Time Travel Question 30: Murder and

Disappearance Edition III

Given that Roanoke and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things more mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart from a previous edition, but the evidence there is sketchier.

No, I'm not doing JFK. I refuse.

Please add new suggestions below, if you have them, for future consideration.

I have been trying to find something to do with this last few years. I’m still not sure, so here. The cases listed above are mostly unsolved; some of the cases have been partially solved, with at least one perpetrator being caught, or with a suspect being arrested but with enough doubt surrounding them that the case is considered open by the public.

The Smiley Face, Beer Man, Pusher, and Yorkshire Dipper “cases” are JUST THEORIES, and theories that are not encouraged or believed by the police and/or the families of the victims.

The Unsolved Bowraville Murders Get a New Chance

Collen Walker (16) vanished after going to a party in September 1990. Her clothes were found in April 1991, weighed down with rocks in a river, but to this day there’s no sign of her body. 

A month later, on October 4, Evelyn Greenup (4) disappeared too during the night, also after a party. Her family woke up to find her missing the next morning, and her body wasn’t discovered until six months later, in a bushland about 5 kilometers away from town.

The body of Clinton Speedy-Duroux (16) was also found in a bushland, two weeks after he went missing in February 1991. And, as you might have guessed, the last sighting of him was at a local party.

The three kids shared more than their tragic fates. At the time of their disappearance, they were all visiting relatives in the same neighborhood in Bowraville, Australia, and were part of the same aboriginal community. Their parties had been in the same area, known as The Mission. And both Clinton and Evelyn had died from blunt force trauma to the head.

The investigators concluded that the most likely suspect was Jay Hart, a white man, then 25 years old, who lived in Bowraville and was often seen in parties at The Mission. A witness claimed to have seen him following Colleen the night she went missing, and it was also revealed that Clinton had spent time with him the last day he was seen alive. In 1991, he was arrested and charged with the murders of Clinton and Evelyn (not Colleen, since her body hadn’t been found) but the case was circunstancial and a judge decided he should be tried separatedly for each crime, which meant the prosecution couldn’t use evidence of one case in the other. After he was acquitted for the murder of Clinton, they dropped the charges in Evelyn’s case and Hart was a free man. The families of the victims protested that the investigation had been inadequate and in 2016 the former Commissioner of Police of New South Wales apologized to them and agreed that they hadn’t done things properly.

In 2005, they tried again and took him to court for the murder of Evelyn. Hart was again acquitted.

Now, more than 25 years later after the unsolved murders, Jay Hart is once again facing justice. Thanks to a change in the law in 2006, a person can be retried for a crime if there’s “fresh and compelling evidence” for it. A hearing has been set for November 28, 2017, so the prosecution can present their case for a retrial.

The Bowraville murders: the crimes that still haunt detective Gary Jubelin | 60 Minutes Australia

The Bowraville Murders

In the early 90s, three children went missing from the same street over the course of four months. If it had happened in Sydney, we’d never hear the end of it, but because the kids were Indigenous, and lived in Bowraville, one of the state’s poorest towns, barely anyone has heard of the case. More than twenty years later, the white man responsible for the children’s murders has never been convicted. This week we look into the Bowraville murders, to try and figure out exactly why justice has never been granted to the families of Colleen Walker, Evelyn Greenup and Clinton Speedy-Duroux.

On September 13, 1990, sixteen-year-old Colleen Walker went missing from The Mission, the Aboriginal part of the town of Bowraville in New South Wales. A month later, four-year-old Evelyn Greenup went missing from the same street. Four months after that, sixteen-year-old Clinton Speedy-Duroux went missing as well.

Rather than assume a serial killer was on the loose, Bowraville police were apathetic, telling the families of the missing children that their kids had probably gone “walkabout”.

When the bones of two of the children were found in the same stretch of forest, seven kilometres away from the town, it was clear that foul play was involved. What followed was a slapdash homicide investigation by inexperienced detectives, the creation of a task force, two trials, multiple inquiries and attempted government intervention – and a killer still walking free.

Our main source this week was the government inquiry, released in 2014. Be warned, she’s a chunky read https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/lcdocs/inquiries/2131/Bowraville%20-%20Final%20report.pdf

These are the submissions presented to the inquiry from the victims’ families. You may cry. https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/lcdocs/other/7740/2%20May%202014%20Redacted%20transcript.pdf
