GUILTY Australia - Sophie Collombet, 21, found dead in Kurilpa Park, Brisbane, 27 March 2014

Benjamin James Milward has not been seen for a week, police say

“The longer it goes, the more suspicion is aroused with this person.” Det Insp Kemp said police were following other leads, but Mr Milward was their main focus.

His message to the wanted man was simple: “Come forward. We do need to speak to this person and it's not going to go away.” Mr Milward is described as 180 centimetres tall, with hazel eyes, short fair hair and a dragon tattoo across the left side of his chest.

An autopsy of Ms Collombet is complete, but police wouldn't say if she was sexually assaulted.

So he may have a Townsville connection too:

When asked about a possible child and former partner in Townsville, Inspector Kemp would not specifically comment.

“We’re pursuing all those lines of inquiry, any associates or acquaintances he’s had,” he said.

he doesnt look to have a backpack or any belongings with him in these pics. that makes me think he had to go back to where he has been staying to pick them up. Surely he'd want to get rid of the clothes he has on? MOO

 

[enzeder]

So now I'm REALLY wondering what he's got in his hands? Is it something of Sophie's??

Detective Inspector Rod Kemp commented in the video at Press conference....

...."He was carrying what appeared to be a mobile phone and a wallet and he may have also had like a potato chip packet or something...."

Thank you, enzeder!:seeya:

I'm using someone else's computer with no headphones and my little boy is next to me so I haven't played the press conference out loud as it's not appropriate listening for a 4 year old!

Been very testing for my sleuthing self!!:banghead:

Oftentimes, perps on the run commit suicide. If he is guilty of this crime, he may not be alive.

 

[Mrs G Norris]

So maybe he cleared out his bank account .. that doesn't give him much money or time, a Gold Coast Festival is on tonight, called Launch it: http://www.surfersparadise.com/whats-on/live-music/launch-it!-beach-concert so not going!

 

[MsAnais]

Ah, the inconsistencies of MSM. This report quotes LE saying that he is indeed itinerant......

Insp Kemp said several had reported experiencing “hassles” while passing through the park.

Insp Kemp described Milward as an “itinerant” person who had no fixed address.

Good point, Kimster :seeya: I didn't even think of that.

Benjamin Milward reminds me of Adrian Ernest Bayley who murdered Jill Meagher right down to the muscle singlet and why the sunglasses at 11.30 on a rainy night? Again, like Bayley, what is Milwards priors and why so dangerous if approached.

I would assume he is dangerous to approach because if he is on drugs and has done this any confrontation would not bode well! Hopefully he is off our streets soon!!

His priors, according to MSM:

Fairfax Media understands his criminal history includes assaulting police, along with property and drug offences.

I get such an Adrian Bayley vibe from that photo. Ugh!! Poor Sophie.

Bright bird, I got the very same vibe! I'm wondering what priors this guy has. Again been in gaol and released.

do you think it looks like he has items stuffed into his cargo pants pockets - below his knees. hard to tell when comparing the train station CCTV photos and the blurry CCTV photo taken earlier in the day at a South Brisbane business (Melbourne Hotel).

His posture is a little strange, he's hunching his shoulders in. Do you think he had something stuffed down the front of his cargo pants and he was trying conceal it by hunching his shoulders - perhaps it was SC's handbag?

 

[Mrs G Norris]

I've seen other guys with serious drugs / social problems with that posture before, it's almost the look of a whipped dog to me, he knows he's really in trouble this time and he's freaked himself out IMO.

very useful to show crime trends and statistics, enter 'South Brisbane' and select a timeframe: http://www.police.qld.gov.au/forms/crimestatsdesktop.asp

Good sleuthing, kailee.:seeya: His pants do look bulging. And cargo pants have so many pockets - who knows what he's stuffed in there :facepalm:
