Relowicz never mentioned it could be Libby
Mr Chrostek says he knew about Libby was missing but he did not know it was the same girl Relowicz had mentioned, although the two had discussed Libby.

He said: “Only that I had seen a girl was missing.

“He didn’t mention that he recognised her or that it could be the same girl that was in his car.”

Oh dear

This is killer evidence. He links the wounds to Libby.

Definitely.

I wonder if he was trying the story on for size with his friend? Realised from his reaction or something that it might not wash, so he changed it.

Relowicz claimed to friend Libby scratched his face
Mr Chrostek has told the court that Relowicz told him the girl “started to undo his trouser belt and he said, ‘what are you doing?’ And because he was driving he stopped and told her to get out.

“He said she started shouting and scratched Pawel on the face.”

Mr Chrostek said he could see “two or three” scratches on Relowicz’s face.

His lies are just unravelling

 

[CoverMeCagney]

So, he was wearing joggers which I’m pretty sure don’t require a belt? So how could she allegedly be ‘undoing’ them?
Also now two differing stories about the facial scratches. He’s tripping himself up with his lies....

No, he was wearing jeans

 

[Tortoise]

But isn't that what makes it incriminating given what else we know?

Not really as far as premeditation goes. It could be argued and I'm sure it will be, that he ran off because she was screaming (had been screaming in the road earlier too "She said: “I saw a girl at the bus stop near Haworth Street. She was lying on the floor, crying and screaming. She was in a state.") and left her there, thought she might have laid in the snow and died from the cold, and was looking to see if she was there hidden by the trees or something. He could also have lost something there like her clothing (dropped his trophy) or glasses.

Compulsive liar. Pretty sure the jury will have their verdict outcome already tbh. What a nasty, nasty piece of work. Justice for Libby.

Where do people keep getting the idea that he was wearing joggers from?

I don’t know, perhaps he wore them on his other little trips prowling the streets.

The judge said in his opening statements that Relowicz was wearing jeans that night.

 

[PitchforkRed]

The bit he said about not having a driving licence...so he was driving illegally as well? I believe you are allowed to drive in the UK with an EU licence for 12 months, but he'd been here longer than that hadn't he?

Edit, sorry just had a look back, he said he was 'still learning' to drive. He was getting a lot of late-night practice in, obviously.

True - brain fart by me.

Police are saying he wore jeans with black bands on them when he was with Libby.
EDIT: Apologies I typed this before reading all the replies and see others have explained this too.

my apologies you’re right! Too much reading and not enough soaking in!

Relowicz confided in a second friend
Rafal Mrowczynski told the court that, during a journey to work, Relowicz said he came across a girl in Haworth Street who was saying “she wanted her mum.”

Mr Mrowczynski said Relowicz told him the girl was “acting strangely” and “seemed to be under the influence of something but not alcohol.”

He added: “He said he offered to take her to her home. He said he got into the car and he asked if she knew the address, she said she didn’t but would show him.”

Mr Mrowczynski says Relowicz told him the girl was crying and “asking for her mum” and that “he drove along and she started to undress herself and started taking off her pants and he got scared and he told her to get out of the car and she did and walked off".

That line again about it being something other than alcohol!

Friend urged Relowicz to contact the police
Mr Mrowczynski says the next day he told Relowicz to tell the police about it after he had asked him if he knew a girl was missing.

He said: “I told him and he said ‘it wasn’t the same girl’ and I said ‘How do you know?’ and he said because he saw her picture."

Maybe because his shoes are referred to trainers. I think. For some reason I thought sweatpants not sneakers when I first read trainers. MOO

 

[Officer Dibble]

Interesting line about her taking off her pants in the car. Preparing himself for her possibly being found later with none on and his possible evidence on them?

 

[VicBlazey]

That line again about it being something other than alcohol!

It certainly keeps cropping up doesn’t it. Very interested to see whether toxicology will show something in her system, if they are even still able to test for such things after she was missing for so long.

No claims of sex taking place
Dale Brook, defending, asked Mr Mrowczynski whether Relowicz told him he had sexual intercourse with the girl he met that night.

Mr Mrowczynski said: “No he did not say that.”

That's a lot of references to drugs. JMO
