It seems to me to be too much of a coincidence after nothing for so long.
Maybe someone who knew something lost their fear.
When I read that he was an abbatoir worker I wondered if he had anything to do with Jessica Small disappearing.

I also wonder if these 3 cases are linked?

Sounds like he was taunting the Police.

If he now has a millionaire sister, maybe he was taunting her too! iykwim.. imo.

‘So sad’: Man accused of Michelle Bright murder leaves Facebook comment
''Some 24 hours before his arrest, Mr Rumsby commented on a Facebook post about Ms Bright, saying: “It’s so sad that they haven’t caught her killer years Michelle was like a sister to me I feel sorry for the family.”

Former abattoir worker charged over murder of NSW teenager Michelle Bright
''At the time Rumsby told police he never stayed or went to Gulgong on the night Michelle vanished.
He told detectives he played cards with a friend until 3am in the neighbouring town of Cooks Gap.''
''Police also allege Rumsby sexually assaulted an 18-year-old woman at Gulgong a year before Michelle's death.
The woman told police a man had pinned her down outside her house, and tried to pull her dress up but was spooked by her boyfriend who chased after him but never caught up.
It's alleged Rumsby's wallet was found on the road near the attack.
On Wednesday afternoon, Michelle's family huddled together in the back seats of Mudgee Local Court but were not afforded a glimpse of his face as Rumbsy kept his head low.
He was formally refused bail and is expected to appear before the same court on August 19.''

Cold case breakthrough gives Bathurst families new hope

 

[they'll get you]

I also wonder if these 3 cases are linked?

All too close for comfort DOC.

 

[they'll get you]

I read an article about the effects and how desensitised to death abattoir workers are.

Violence in and out of the home.
Cruelty.
PTSD
Drugs, alcohol, gambling

I won’t post the article as it is a bit gruesome.

There was an abbatoir worker mentioned in the Jessica Small case as well.

Another with connections to this area was former Bathurst man Peter Letcher who set off to hitchhike from Sydney to Bathurst and whose body was found at Jenolan Caves, 75km from Bathurst. It was thought he may have been an Ivan Milat victim.


In November 1987, Peter Letcher left the southwestern Sydney suburb of Busby to hitchhike to his parent's home in Bathurst, but he never arrived.

Two months later, some bushwalkers discovered his remains on a forest trail near the tourist attraction the Jenolan Caves.

He was lying face down in a shallow ditch covered in branches and leaf litter.

He was bound, stabbed multiple times in the back, and shot five times in the head from a .22 calibre weapon.

After a $1 million reward to crack the cold case was announced on Monday, homicide detectives arrested Craig Rumsby on the outskirts of the town last night.

"His reaction was unexpected — he actually was taken back to the police station with heart palpitations," Detective Superintendent Dan Doherty said.


Mr Rumsby was refused bail today and will face Mudgee Local Court again next Wednesday.

Hey there Toots!

Peter Letcher Was always thought to have been Milat’s work

Rumsby’s pulpitations didn’t need hospital attention. I’d say just an ‘oh crap’ moment.

Hi They'll!

I'm almost sure I saw a pic of Rumsby in a hospital bed in one of the articles ?
I remember thinking that maybe they were trying to solve the case before he passed away.

Maybe I dreamed it. In that dream where I was a judge. I dreamed that the day of his arrest.

Hey there Toots!

Also mentioned in the above article, another missing women from Mudgee, Michelle Mills. She was last seen in June 2000, near Gulgong. Reported missing in August 2000 by concerned family. Police believe she was also murdered.

Two girls, aged 17 and 15, and two women, 31 and 39, all murdered in four years from 1997 in a region with historically low female murder rates. Only one body — that of Michelle Bright — has been recovered and only one accused killer has been charged.

The others are still out there.

Reward of $100,000 to solve disappearance of Michelle Mills

Michelle Marie Mills
A $100,000 reward is on offer to help solve the suspected murder of Michelle Mills in 2000.

Ms Mills, born on 23 July 1961, was reported missing from Mudgee on 12 August 2000 and has not been seen since.

Police believe the mysterious disappearance of Michelle Mills is most likely a case of murder, but her body has never been found.

The $100,000 reward will be available to anyone who provides police with information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Ms Mill's death.

Police understand Michelle had some failed relationships and had been going through a difficult time in the lead-up to her disappearance.

However, investigators believe it is unlikely Michelle took her own life.

Police suspect Michelle may have been killed by someone over money troubles or a person she had lied to or stolen from.

She had only recently moved to Mudgee and she may have returned to Sydney before her death.

While it is unclear what led to Michelle's death, police strongly believe she was the victim of foul play.

Michelle's bank card was used for up to nine months after her disappearance.

These bank transactions, which occurred in Mudgee, Cowra and Blayney, could lead police to the killer or killers.

Police can only move forward with this investigation if someone provides new information.
