I am rather surprised that Mr Fennell has actually been named as the owner of the CCTV footage. Surely he will be a target now? :scared:

Mr Campbell is understood to have been in the police lockup for his own safety on Friday night, after becoming involved in a drunken scuffle, when his daughter mysteriously “appeared” at the Childers showgrounds — where police have established a base — just after midnight.

http://www.news.com.au/national/que...s-against-father/story-fnii5v6w-1226881974862

I thought he was punched in the afternoon?

and furthermore, why was he drinking (again!) while his daughter was missing?

and also, who 'forgets' to lock a window when they or their child/family has already been threatened? if it's serious enough to be reported to the police, isn't it serious enough to warrant locking the windows?!

this smells beyond the obvious

I think the one good thing out of this story is how determined the media have been even so far to even say they have been restrained and respectful to all involved.
It is very very very difficult to keep a story under control when there is that much interest with cameras and police wanting to speak to everyone all the time. The police were probably very happy to have the media there to distract and delve into the crime as well. I think those involved totally underestimated that a little girl could spark such a huge community/nation response. Publicity yes but not public immersion in the story.

Any story which may have been straight down the line becomes a web after the media storm. That web of information is something that cannot be quantified, controlled or muted in a situation like this and fortunately will unravel to reveal the truth.

Lets hand it to the media on this one! The media have provided a forum for few media wannabees wanting to get their so called 15 mins of fame and all in all the police and community have really benefitted from there being such intense scrutiny to return little Chloe. The Campbell family were very lucky to have the media there to provide coverage and get everyone involved in the search. The friends and family got to show how their amazing support benefit family. But also now the media reports and stories that were woven from all involved in the beginning of this awful saga will be the true measure of evil that went on in the closing chapters of this case.

Great job as always to QPS but I think the media had a huge role in getting this little girl back as well.

I have a funny feeling he won't be worried in the slightest :HHJP: Getting Chloe back an hour or so after his footage was released to the media might make him a bit of a local hero if anything.

My :twocents: I think that where RL might come in to play here is that he gave these people the info as to the sleeping arrangements that night. Just speculating here based on his strange behavior and statements on the earlier video and his acquaintances on SM.

Also a bit O/T and not really pertaining to Chloe but I just wanna say that I LOVE an Aussie accent. But gosh you Aussies are doing me in here with the lingo. I'm trying to follow along but I have to google search all this lingo I'm unfamiliar with. I figured out "dobbed" and I can guess that maybe Pottsville and Bogansville is referring to drunks or dopers maybe. But what is "lose his bundle" please? The closest I can find is "dropped his balls" and somehow I don't think that is it

:floorlaugh:

I've been wondering the same things.

Friends said the parents went to bed between midnight and 1am and did not notice Chloe missing until 7am, when distraught mum Tammy O’Donnell phoned police.

Police say her parents checked on her and went to sleep around midnight but when they woke, she was not in her bed.

The Courier-Mail can reveal Mr Campbell was seen on a street near his house the morning Chloe was reported missing, about 20 minutes before police received the call.

:facepalm:

What I would really like to know is who determined exactly what time Chloe went missing? Garth was apparently seen on the street 20 minutes before Chloe went missing. So what time was Garth seen? How can someone pinpoint down to 20 minutes when Chloe went missing if, as we've been led to believe, Tammy discovered that Chloe was missing when she (Tammy) awoke at 7:00am on the Thursday morning.

Hinky balls are itching.

It does say 20 minutes before Chloe went missing though.

"The Courier-Mail can reveal Mr Campbell was seen on a street near his house the night Chloe disappeared, about 20 minutes before his daughter went missing."

http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/...e-nation-on-edge/story-fnihsrf2-1226883039144

And by the way they said 'can reveal' ... that usually means police have told them they can report that. Not that any old person has told them that. Just police aren't ready to make those statements themselves yet. But they want the info out there for their own personal reasons.

Haven't quite got to the end of the pages here, so appologies if its already been said..

I'm thinking maybe the Police DO know what time Chloe went missing- maybe that was her on the cctv footage. Just that the paper is only letting out snippets of the information at the moment, as is often the case and sometimes it doesn't seem to make sense whne you only get dribs and drabs of the information. I know usually its because the police are only allowing certain information to be released at this stage.

EDIT:
Ahh, never mind, appears the courier mail have changed it to read he was seen 20 mins before she was REPORTED missing, not before she went missing.. well that changes it a bit, not so significant then.

Hopefully the driver of the blue Commodore has been located. I was wondering how that car figured into the equation. Len or Les Fennell the owner of the residential cctv, as mentioned in MSM, lives in Churchill St, Childers according to Whitepages. http://www.whitepages.com.au

Looking at Google Maps, Churchill Street seems a tad far from Pioneer Park where the cctv footage apparently captured the two guys and the child. Perhaps Mr. Fennell owns a business along the Bruce Highway that has cctv. Those grainy shots we saw via MSM look to have been filmed directly across the road from the public toilets mentioned by Mr. Fennell.

I think it is confusing because the name changes from Bruce Highway to Churchill street on the map- whereas I think it is all Churchill street, which happens to be part of the Bruce Highway as the highway runs through town. If you put the street number into google maps as well, it shows Mr Fennells house is right across from the park. I was very confused by this, because as you say Churchill st seems too far from the park, then I remembered that it was the same here where I live before our town was bypassed- the New England Highway ran through town, and was called the New England Highway, but the roads also retained their local name.

Good thinking Sin and welcome. The newspaper report stated that Garth was seen outside on the street 20 minutes before Chloe went missing. This is what's bugging me at the moment. The author of that press release was Kathleen Donaghey of The Courier-Mail, a Brisbane newspaper. I'll contact her later today (it's 2:30am here in Oz and she'd be cutting zzz's now) and hopefully she'll be able to shed more light on that particular statement.

Id say "before" was a typo. It now says "reported"

The Courier-Mail can reveal Mr Campbell was seen on a street near his house the morning Chloe was reported missing, about 20 minutes before police received the call.

Maybe he went out looking for her? If they had noticed she wasn't in the lounge, had a look around the house, the yard, up and down the street, then called the police?

Wait, so does that mean the security footage was from the morning and not the middle of the night .. is that what this means?

The Courier-Mail can reveal Mr Campbell was seen on a street near his house the morning Chloe was reported missing, about 20 minutes before police received the call.

It was also about 20 minutes before security footage shows two men and a child passing along the railway line behind Pioneer Park, only a few hundred metres from Chloe’s house on the same morning she vanished.

Locals say the girl and her parents regularly walk that same route from their house on the way to town.

Their story is really starting to fall apart now if so.

maybe, according to this MSM

Friends said the parents went to bed between midnight and 1am and did not notice Chloe missing until 7am, when distraught mum Tammy O’Donnell phoned police.

Why would he be looking for her when they didnt notice she was gone until 7am and mum gets straight on the phone to police?
Unless times are wrong in MSM

The CCTV footage is from 6:20am. So he was walking around 'on a street near his house' at about 6am.

MailOnline is reporting this morning that Australian police are examining CCTV footage showing two people leading a young child through the streets of Childers at 6.20am on Thursday morning.

[SouthAussie]

I wonder what car park the two men (now without a small child) were filmed walking across. That may give an indication of where they were returning from (vicinity of MacRossan Street?) Because the footage of them walking with the small child was apparently along the railway tracks.

The grainy footage, which was filmed by a resident on a security camera, then captures the two walking back across a car park 20 minutes later without a child.

Well, that's it for me .. way to go GC!! Nice one.

 

[Amee]

this report says 6am she was reported missing :banghead:

Chloe Campbell was reported missing from her home in Ridgeway Street, Childers, about 6:00am (AEST).

It was mentioned in a link posted earlier, maybe on the last thread. It's a little park like area at the end of Ridgway that runs along that highway. Forget the name though, but I can see if I can find that link.

Didn't see this one posted.

It would be the car park in Pioneer Park.

It was also about 20 minutes before security footage shows two men and a child passing along the railway line behind Pioneer Park, only a few hundred metres from Chloe’s house on the same morning she vanished.

Sunrise in Bundaberg/Childers is about 6:05am right now. Just in case that has any bearing on anything. :floorlaugh:
