Australia Australia - Marion Barter - Missing After Trip to UK - June 1997 #19

Looks like another alias to me.

Birthday 15th September 1972. I doubt he would have managed to pull that off. Perhaps this is the murder they are referring to.

ABN 68436858154 belongs to a "PNT" a sole trader, active from July 2001 with business addresses in Rose Bay and Croyden Park, NSW. If it is the (unfortunate) Fujifilm man, how would AKA just pluck this name and possibly birthdate from the ether?

I was actually thinking that this time the alias was not for him, but for someone he knew.

Update from the TLV page (and another new photo of a younger AKA)

Spotlight will run over two weekends. Remember many viewers will be coming to this for the first time so they will need to hear the story from the start which means a lot of what many of you already know. We won’t release new TLV episodes until the second part runs next weekend. Thank you for your support. Alison

Agree

It sounds like the first Spotlight episode won't contain anything that those who have been following don't already know, and that anything new will be in part two, the following weekend.

I just felt that old feeling, I fell for the hype. My excitement bubble has deflated.

It does make sense that they should go over the case from the beginning, but it did sound like Sunday was going to be an eye opener.

It will be very interesting then to see the photo attached to this new passport!

All those shows are like that, 99% fizz.

Well, yes, AKA read the brief, but pieces of evidence keep getting added. Apparently he made the statement about Marion buying the school BEFORE the postcard was added. See comment by SL on the MPMB FB post.

Yes he mentioned it pre it becoming public knowledge.

Yes he did talk about this at inquest, long before this postcard content was shared.
The postcard image was shared some time back but not the written side

How exactly are the police protecting RB from public scrutiny? Because that's been happening, gathering in momentum for years. Or do they just mean they have a security guard standing outside his room at the old folks home hahahaa

There’s always a bit of journalistic exaggeration in these types of shows. Hopefully there is a genuine connection and evidence to support their claim.

I am reminded of the story Sally told of her mother's teaching friend hearing the podcast for the first time recently and offering up Marion's postcard. They need to hype the story to attract new viewers, as frustrating as it may be for us. But slow and steady may be what finally does RB in, and I'm praying it does.
