Australia Australia - Tegan Lane, 2 days old, Sydney, 14 Sept 1996 *K. Lane guilty*

I tracked down a copy of the Allison Langdon's book but could not take it out of the place so made the 3hr round trip to photocopy the best chapters. Ended up photocopying it all lol. Haven't read it yet. Happy to share if people are interested.

Here are the chapter titles:

Thank you TO. I appreciate your effort. The only things I’d be interested in are where accounts of events differ in this book from the accounts in Nice Girl. They can wait until you’ve had a chance to read, absorb and scan them.

No probs. I'll refrain from posting the general stuff.

Post away. I’m interested in reading anything about this case but I don’t want to wear you out!

Searches done to locate Tegan and ‘Andrew’, based on the information Keli gave to police:

Source:
Email Exchange Between Mark Tedeschi and Caro Meldrum Hanna... (pp. 4-6)

Thanks - this is very useful. At first glance the searches look quite comprehensive. However, there are some gaps that leave room for doubt. For example using a fake birthdate Tegan could have been registered in another state.

This reminds me of the search for the unidentified remains of a child in Wynarka SA which were eventually identified due to a DNA match with the Belanglo Angel, not through one of the extensive searches through government records and welfare checks of children who seemed to have dropped off the radar.

That’s true but Keli didn’t make it easy to search for Tegan, or ‘Andrew’ et al.

 

[Via Marple]

The brothers were #11. Sean Greaves was #10 but first rent payment record found so far was late December 1995 IIRC.

Australia - Tegan Lane, 2 days old, Sydney, 14 Sept 1996 *K. Lane guilty* *Deceased/Not Found*

Many thanks! I am going crazy. Mixed up the year too.

 

[The Observer]

Ok there is a reason why I am mixed up (apart from going crazy, and old age).

If Keli was supposed to be having an affair with Andrew for a few months.. And it started around Sep/Oct 1995.. Tegan was conceived around Dec 1995... Where did she and Andrew go for their rendezvous after Sean Greaves moved into unit 10? Don't tell me that they broke off just because there was a new tenant moving in.

Thanks for remembering what's on the show!
So the book was wrong about two things - the unit number, and the year? Given that the brothers were at unit 11 in 1996 and since.

She claimed the affair started Sept/Oct and went on for 3 months.. up until Sean Greaves moved into the unit. But in earlier police interviews she claimed it was a 6 months affair.

Didn't she also say she commenced the relationship in June 1995 at one stage? Now saying late September/October 1995?

 

[The Observer]

Keli told Caro on Exposed that it was always her calling and chasing Andrew M/Norris:

In the conversations she had with the Exposed team from jail, she describes the relationship as one that was “just week-to-week”. Interactions between trysts were usually conducted on the phone.

“I would call him or … not so much him calling me. It was usually me chasing him,” Lane told Exposed.
Two decades on, Keli Lane hopes this man could prove her innocence

Yet in interviews with Det Gaut she said she hadn't been allowed to ring his number in case someone else answered and that she could only recall calling him twice and one of those times was to tell him she had checked herself into Auburn Hospital to have the baby. So presumably the second was to say come get the baby. So which is it? How are you hooking up with someone for months if you can't call them. Carrier pigeon?

 

[The Observer]

Keli told Det. Gaut she would go to Venus Street to go through old boxes in the garage to look for Andrew's number however she told Gaut the tenants said no. Did we know those tenants were police officers? They're named in the Allison Langdon book but in Nice Girl they're just referred to as tenants.

Interesting read (especially the section on Scandalising the court):

Contempt, etc

Can anyone think of a way this section may apply in this case?

 

[sosocurious]

Sorry if this is a dumb question.
If Andrew had told Keli not to call him and she ignored that requested and still chased.
Who's phone was she calling from? I thought it was said the first phone registered in Keli's name was in early December 1995.

Landline? Maybe why she claimed she wasn't allowed to contact him in case somebody else answered? Yet she it was her 'chasing' and 'calling' him to meet up. The first records of Keli having a mobile phone in her name is Dec '96 (as per police investigation). The phone she allegedly had contact with 'Andrew' with for a few months after Tegan was born. Though on Exposed when Caro asked how she contacted Andrew from hospital to come get Tegan I'm fairly sure she said something like 'I would've had my phone with me and the hospital phone' (will have to check where it's said) so I wonder if she did in fact have a mobile phone but perhaps in her parents name.

Maybe ask Keli? I'm sure it's legit and she'll happily provide answers.

Is this "new member" on the Exposed FB page or is there another?

Oh shute, that's right it was 1996.
Now why would you give someone your landline, but say don't you call me on it?

Oh really all messages will be printed out and forwarded to Keli. 'Righto'

Yes and on the (unofficial) Exposed discussion group.

Postie has possibly fallen through one of the "gaping holes" in the police investigation.

I think the thing some people forget, or are diverted away from by various MSM, is that the searches for Tegan and ‘Andrew’ were based on different versions of facts Keli gave in multiple interviews with police. What is it ‘they’ say? Hindsight is 20/20?
