be the point of being here? Might as well just read the CM. Moo moo moo.

I was just as culpable then, saying what a journo friend told my OH, as have all the local people here who have given us inside info.

I'm still confident of an arrest in the next month.

if the captiva was the 'transport' car with the prado behind it also enables the removal of 'something' from the captiva to be hidden from traffic in both directions, i.e prado parked right up close to the rear of the captiva, blocking anyone's view in either direction.

So true....Just leave enough room, to lift the boot....and even drive in a little closer after the Captivas boot is open and voila, protection from sight.

Good thinking buddy!!!

 

[dork_whisperer]

Dork, I'm going to ask a really big favor of you, you don't have to do it if you don't want to or haven't got time. Could you place a small "x" in an identical photo above showing us close as u an to where body was located?

Well that was a worthwhile question TRUE! In order to get the X accurate, I had to re-visit the news videos to check the location of bridge pilons etc. The X is higher than the high water level!!
