My opinion is that WA didn't have anywhere near the sufficient preparedness to deal with these crimes. While they did employ innovative software and investigative techniques and structures, the information overload and lack of evidence was immense.
I also believe that David Caporn single handedly destroyed any potential this investigation had.
Despite all of this, the fact remains that the WA Police inquiries into these crimes have been largely responsive to incoming information. Their use of academic profiling is minimal and noticeable patterns in local geography, criminal behaviour and local factors relevant to Claremont and it's surrounds have been largely unexplored. I think there is a real chance of solving these crimes by opening up new avenues , especially seeing as the the abductions themselves were concentrated so much in the one area.
