Australia Australia - Marion Barter - Missing After Trip to UK - June 1997 #22

Whilst I am still searching for personal ads on Trove that may be attributed to AKA, the one we all know about in Le Courrier Australien (10 Dec 1994) now has an interesting tag!! The tag states "MF Remakel - Stop lying Joni. Joni tell the truth. Shame on TVL for dragging an innocent man a victim himself through the mud. the mud. Your podcast sucks." This was probably added prior to the Coroner’s Findings, but who would have been invested enough to have written such a tirade?

Cant see how you'd know if it was put up pre Coroners findings if you only saw it yesterday?

It could have been up for ages or more recently?

I think someone had found it earlier and S and J already were told about it and only now it has been shared on here.
Makes no sense otherwise to suggest it was done prior ???

It could be his kids who did it or that woman who always posts in his favour on the FB page, as I mentioned above?

In any case, hopefully this can be traced!

I think the tagged comments were probably added prior to the Coroner’s Findings because the report confirmed AKA was (not allegedly) neither entirely innocent nor a victim. But, I can also see now that it may have been added since, because of the vitriol directed at TLV and Joni as it was this personal advertisement that brought the whole house of cards tumbling down!

Yes completely agree.

Its totally bizarre. Someone has it in for them.
I can think of 2 females that use to comment on their FB page in support of AH
Or its his kids.

Lets hope the tags can be tracked

It been there for a few years, I believe it was fruit loop who tried to claim the reward - the person has a FB page they have every conspiracy theory going, they are based in the south of England. MBMP page had to block the person

Yes that UK woman really gave them grief.

So you think those tags have been there for few years??? Cause Im not so sure. I dont remember seeing the numericals beside the tag icon before @Liselle pointed it out.

yes it has been there a few years, at the time I check the fruit loops FB page and they had made the same / similar comment on there about dragging RB's name through the mud lol

Trying to find her FB page again

 

[VisitorDog]

Sounds like the type of person that writes to inmates.

Ok so yeah that probs is that UK nutter , although she wanted the reward, so saying her ex was guilty at the time.

Im more inclined to think either of the 2 Aussie women, that 1 from geelong and another one who use to really have it in for SL

This is her here, without naming her. But a search will find her easy enough.

Im more inclined to think its one of the other women here in Aust

It is my understanding that the coming trip to Japan is to research as many documents as possible with death certificate in hand. Two, part of the issue has been the language barrier and lack of documents online. So the idea is to speak to people in person with an interpreter.

I wonder if Aka has tried to make any enquiries in Japan to see what records might be held for him? In fact it would be interesting to get hold of his phone, email, text records and Internet searches since NSW Police tapped on his door about Marion. Saying that no doubt they will screw up that line of enquiry too.

I found a page about her - I think you are right - these tags would be right up her alley

That reminds me

I found something about a person - Aussie police looking into it at the time. The Japan Flyer Robber
