Yep. Thought it, just can't link it. The answer would be in the tech. On line activity that matched both parties, I imagine.
Adelaide cyber sleuths win missing persons 'hackathon'A group of cyber sleuths from Adelaide has taken out the national missing persons "hackathon", finding nearly 100 new pieces of information for police to investigate.
Key points:350 cyber experts took part in the National Missing Persons Hackathon last weekThe Adelaide team from Saab Australia found 97 new pieces of informationIt's the first time the event has been held in Australia
The team from Saab Australia placed first out of 96 teams which took part in the National Missing Persons Hackathon last week.
The event was the first of its kind to be held in Australia and saw more than 350 "ethical hackers" gather at 10 locations around the country to generate leads for 12 of Australia's missing-person cold cases.
Has anyone explored the possibility there's a connection between Theo's disappearance and backpackers Hugo Palmer and Erwan Ferrieux the previous Feb?
I know it was vaguely mentioned over the summer months in some articles but it didn't develop.
Does anyone have any updates beyond bones found linked to Erwan Ferrieux? It would NOT be unfair to say there's a high incidence of Caucasian males both European and native registered as missing along NSW from early 2000. Previous to Hugo Palmer and Erwan Ferrieux, a British tourist Aaron Payne disappeared south of Sydney without a trace Oct 2018. A gap of 3/4 months between them all.
On the verge of requiring hospitalisation if he was that weight and height I'd say.This sounds really mysterious....I hope "40 kg" is a typo, that would be very, very skinny, wouldn't it?
Found this article while looking for more on Potts Point backpackers:
Police arrest foreign dealers in inner-Sydney drug sweep
The operation included a focus on the distribution of illegal narcotics within nightclubs and other entertainment venues.
The investigation was capped off last Friday night (15 March) with the arrests of a 28-year-old French national and a 23-year-old Irishman at a backpacker hostel in Potts Point in relation to the supply of MDMA (ecstasy).
Randwick?Surrey Hills, RedFern, Rose Bay, Kings Cross, Renwick, all these boroughs in North Sydney have young men with similar profiles disappearing without a trace over the last decade. All nationalities, all from within miles of each other.
"DORIAN was found by police a few hours ago! He is not injured and seems to be doing relatively well according to King Cross officer. We are now waiting for more information. Thank you all for your support and help!!".
It is the same IMO but is it his?![]()
This is the picture of Théo's cap after it was found. It appeared on theage.com.au on October 13th. I remember you dealt ideas about the state of the cap and of the place (leaves,dry....) but I can't find it any more. The colour looks the same as in the post #174 above. Would you think that this cap is the same ?
And if you were trekking through 'overgrown' tracks in the dark...it could be bumped off too. Be difficult to find if stumbling through bushland tracks in the dark of night around BB...IMOIt is the same IMO but is it his?
Actually it is very hot and windy today in NSW.... I was wearing a cap myself outside, and a few times it almost got blown off. My hands were free so I could keep it on my head. But if I were busy climbing around, no, it would be lost. Just a thought.....
I haven’t posted here in a while, but always check in for Theo.![]()

Let me pose a question. What's the chance, if you were trekking, bush walking etc (in daylight I hope), that you found a discarded cap or whatever, that matched one that you own? Eg. You have a red 'NY' cap, and you found an exact match discarded while you're bush walking.I haven’t posted here in a while, but always check in for Theo.
Just want to say I think that is TOTALLY his hat! Look at the worn edge on the bill on both of them. The rest is the same IMO, but the bill seals it for me.

I reckon that's about the chance that a random discarded cap found, matched a particular cap that belongs to a particular someone you know. And you know that someone was in the vicinity not too long ago.
I certainly have not found any such identical discarded item ever. Not even a broken umbrella. But then my umbrellas are usually not a common style![]()
@Via Marble. And on top of that I read that Théo's cap (type/model/design) was not sold in Australia.
