We're here for a little Boy, and I feel it's appropriate to maintain 'suitable & respectful behaviour' in his honour.

BBM.

Bless you, W. Not only wonderful sentiments but an ideal for everyone to aspire to uphold. I can assure you, I’m certainly not here to be a ‘right-fighter’, but to honour a little boy and his loved ones to whom a terrible tragedy has occurred. It’s the least I can do.

And the highest honour that we can show to William and his entire family is to stay with this until justice is served and they have some answers. Thank goodness for Jubes and his whole team.

Anyway spedding is there in the firing line for a resason. I hope all the findings during the inquest are public .

Hi All,new to posting but not new to the forum,I have been reading here from the start.
Has it been mentioned if MS has been asked to attend the inquest,afterall she is BS biggest alibi.
Also,I live in a small town and imo unless BS and MS were dressed in camo gear and hiding behind a bush they would have been seen at the assembly that morning,I go to small town gatherings and unless you are zoned out and staring into space there is no way you do not know who is around you,unless Im a super sticky beak,were the kids quickly ushered back into the class rooms after the assembly or were they allowed to go to the parents/grandparents to show them what awards they might have got that day,the teachers would still have a duty to know where the kids were after the assembly, all we know is that nobody in that small group can put their hand up and say that BS and MS were there.
Bringing in the New Year hoping that this year will bring justice and answers for you William.

Thank you Ruby, from another ex-'small towner' who understands your observations 100% and agrees 100%. IMO. Also an ex teacher and deputy who fully understands the workings of schools and parades or assemblies, whichever term is preferred, and again, you are 100% spot on IMO.

And a very warm welcome, although I feel a little embarrassed doing that as there are far longer serving members here than me and I still feel as if it's their 'house'. Although they're such wonderful people I know they wouldn't believe that.

Ans a very warm welcome, although I feel a little embarrassed doing that as there are far longer serving members here than me and I still feel as if it's their 'house'. Although they're such wonderful people I know they wouldn't believe that.

And isn't it correct that the teaching staff are very aware of who is at their assemblies? Even if they do not have a sign-in book for such things?

I remember when my daughter was in primary school, a silver haired man used to ride by the school every morning around 8:30am, on his bike, looking at the children. Us mums noticed it. One day he stopped and called a young girl over to the fence. The teacher on duty was quick off the mark, following the girl and finding out that this man was a complete stranger trying to be chatty with the little girl.

After that, there was a police car parked near the school in the early mornings and afternoons. The silver haired man very soon stopped riding by the school.

Very much so, along with the admin who caste a very wide and thorough inspection of who's there. Family & friends mightn't be aware that it's happening, but trust me it does. It's part of the duty of care, as well as seeing who (in terms of students) has support there and who doesn't, for all sorts of reasons.

You know, SA, exact same scenario happened at a school I was at - fence, bike, chatting up kids------- police. But my school was between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Seems it might be a regular modus operandi to get close to kids? IMO

Here’s wishing everyone a safe New Year’s Eve; especially William’s loved ones. And if the New Year can’t bring their boy home to them, I hope it will at least bring them answers.

I would like to know what I missed in regard to how you all seem to know that there was nobody at the school awards assembly that could vouch for BS's attendance that day (aside from his wife perhaps). Admittedly, I do miss some things from time to time on this thread. I'm not sure they even asked people until some months later (January? - some 4 months later?), however I am gathering that in small towns, it's different, and people have good eyes and even better memories, so his presence wouldn't have been missed.. but where is it reported that nobody could state that he was there?

 

[SouthAussie]

.. but where is it reported that nobody could state that he was there?

I think it is more about ..... where is it reported that an independent witness states that he was there?

I think it is a big assumption to think that the police waited for 4 long months to check up on him.

Mr Spedding took part in a 10-page recorded interview with detectives soon after little William went missing on the day the tradesman was due to fix the toddler’s grandmother’s washing machine.
...... detectives allegedly found some inconsistencies in what Mr Spedding told them ....

.....and still haven't charged him or formally interviewed him as a suspect over 4 years later...... if there were a contradictory statement against BS's account, e.g being seen in Benaroon Dr. that morning or anywhere else other than where he stated, surely he would have been questioned about that under caution by now..

 

[SouthAussie]

.....and still haven't charged him or formally interviewed him as a suspect over 4 years later......

.... and still have him slated as a POI/suspect who has been subpeonaed to attend the first round of the inquest.

I think the 10 page recorded statement that I mentioned in my above post is likely considered a formal interview.

 

[sleepinoz]

.....and still haven't charged him or formally interviewed him as a suspect over 4 years later......

If he's given a 10 page statement - he's been formally interviewed.

 

[sleepinoz]

“What he said did not add up because people he named did not remember seeing him,” a source alleged.

I mean under caution

 

[SouthAussie]

I mean under caution

I have never read that the statement was not under caution. Is that in the 60 Minutes interview, too?

 

[sleepinoz]

I mean under caution

Doubt they'd caution anyone giving a first formal statement. That's the one that didn't add up and hence they searched his property.

 

[frogwell]

I have never read that the statement was not under caution. Is that in the 60 Minutes interview, too?

If it was under caution then he would have been deemed a suspect and surely reported in MSM that he was a suspect.

........as a suspect, is what I wrote

 

[SouthAussie]

If it was under caution then he would have been deemed a suspect and surely reported in MSM that he was a suspect.

I think he has been called a suspect in MSM. Not that any of us know if the initial 10 page recorded statement was made under caution or not.

A day after police began searching a new area just 4km from where William Tyrrell went missing it has been revealed that police have focused on five "high priority" suspects.
The Australian reports that the first high-profile suspect in the investigation remains “a person of interest” but there are also four other “high priority” suspects being looked at.

The man identified as a prime suspect by police, in the weeks after his disappearance has always maintained he had nothing to do with it.
A police investigation learned the man had been at the home William went missing from days earlier to quote on a washing machine repair and returned a week later to complete the job.
The man provided police with DNA swabs and was subsequently charged with unrelated offences.
