Australia - Toyah Cordingley, 24, body found on beach, 22 October 2018

[iailwa]

one of the shooting range which is close by. Somewhere along this stretch is likely the 800 metres mark

And one of Hartley's etc, which looks like it's a Unity Reef. It's a fair way but not un-walkable

If our cops have DNA then, it might not be tomorrow but one day either the murderer or a member of his family will slip up with the law and then he’s gooone.
That’s no resolve for Toyah’s family & and friends but technology and time will get this/these low life bastards.

I really hope there is a breakthrough soon as this turd does not deserve any freedom on our streets.

Police could get a hit on a relative through one of the genealogical DNA services (a la the US’ Golden State Killer).

one more screen shot - of the southern end of the beach from a distance

one more, but i found this interesting. The place where the boyfriend works is marked red, & the south carpark is grey (further north). Not far... you could go to the beach on your lunch break even...? I wonder if she popped into his work - anyone could follow her. Or he might tell his work mates that she's at the beach. Maybe she was waiting to meet him after he finished? Maybe he didn't even work that day & so i'm dribbling on... So many possibilites though for this poor girl. I hope the police are closing in. Sometimes i wonder if some random starting chatting to her on the beach & scoped out whether anyone was nearby?

I was thinking too of that poor girl who was murdered by the school cleaner. Maybe she had someone like that who heard her saying she was going to the beach. She looked like a friendly girl, so maybe wasn’t careful on who she told what to or who overheard. Infuriating to think someone/s walking around free right now.

I wonder if any changes have been made since 2000.
Wangetti Beach appears to have a history.

TGY, there are very large areas of land around this area under the Wet Tropic Management Authority. Wangetti is just a small part of it. So not out of the ordinary for up there.

Police Reluctant To Say Whether Murder Victim Went To Wangetti Alone

It's now 23 days and counting.
By now the investigators have asked the 'hard' questions of many people. They've looked at the reactions and body language. They have given everyone they have encountered that cold hard stare that detectives seem to possess.
Alibis have been checked out.

Do they have DNA? If they do have how long does it take in Australia for any results to come back from the lab?

So 23 days after this dreadful homicide and the police haven't nominated a POI (Person Of Interest),

If this is a crime of opportunity and carried out by a stranger to Toyah it is going to be difficult to solve.
More so if the perpetrator is 'clean' with no information in any data base.

So worrying. I do not believe it would take over 23 days for DNA here in Australia and I imagine they made the tests a priority. However, in the past if there have been concerns for public safety they will usually let us know. They not in this case, which may suggest they are looking a little closer to home or perhaps it is they have no idea at all

What was your idea about this TGY? Might Toyah have confronted someone being "environmentally inappropriate"? Someone who perhaps had a chainsaw?

Article in the Cairns Post yesterday -

Quoted from article-

More than 800 calls have been made to Crime Stoppers in relation to the homicide investigation.

“Now the police have got to work their way through all the information,” Ms Cochrane said.

“Even though people think nothing is happening, it certainly is happening behind the scenes with the police.

“They’re doing their job putting the pieces together.”

Paddock bashing, quad biking, maybe bogans in general.
Maybe some idiot drove over a sand hill and hit Toyah.
Dunno I wish I knew JLZ, just sleuthing anything in general.

Well that’s what I wonder with those guys with the flat tyre and all in a flap to catch up with their mate’s car. Maybe one of them hit her by accident and they all freaked out??

 

[BreakingNews]

Maybe they are trawling through the 600 phone calls and heaps of web cam footage. Might have suspect, but might might need to place them near the scene or something.

LE seems reasonably sure it was sexually motivated (found unclothed or there was obvious signs of rape). They also got that DNA from somewhere, it is doubtful a hit and run would have dragged her into the treeline.
Which brings me to noodling over why this perp didn't put her in the sea? Its like he wanted her to be found.

if she was assausted higher up in the dunes/trees it would be much easier to leave her there rather than risk being seen dragging her into the sea, especially as it probably all happened in daylight?

Have you got a link please? I wasn’t aware of these specifics.

Yes, and dragging her into the sea might not clear all the DNA anyway and he would have had to drag her out a long way and she would have just been washed back up. He might have also just fled without anything rational going on in his head. Would make a good PHD thesis - what goes on in the heads of murderers just after the deed?
