If the question is how Colin knew about the complaints, they would have been a substantial annoyance in Spedding's life during his years with Margaret. So I suggest that Colin either knew about them over the years from his own interactions with Spedding, or knew about them from his wife, Margaret's cousin. Not necessarily in detail.
I agree, it seems the family members and some friends may have known of these allegations forever, not the details though, as none seemed surprised and quick to jump in to defend him when the news broke. I do however think it was an issue that came up in the police interview and that is why CY broached the subject in the media, based on the charges that came out about 3 months later. IMO

ty been a while since going to a school, old granny here
:D

Is there a drop off/ parking within school grounds or did they park on the street? Someone must have seen his car? If not Bs was never there. I tried to look at google maps and it looks like there’s a time limit on parking. But I can’t read the sign clearly.

Coroner is on site according to The Daily Telegraph. Which is paywalled.

His business was in the same street as the school, I think there is parking at the rear of the business premises.

As he has an office, perhaps he also has a private off-street car space.

If he was calling/trying to call foster family from the office about fixing the washing machine that morning, he must have had an appropriate vehicle with him. I would like to know whether that means the van or he deemed an ordinary car adequate.

A couple of photos from the article in my previous post:

The article reported that the Deputy Coroner also visited the Batar Creek Road search site.

Worked for me this time too. Woohoo!
ETA- It kicked me out before I could read it :rolleyes:

The story was basically that the Deputy Coroner, Harriet Grahame, has visited the Benaroon Drive and Batar Creek Road search sites and if an inquest was called she would hear it.

The pair wandered the front lawn and inspected the driveway area before getting in a 4WD and heading into the nearby bush at the end of Benaroon Dr.

Examined the area and inspected the driveway area, but isn't it assumed William was grabbed to the side where the mysterious cars were parked

When questioned about the doll, his wife Margaret told police it was gifted to him by a four-year-old child 'to keep him company when he was driving', according to the Daily Telegraph.

Police found a Spiderman doll in Spedding’s Volkswagen work van — a toy he claimed was given to him by his grandson to keep him company.

As I said: MS and BS were not in agreement about the toy. If it hadn't to do with a missing little boy and abduction, of course the different statements would be unimportant and ridiculous. But in this case, it might be not that unimportant, IMO.

Because MS description of the child is not in quotes, I just assume, she said one of the grankids gave it to him, and the journo might have asked how old the grandchild was... however I see your point, might be important or not. The awkward wording attributed to the journalist might have been that the child was one of MS grandkids who had been removed from her kinship care and there may have been concerns about how to describe him so as not to identify him as per FACS policy, maybe. And your point was that MS had said it was gifted to BS from the child of a client.

Ok, if serious, then how can you state that it was "only police that would know this and report it", when it was clearly stated in MSM, where you are getting your information from, that it was CY, and NOT the police that told them so?

This is the article:

"A friend of Mr Spedding’s said yesterday that police had questioned Mr Spedding about “why the phone calls were no longer in the call log on his mobile phone.”"

Is it possible that the question was raised because BS said he had made those phone calls yet they were not in his phone log when LE checked? Is it possible that the actual issue is not that he deleted phone logs but that he never actually made the calls he said he did...or perhaps he had a bagful of other mobile phones to use as Crabstick was wont to say. Just a thought.
