Perhaps he swapped the plates of the Magna with the Toyota Cornona…
Thanks kiwiNZ....replying now .....just gotta work out what quote is then haha.... I’ll keep practicingJust hit the reply button bottom right
Makes sense then.
He also had a Datsun /Nissan bluebird blue in colour at the time he bought the Magna I believe a wagon. I think he discarded this car. MHO I think this car should be checked out.
I agree. -- If you follow the idea that the simplest explanation based on known evidence is the right one, the postcards were waylaid before posting; Marion did fly home-- and for a significant reason; Marion made the withdrawals. If the mystery car has relevance, then it almost certainly implies Marion came home. Why else would RB buy a rust bucket? Unless RB and Diane were planning to use the car for bank withdrawals in case anyone was watching what they drove. One thing for certain, RB thinks he's smarter than everyone. He builds plans believing them to be fool-proof.
I believe the postcards could have been given by Marion to the hotel to post,that was common practice when I worked in the industry and cards were not always posted promptly. We know that Marion said in the last phone call to Sally that she was going to be out of touch for a while.. she may have already been en route back to Australia, but we also know she had been secretive about RB and her name change etc. However, if Marion was returning because she had rumbled RB, her money was being stolen etc, I think she would have enlisted Sally's help at that point. So i believe that Marion was at that time still fully invested in RB and their new life. All MOO obvs
I agree that MB would have told Sally on that last call if she was suspicious of RB. IMO RB told MB that he had to do urgent business somewhere and that he would be back as he told others. She must have sounded OK on the phone to Sally otherwise Sally would have been suspicious. Was she encouraged to make that call by someone who had befriended her who could have been RB's partner in crime and RB had told MB that he would take her to Amsterdam. Perhaps they went on a boat and MB's body was thrown overboard? Not sure if he could get away with it on a ferry. I really don't think that MB had any inkling that RB was going to withdraw her money at that stage and she was looking forward to the Amsterdam trip and I don't think she would have come back so soon to withdraw her own money. She seemed to have enough for her travels with her.
IMO RB only told the story about Wollongbar so he could place suspicion on another man - the tall pilot in uniform.
Does anyone remember a Facebook post that Sally received which claimed that Sally was still alive in Australia and wanted nothing to do with her family or something like that. IIRC it was someone using the name, "Clive"? I have always thought that RB using a fake FB profile sent that to Sally. Does anyone remember it?
Imagine a tall pilot in his full uniform travelling to Wollongbar to pick up tea chests, from a garage. Did he land a plane in the driveway, or perhaps a helicopter in the front yard? Even if he was a tall pilot, I'm fairly sure he would be wearing casual clothes. I think the only tall thing about this ..it is a fabricated tall tale, a hallmark of the fraudster, AKA.
Yes a pilot would never pick up tea chests in his uniform!
or if Marion did meet her demise overseas, the postcards were found by the perpetrator and posted a different intervals to give family here a feeling that MB was still alive long after her death.
