UK - Libby Squire, 21, last seen outside Welly club, Hull, 31 Jan 2019 #21

Apologies, I've well and truly mucked that last quote up. Follow the link for the 'green shed' in question, probably.

A green shed which can be seen from the exact spot @CoverMeCagney identified.

This is why the accused should not have testified

Absolutely agree and this is why I assume he went against counsel advice as who would put him on stand?

Mr Wright said: “At 12.19am when you drove away, Libby Squire was stood on Oak Road opposite the metal shed.”

Is this supposed to be a question or a statement? It reads to me like the prosecutor is stating a fact but maybe he is asking PR if this is his story?

Relowicz said: “I think I left at 12.17am or something like that. I can’t remember.

Oh, come on! Who would say that? You'd say something like "about a quarter past", wouldn't you.

of course you would...he’s clearly trying to match his testimony to the prosecution timeline and then shave off a few more minutes to make it look even less likely they could have been down by the river

He ought to just give up now, admit his guilt and get it over and done with.

Surprised he didn't say he screams like a woman!

There's still time

Surprised he didn't say he screams like a woman!

Still scarred by the Pistorius trial hey, Jitty!!

Relowicz said: “When I was driving away she then started screaming and crying. In my opinion that’s how it looked like. The windows were pulled down I could hear all the time.

Why would he have his windows down?

Prosecution puts it to Relowicz he put Libby in the river

Mr Wright said: “This is not a coincidence that there was another man in tight trousers attacking a woman by the river that night. This man was you and Libby Squire was screaming and she was screaming because you were overpowering her, raping her and attacking her.

“You put her in the river didn’t you? Dead, dying or alive, you put her in the river. You caused her to enter that water didn’t you?

“I’m going to suggest there is confusion and then there is confusion. You say that on your account Libby made the decision not just to turn left on Beresford Avenue but had to turn around to a dark road and across a park towards the water. Is that what you’re suggesting must have happened?”

Relowicz said: “I don’t know what happened with her as I was not there at the time.”

Mr Wright said: “As you drove away from Oak Road, I just want to be clear, was your thinking and your mind that you had done nothing wrong to that girl?”

Relowicz said: “I’m 100 per cent sure I had done nothing to that girl.”

Relowicz questioned about his five versions of events

Mr Wright said: “You had no reason to lie about your contact with her? Why is this the fifth version of events you have given?”

Relowicz said: “This is the only one true version.”

Mr Wright asked: “Why have you given other versions?”

Relowicz says he was lying previously.

Wonder if the cctv of the car is clear enough to show whether or not the windows were down ?

 

[mrazda71]

I feel a mic drop coming ...

I also think hes said he parked by the green shed because that would place him further away from the river. I still believe he parked right by the gate to the park.

“And Mr Alford described that man wearing tight trousers or jeans."

It was light trousers, not tight!

 

[JusticeDT]

Why would he have his windows down?

I wondered if had locked the doors when Libby was in his car and she opened them to scream or try and escape

Yep, that confused me too. Must be the latter.

 

[Winterbells]

Didn't he say, when he was talking about the seatbelt something like 'so she couldn't get out when the car was moving'?

 

[Winterbells]

She is good our Cags.

Indeed.
