Even if for some bizarre reason they think someone charged with murder isn't a risk to others they'll absolutely have to remand him for his own protection.
I'm watching the comments with curiosity as I feel like there's some kind of 'lookism' going on here...as if there's a human desire that good looking people aren't bad people because they're nice looking, and that a bad person must be horrible and scary looking...a way to make sense of the world. But a very naive way.
I have noticed some attackers and killers have been nice looking men. Libby's killer, PR, he was a nice looking young man and look what he was in to? The boy who murdered the little girl on Bute was a nice looking boy (except for his eyes). But there was something very wrong inside those looks.
I think it's about some human desire to be able to recognise evil and know what to avoid. An expectation that a decent looking young man can get girls without attacking them. But what if inside they have the desire to feel someone's life slipping away in their hands? And remember it's a power thing, control over the life of another human being, the ultimate control to take the life of another human being. It's not about sex as most of us understand sex. That's what I meant when I said I don't believe it was about sex, yet I still expect some kind of sex assault component to it. The Yorkshire Ripper had a sexual component to it.
“Section 114(2) provides that bail may not be granted to someone charged with murder unless the court is satisfied that there is no significant risk that, if released on bail, that person would commit an offence that would be likely to cause physical or mental injury to another person. In coming to that decision, the court must have regard to the nature and seriousness of the offence, the suspects character and antecedents and his record in relation to previous grants of bail.”

I wonder if the mobile phone was also left at the bus-stop and picked up by someone thinking "cool a free phone" but then handed it in when they realised it had something to do with the investigation once the police mentioned the place she was last seen.
Moo ..she was found on beach.. it it flat land or did she go off a cliff down to beach?...do not know landscape around there.

My surprise was because this seems to be a socially functional person, who is popular. Naturally, much more may emerge and there’s no reason such a person may not be a suspect in a case like this either, as such, and I can see why people would challenge my instincts there — but that was what my comment was based on.
Thank you for this picshe was found in the wooded area by the beach, not on it, this is a photo of the beach,
I've been thinking similarly).Also I found a site that reviewed Rakuda’s music. He was the main songwriter. It reviews the music as aggressive and the lyrics as assertive and arrogant “I want to enter your mind, enter your soul etc”.
the above might be complete frippery just thought it was interesting. Trying to find actual song lyrics!
I am a heterosexual woman and I certainly don't find him ugly, but to me, he is very ordinary looking, I would not say good looking. Although I don't think that has anything to do with it.I knew I should have clarified my own post earlier…
There is no “lookism” on my part and it’s interesting people went right to that based on comments that a suspect wasn’t what might be expected. I’m a lesbian and don’t find men attractive at all, nor am I (I am told) very good at telling you which ones are objectively good-looking…

Not sure why people are assuming someone in a band must be socially adequate or outgoing. As someone who used to manage bands I can assure you I came across many guys who had terrible social skills and anxiety once they put their guitars/drum sticks down. Alcohol plays a big part in being a social-crutch.
I would bet that there is some extreme *advertiser censored* in the mix and probably from an early age. They get twisted ideas about sex.I've been thinking similarly).
Mulling things over, I find it really difficult to understand how some perpetrators (such as Cody Ackland) throw everything away 'in order to commit a crime such as this'. They never seem to look at the prospect of losing their freedom if they abduct someone, assault them/kill them. I imagine in many (?) cases that their intention wasn't to kill, but, that ' things went wrong'. Or, they thought they'd simply get away with it?
