Is it the kind of vehicle a person allegedly planning to be involved in a child abduction would drive? Not in my mind. They are normally noisy and standout to be identified due to size and brand recognition.

What if (scenario only) the green car man - with red hair - saw the potential when he turned there, and then came back a little later - would he have time to find a better vehicle? The patience? Just my thoughts...

A message posted by Lia before she started reporting today.

...For those following my tweets, please be aware that William’s foster parents have been cleared of any involvement in his disappearance. Speculation suggesting otherwise is not relevant or helpful.

The laws of the land must be obeyed. Name and photo suppression is there for a reason.

Anyone who wants to find out someone's identity can easily do it these days though. Covering up identities in this case hasn't been helpful with at all. The law needs to move with the times and accept that people can find things out without names even being published.
It might not have been issue - but they have another child - who deserves anonymity...

Yup, and we all know her name. Everyone who has any interest in the case knows her name. And it's not because of the MSM.

I'm not saying there needs to be some kind of blanket publicity of foster kids but in *this case* finding William should have been the priority over protecting the identity of a kid that everyone with even a small interest in the case could have found anyway (without reading a single MSM article). The law needs to move with the times.

eta I feel the same about the journos being prosecuted for naming Pell before they should have. We all just went and read US or UK sites to find out who it was. It was on the Internet within moments of the first verdict. The law just refuses to accept the reality of the Internet - you can't hide anything.

The foster father tells the court he was concerned about the many creeks and dams in the bushland behind the properties while searching for William. @10Daily @10NewsFirst

William Tyrrell inquest day 3 has begun with his foster dad giving evidence - he's going over a map of Benaroon drive telling the inquest what ground he covered in the immediate search @10NewsFirstSyd @10NewsFirst

I remember Mrs. Wilson quoted as saying she had left around 9am. (Same approx time as FD, as it turns out.)

Id love to know where Mr Wilson was and what time did he leave after his wife.
He pinpointed the time Mrs W left but in an article I read Mrs w said she was not home and my husband was not home.
It was Mrs W in an article said she’d heard the children playing next door.

I can’t find the article that states this now.

William’s foster father tells the court he searched until “the sun was starting to go down” on that first day. He said he began to worry about “food and water and shelter” if he was lost in the bush. @10NewsFirst @10Daily

The police took no action neither did FACS to remove telephone directory listings.

To tell you the truth - i'm trying hard & i can't remember her name! Anyway, I think we know where you stand and that's fine. Different strokes for different folks :)

I feel that you wouldn't have such a strong reaction to see the make of car. I think it was the actual car. She said the police identified "the car" not the make of car.
I'm not sure.. because if she saw a photograph of the same model in the same color, she may very well have the same reaction.. how would she be able to tell whether that was or was not the 'same'/actual car? But if police *were* able to track down that actual car (like say if it was the postie driving that car that day, or something, or someone who came forward like they were supposed to, and said, hey I was in that neighbourhood that day.. blah blah), that is great, but then they wouldn't still need to be doing drawings.. because knowing the actual vehicle, would also give the actual driver, wouldn't it?

to be clear I do think that while the law stands, you need to follow that law. especially journalists, because it's their career and professional ethical responsibility to follow the law. I just think the law is an 🤬🤬🤬 (sometimes). in *this* case, trying to cover up identities has slowed down the investigation imo. but change comes slowly, etc

anyway it's mostly beside the point and yeah, I don't want to clog up this magnificent thread with philosophical debate

I often wonder how 'controlled' the search was on the first day, after a FB call out.

There would have been a number of cars coming and going during the initial period, did Police watch all cars?

I know. I wish one of those houses on the street had a security camera.
When it was first announced in the media about the cars I did wonder at the timing and if it was a tactic by police to make a POI think they had been seen.
That is very surprising that none of the homes had security cams?? Maybe we will find out eventually that there were some?? On second thought, I guess not, or perhaps we'd have the perp behind bars by now!
