Seems that a few people are starting to come forward now, which is awesome. At first the husband was looking a bit sketchy, as a few of his details were out of whack with facts, but i think he might be in the clear now. Im hoping that more people from the camera footage speak up so either she is found or the family can gain closure.

It’s horrible and it’s sad that she might be gone now. This can happen to any one at any time of the night or day. I used to walk an hour to get home after a big night or just out.

Sick of news stations trying to get a scoop and sending out false headlines.

A mate is friends with the couple and i can only imagine how they are feeling seeing these headlines come out only to find out they arent true…

Can’t even begin to imagine what the husband, family and her poor co-worker who offered to walk her home are going through right now.


It’s not looking good.  downer

Because the media has cained this story over the last week (it’s been the top story on news.com.au all week) how is anyone that gets arrested or charged going to get a fair trial? Now I don’t understand the legal system other than what I’ve seen in the movies but I’d assume that we have trails with jurors here. With it all over the media how do they find any people that aren’t going to be biased because of the coverage. I mean even tonight there is news reports of a guy getting charged before he has been? Now if he is the guy, then for her family I hope he rots in jail…but unless its a watertight case won’t it be hard to prove because there has been a media witchhunt just to find the bad guy? Won’t it hamper the police case?

RIP Jill

Such a shocking shocking crime

I have frequently walked those distances on my own late at night.

Dark i know people like to be disgusted at the media but they also played a MAJOR part in this guy being caught and charged (circulating the CCTV and pleading for the public to come forward with info). But yes the fair trail thing is a point.

Although I would go into most situation like this with my mind on guilty not innocent whether I had heard media reports or not. But I doubt this guy is going to plead innocent, he lead police to her grave - not sure how he could plead innocent after doing that.
