Things getting tense - William's mum slips up and names a protected person she tells the Coroner "They all know our names what’s the big deal?" Coroner: For the protection of your children it’s a big deal. "You made my name public!" Coroner: I’ve never done that. "I’ll lose it."

William’s biological mother tells the court she was in Sydney the day William went missing and went shopping to prepare for the arrival of the a baby. She was heavily pregnant at the time. @10Daily @10NewsFirst

Question about timing. The text message FF sent, we think about 10:30. Did FM read this before FF got home, or was she preoccupied searching for William? Or did she receive it before she noticed William was missing, and if that's the case, was he present, or potentially already disappeared? And what time actually was the message? (Would there be a record? I don't text.) It seems like this would narrow down the time of the disappearance and with so much happening in a few minutes, it seems it would help.[/QUO
