the money could be for normal business dealings, but penny took the cash out 3 days before her murder. she was not herself the week leading up to her murder, and this is the same week she was worried about something, so i think the money is coonected.There's were four or five different teams of builders renovating Penny's home. On some days there were up to twenty workmen there.
Perhaps she didn't want to leave the £8,500 at her home with so many people there.
Otherwise why is she carrying so much money with her that day? She's due at work at 10.30am. Who is the money for?
A. The person she said she was meeting at 9.50am?
B. Someone she was meeting later at work or during her workday?
C. Someone she was meeting after work before she got back home?
D. Someone she planned to meet at a later date?
With options D, she would be carrying the money with her, rather than leaving it at home with so many people wandering about.
Also why didn't he switch them off after he had killed Penny?why did the perp allow penny to turn on the hazards and the windscreen wipers. the killer could switch them off from inside the vehicle. if she did put them on to get attention from people, then i doubt they were on very long, as he would warn her not to put them on again.
It's strange though that she allows her daughter and nanny to notice the cash.the money could be for normal business dealings, but penny took the cash out 3 days before her murder. she was not herself the week leading up to her murder, and this is the same week she was worried about something, so i think the money is coonected.
Or option 5 is that the money was used elsewhere and she didn't have it with her on the day she was killed.I guess option 4 is that she meets up with someone, gives them the money, but they kill her anyway.
Another possibility is that the killer wasn’t expecting to be paid off, but was intending to kill Penny.Or option 5 is that the money was used elsewhere and she didn't have it with her on the day she was killed.
Or that he wanted the money and she wouldn't give it to him. The equivalent of £20k today is a lot of cash and in all honesty we know next to nothing about it other than she drew it out and no one knows what happened to it. The money could be a complete red herring for all we know.Another possibility is that the killer wasn’t expecting to be paid off, but was intending to kill Penny.
The fact that she tried to pay him off made him very angry, he killed her and took the money anyway.
This IMO explains why he wound down the driver window and continued his attack.
I'd agree with that. I don't think it was a random robbery or assault. My gut feeling is that it was someone Penny knew. It appears the killer lost all control during the attack.It could well be, what is key IMO is the ferocity of the attack. It indicates pure hatred and again IMO is either linked to rejection or someone with a serious mental abnormality.
That's possible. The Crimewatch reconstruction shows her with the money on Tuesday when she gets home from work. So there's a window of opportunity from then until Thursday morning.Or option 5 is that the money was used elsewhere and she didn't have it with her on the day she was killed.
Which is why I've said before more context about what cash she usually drew, and where and when she tended to use it would be very useful. When she previously drew cash for example was it to last for a period of time or was it usually spent or used in one go.That's possible. The Crimewatch reconstruction shows her with the money on Tuesday when she gets home from work. So there's a window of opportunity from then until Thursday morning.
It's strange though that Penny draws the money out on Monday, but still has the cash in her handbag on Tuesday. She seems to have taken in to work and carried it around with her that day.
I suppose that would depend on what it had been used for. If it was for something "off the books" or something else that wasn't legal there may be good reason to not come forward. Or perhaps she used it in bits and pieces and it didn't all go to one person. The sighting of Penny possibly picking someone up is a bit similar. If it wasn't Penny or you were that person with nothing to hide why wouldn't you come forward?If Penny does give someone the cash on the Tuesday or Wednesday, then why doesn't that person ever come forward?
I have read before that she was used to handling large ( how large though?) amounts of cash but it does seem a bit odd to be quite so casual with it.That's possible. The Crimewatch reconstruction shows her with the money on Tuesday when she gets home from work. So there's a window of opportunity from then until Thursday morning.

the wipers were on when penny was found in her car, and i think she put them on as she was dying in a last attempt to get attention from someone. just as the killer was leaving the scene/car park.Also why didn't he switch them off after he had killed Penny?
He reached across the car and wound down Penny's window, then exited the vehicle and continued stabbing Penny through the open window.
He shuts the passenger door, yet leaves the wipers and hazard lights on.
The wipers/hazards might be an indicator that at least one of the witnesses is correct. Or could the witness have got that information from media reports or the reconstruction, and added it to his 'memory' of the event?
i thought the same. the money was from there joint account, so alistair would notice as soon as he seen the bank statements. if the money was for business, then why didnt micheal flynn her partner in the company know anything about it.It's strange though that she allows her daughter and nanny to notice the cash.
If the money is for something illegal then why isn't she more secretive with the cash? Why let other people notice it?
And does Alistair know about the cash withdrawal? I've never seen this confirmed in his interviews. IIRC he seems to give the impression that he didn't know about it though.
It was a joint bank account so presumably he would have noticed they were 8.5k down at some point in the near future. Although again in interviews IIRC he gives the impression that Penny dealt with all the finances etc.
but why if they have the money.I guess option 4 is that she meets up with someone, gives them the money, but they kill her anyway.
