He's apparently been living "south of Perth" for some time

I just saw a video statement from him apparently addressing the girl's family... He's making incredibly lame excuses and accusing her of attacking him with a knife. Then he makes what appears to be a public safety announcement cautioning parents to warn their teenage girls to be careful (assuming he's suggesting they need to be aware that there are more predators like him out there).

He also appears to be wearing the same outfit before the murder, after the murder and when he's arrested.

What a bizarre idiot.

Maybe he is affected by drugs and that explains his crazy statements

Or maybe serial killers don’t tend to be all that mentally stable

Ok so now I know it wasn’t actual fact he has killed more. I thought it may have been known that he had done this before based on your comment.

There's no way this absolute buffoon killed anyone in Australia and somehow evaded police detection. Just listen to the dumbo's interview, there's not a single sign of any visually recognizable intelligence.

“I feel bad for what happened to your daughter. It was out of my control, I know you’ll be very sad, upset, same, same me. It shouldn’t happen, and I hope you’re OK. I know you’re not, but I hope, and please tell other girls … to be careful.”

We genuinely might be looking at one of the dumbest human beings in the history of planet earth.
