The car of a paedophile has been seized by police as they continue investigating the case of missing NSW toddler William Tyrell.
The white station wagon belonging to Tony Jones, a person of interest for police, was taken on September 16 and is undergoing forensic examination.
Jones was sentenced to three years jail on Friday after he pleaded guilty to indecently assaulting a minor, reports News Corp.
William disappeared from the backyard of his grandmother's home in Kendall on the NSW mid-north coast on the morning of September 12 last year.
A former neighbour of Bill Spedding, another person of interest for the police, Jones was a member of the social group, Grandparents As Parents Again (GAPA) which police allege concealed a paedophile ring.
This comes after police began investigations on finding the drivers of cars spotted on the street on the day of William's disappearance.
The mother had seen two cars suspiciously parked on the side of the road that morning, close together with their windows wound down, which have raised suspicion.
The cars were described as a speeding white four-wheel-drive, and a dark grey older-style, medium sized sedan, and an old, white station wagon.
Earlier this month, thousands of Australians across the country came togethe tomark one year to the day since William vanished without trace.
More than 250 walks were registered around the country, in a touching reflection of the outpouring of love and concern for the plight of the missing boy.
Swarms of red and blue outfits, honouring the Spiderman outfit that William was famously wearing when he disappeared, were pictured walking in unity across major ports in every city and state.
Communities from Ipswich in Queensland to Burleigh Beach in Newcastle to the Melbourne CBD to the Sydney Harbour to Rockingham in Perth represented just a fraction of the widespread support.
News even reached rural communities in Darwin and regional Western Australia, while walks went ahead overseas in locations like Thailand and the Solomon Islands.
On the national 'Walk 4 William' Facebook page, it says the idea 'was created from the hearts of many who wanted to bring a voice and awareness to little Williams disappearance in the hope that this will help bring little William home.'
The slogan behind the national campaign across the past year has been: 'Somebody saw something. Somebody knows something. Somebody can help bring William home. Is that somebody you?'
William Tyrrell would have turned four on June 26, and parents still have hope that he could be found alive.
The 'Walk 4 Williams' event comes after William’s parents made a plea to the public on 60 Minutes to help find their boy.
William had been roaring like a tiger that morning in his Spiderman costume, which is why his mouth is open in the now famous image of him, when he walked around the side of the home at about 10.30am.
'I could still hear him, he was roaring, and then, um, nothing,' his mother said in the interview, her voice breaking.'
'And then it's silence and he's just vanished.'
'I couldn't see him, I couldn't hear him. The world just came to a screaming halt. 'There was no wind, there were no birds, there was no movement. There was nothing.'
Police also released the audio of the the 000 call, as they continue to investigate all avenues of the disappearance, focusing on the identification of several vehicles parked near the house.
The desperate plea comes just days after Bill Spedding, posted a video online denying any involvement in the toddler’s disappearance.
The video of Spedding appeared in an online support group for the 63-year-old on Wednesday, almost a year after three-year-old William vanished from his grandmother's home in Kendall, on the NSW mid-north-coast.
Spedding, seen in the grainy footage wearing a blue t-shirt, admits to visiting the Tyrrell home to repair a washing machine but claims to have had 'no involvement' in the boy’s disappearance.
'My wife Margaret and I offer the Tyrrell family our sincere commiserations in the tragic event of William's disappearance,' he said.
'I wish to state that I have no involvement in the disappearance of William Tyrrell.'
He claims the media have 'inaccurately' portrayed his involvement in the Tyrrell case and he wishes to 'clarify those details' with his video statement.
'The media have reported that I was supposed to have attended the Tyrrell house on the 12th September 2014 - this being the day of William's disappearance.
'I wish to make it perfectly clear this claim is completely false.'
Spedding was arrested and charged with unrelated historic child sex offences in April this year.
The offences were uncovered by detectives investigating William Tyrrell's disappearance.
