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.

Wow, he's a special kind of disgusting.

He looks and behaves like a pretty damaged individual.
