I listened to that, as difficult as it was (commercial radio really is worse than ever) and I’m sceptical too. Could one really remember for sure a face from decades later?


But I still don’t see why Claremont would necessarily be BRE’s sole field of operations. After all, it’s likely that he stopped operating in Claremont because he had no other choice. After the third disappearance, Claremont was heavily monitored and the movements of everyone was scrutinised (hence why someone like the unfortunate LW became a suspect). It would have been very difficult to get away with abductions as he was doing previously. I don’t think that the specific area of Claremont was as important to BRE as the crimes. It is very plausible that he simply carried on elsewhere. There are unsolved murders and disappearances of women in Perth after the CSK incidents.


Serial killers generally don’t cease their crimes voluntarily. Well, some of them do, but most don’t. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day we find out that BRE is being investigated for other serious crimes, either prior to or (more likely) subsequent to the Claremont murders.


And I think his MO would be flexible given that he has already displayed a willingness to adapt. He went from house break-ins where he was nearly caught to vehicle abductions. And when there was too much heat in one area, it is plausible that he continued his activities in different locations.


Another reason that I think his MO would be flexible is precisely because of the incident at the hospital. It was so reckless that it showed an inability to control himself. He was probably getting frequent urges to strike.


But with all that said, I have no reason to believe the voice from that radio show.
