Except the inquest testimony was that Mrs Crabb heard the car come up the road reasonably fast, do a u-turn, and continue on its way.
If it was FM, surely the vehicle sound would have been of a vehicle going down the road (receding from their hearing), and then coming back up?

And if it was FM coming up the road reasonably fast, she wouldn't have been u-turning and continuing back down the road. She would have been parking in the carport.
Maybe the ffcg took
two drives that morning, one to squirrel a lifeless spiderman away from the home and the second trip, as she was arriving home and noticed, to get rid of Wm's shoes.
Much out of place driving on B drive that morning.
IMO, based on her named as a sole PIO, she was in a harried hurry, getting Wm gone
before her husband returned (and also before the fgma and the fd saw what happened).
I feel like she retrieved Wm's body later and hid him better, maybe on a subsequent -- and solo --- trip back to the fgma's house -- hence unfindable in the recent search. Oh, yes, (I do believe) he was there once... but altogether gone now.
It wasn't the police she was hiding him from IMO (well not in the instant); she was hiding him from the fmcg and the fggma and the fd.
No one was supposed to know about the car ride that morning.
One other thing -- deep down, I can't help but wonder if she blames poor Wm for the situation he got them into - if he had settled down, minded, rolled dice properly, drew pictures correctly, if he'd just have been a good little girl like the fd...if he'd just have shown more interest in giving socially (whuh huh what????), then she shouldn't have had to... what? Discipline him? Chase after him? Was Wm running from a wooden spoon? Fear? Mischief? Was it fear or a game to him?
What if he never actually fell?
What if the ffcg found him? Hanging from the railing, caught tragically by his clothing perhaps...
She could have carried him to the car, returned to the house to make tea, sat a short, short spell with the fgma and then, with some fanfare, made a point of saying, "alas, I don't hear Wm"... and going 'round the corner again, as if the for the first... rounding the corner and driving away with Wm.
She would've had plenty of time.... while the fgma sipped her tea and the fd drew pictures...
For me, a calculated risk assessment: report the accident, jeopardize custody of the fd. Be labeled negligent. Bad mom. Bad person. Or cover it up.
The cost of The Truth was too high.
