Those items were stolen in the robbery as far as I can remember seeing.

Aaah - I thought someone indicated police were notified by ST in terms of getting an insurance claim underway - perhaps squealing about the theft was his downfall - all hearsay and speculation at this point!

Yes, that seems to be the case. And we have already discussed why the car may not be available ... held by police for evidence, under finance and not really 'owned' yet by Sam.

Welcome, too, PynkPantha

I remember an aquaintance had stated sam had reported the car stolen but it had been taken as collateral for money he owed apparently if its true

Plus, a surprising amount of young people do not have insurance coverage on the household and personal items they own. They are invincible, after all, nothing is going to happen to their stuff ... insurance is an unnecessary expense. lol
Although I would think and hope that there is comprehensive insurance on that expensive, hot car.

I agree that the robbery and home invasion was likely as a threat and for collateral. I think someone(s) badly wanted the money that may have been owed.

That is a very good theory, Seabreeze.

It is very unfortunate that Sam did not take the home invasion as seriously as he perhaps should have, and realised that things could get even worse. But if he did things 'his way', as his dad stated, he may have had quite a stubborn streak in him.

But Sam did move right after the home invasion, and then went on an overseas trip ... so perhaps he was concerned for his things, and not so much for himself. As he obviously kept up his relationship with Boscaino, whatever that relationship was.

It appears that after the home invasion where his designer brands were stolen, Sam moved into the lavish unit in Albion, where he was living when he disappeared, paying "$500 per week" for rent on the Albion unit...

His parents surely must have wondered how Sam could afford such luxury while being an unemployed childcare worker...

Actions speak louder than words..MOO.:thinking:

We dont know the exact time periods he was unemployed. On his fundraising page it stated he worked in various childcare centers since leaving school. What the timeframes were though is unknown.

Yes, and he also went on an overseas holiday.
I am sure his parents had questions. After all, Sam's dad did admit Sam 'did things his way'. But whatever we may think, or they may have thought, they are not responsible for his actions ... just as the alleged murderers' parents are not responsible for their sons' actions.

Not that you said that, tiddles. Just not sure where you were going with your comment.

Whole scenario is just so strange on a few levels....I can't imagine how ST's parents didn't know - on Facebook ST spruiks to the world at large that he's about to buy a $300 bucket hat and his father asks ST to buy him one too - WTF? - there's also references to "shouting" overseas cruises and so forth - I've heard of people winning big on KENO - so maybe there's an innocent explanation - I also know a guy who was bequested $100 000 by his Grandad so there are innocent explanations for the luxury - hopefully such an explanation will surface ???

It was mentioned sams parents had a 'tough' couple of past years on the fundraising blurb, so i thought that he may have given them holidays as a present or to lift their spirits. JMO.

When Sam disappeared, it was stated in all msm that he was "unemployed" (for how long we don't know) so where was the money coming from for him to be able to pay $500 weekly on a luxurious unit in Albion while unemployed?

No idea just tossing ideas in the air that are both related to drug trade or innocent accumulation of cash. One can save a lot of money from working especially if they are single with no dependents. He couldve been unemployed for a month for all we know.

Pretty sure i had read on face book from somebody that knew all 3, that they were all long time friends or acquaintances, that RB was a long time dealer, from age 13, so assuming it is a family thing.
RB was supplying ST and ST owed him a lot money.
That is what the home invasion and the stealing of his car was all about, moneys owed.
ST knew who the two were that took it and why they took it, but reported it to police anyway.
This obviously pissed them off and ST obviously still owed RB a lot of money.
I guess RB kept supplying​ ST in the hope of getting his money back, but that never happened.
I am guessing where AD fit's into this is he was RB'S friend and became his stand over man.

All sound pretty plausible to me.

Maybe they didn't mean to kill him, things may have just gotten out of hand with flared tempers.

Sad set of circumstances.

Drug dealers are the worst, i hope they use this to charge those much further up the good chain.

I'm with you re the strangeness of it. And I don't see how his parents wouldn't have had some inkling that whatever he was doing may not be kosher......if that was my son I'd surely be thinking 'drug dealing' or illegal activity of some sort.

But then again, even if they openly knew what he was doing, it doesn't change the fact that they've lost their son to murder. Which is really intense. So I still feel for them.

It's a tricky situation for a parent to be in, I think. What can they have done to stop him? He's an adult, living independently.....all they could have really done was have honest talks with him about their concern about what he was doing....but even then, young guys often believe they're indestructible.....they're not just going to say 'Yes, you're right. I'll go straight'.....

Evidently it was a no-win situation.

Its weird because they were all long time friends rather then only having a relationship of drug exchange etc. why would sam continue to hang out dyball if he knew he had stolen his car???

Looking back at these holidays he shouted his parents to: the 'cruise ' appears to be a Brisbane River cruise for the Riverfire festival fireworks and the weekend away appears to be both their birthday present to a Queensland destination (maybe a joint gift from both children?) - hardly lavish or eyebrow raising IMO.

That all makes complete sense to me. That's the most logical explanation we've seen so far imo.

But do we know for a fact that Sam kept hanging out with AD? He may have kept seeing RB.....and didn't expect AD to turn up at his place during that final meet-up.
