Gary Jubelin wrote a 7 page letter to the Coroner (his opinions), giving her what he thought were salient points.

David Laidlaw supplied his Statement of Facts (which turned out to be opinion), giving the Coroner what he thought were salient points.

I don't think Hans Rupp provided anything separately, though whatever happened in the first 5 months of the investigation would have been in the police brief.

The Coroner probably believed nothing further could be obtained by calling them to the stand.

imo
That sounds about right.

With all due respect, Jubes lost all credibility and his professionalism when he badgered a the wrong person. He is now a convicted criminal himself. I fail to see how he can manage to put himself out there about a case he himself mismanaged for 4 years.He never addressed any of the numerous inconsistencies with the ex foster parents.
I'm sure this sentiment isn't unique, or irrelevant to later proceedings.

A suspect in case "missing little Gus" - I'm waiting for GJ's expertise and opinion now.

Came across these comments from Gary Jubelin:

“One thing I learnt through William Tyrrell thing is that speculation and rumours can impact on a lot of people. I don’t think there’s need for this.

“I think we should put our trust in the South Australia Police. They’ve kept the public informed where they need to.

“Now, I think the best thing would be to step back and let police do their job. The investigation would be best served if we (don’t) speculate what happened to Gus and let’s wait and find out at the conclusion of the investigation.”

Have to say I agree.

JMO - Not meaning to become involved in the search for Gus Lamont, but I wonder if the National Search and Rescue Manual information could have been accessed and used in the early search for William Tyrrell!

Inside the 'textbook' search for Gus Lamont
"Jim Whitehead spent more than 15 years as Queensland's search and rescue coordinator, and was instrumental in the development of the National Search and Rescue Manual cited by Detective Superintendent Fielke.
Dr Whitehead, a former senior sergeant who said he had been involved in approximately 15,000 search and rescue operations, compiled the data used in the report."
“While police have said they remain committed to finding Gus, Dr Whitehead described their efforts so far as a "textbook search".”

"They've done the areas of highest probability first, they've searched around the homestead and worked their way outwards, they've done the mine shafts and all those sort of things," he said.”

Now if we are talking wild conspiracy theories, than I have to wonder if GJ was set up by members of his team?? Revenge & grudges maybe??
Imo that’s very possible . .. and I think his ego was such that he walked right into their trap.

Just my personal thoughts.

Yes, police have done a great job of the search. I wonder if the extensive search was done, and abduction ruled out to leave just one last theory. Something happened to Gus by someone known to him. I suspect police thought this theory high on the list from the start.

Wonder what makes them think Gus is dead. Was blood found? Imagine poor little Gus last moments. Moo.

Just my personal thoughts.

He'd burned bridges within the police department, and was not popular with his superiors. That's the sort of environment that sets someone up for a fall -- one way or another.

My personal feeling is that his being front and centre of the 'Underbelly: Badness' TV series would not have helped his reputation within the force, either.

As I've said here before, writing a book and creating a series with the title of "I Catch Killers" puts his ego right up there ahead of the police teamwork that is usually involved in solving crimes.
