There is an error with a name. Should be Sarah Anne McMahon (not Marie)
ReplyDeleteYou also might want to include [in your excellent timelien] the death of Brigitta Dickens on 18/7/1994. Her then boyfriend Simon Rochford was convicted of her murder. He was also named as the 'new' suspect regarding Pamela Lawrence's murder. He committed suicide in prison when this info was released to the press. It is believed forensic fingerprint evidence found at the Lawrence scene linked Rochford there. It so happened that Rochford and Mallard shared a cell in Albany Prison at one stage.
I think the Birnies murdered Sharon Mason. They picked up 2 of their victims on Stirling Hwy and another somewhere in Nedlands. Sharon Mason disappeared from Mosman Park which in on Stirling Hwy. Mason was murdered 3 years before the other known Birnie murders and I suspect he murdered others in the period between.
ReplyDeleteThe Parmelia Hilton is on Mount Street Perth not St George's Tce.
ReplyDeleteYou could well be correct about Birnies but there is other compelling evidence that needs to be thoroughly investigated. Arthur Boycott Greer is definitely not responsible.
A witness in the Mason case has stated Mason was in Mount Street Perth the afternoon of her disappearance.
Does anyone know the date of birth for Kerry Turner and Kerryn Tate please?
ReplyDeletewas any of the victims the owner/s of blavk satin like material jacket, seiko watch, silver ring with rope pattern.
