There was a good deal he claimed that he could not remember. However regarding Mia he said, "Obviously it was fresh in my mind when I gave my statement." This stands in opposition to a major plank in the prosecution's case.
Excellent, it is so refreshing to finally have that full acceptance that the dog was only and ever up against the wall, pulling to it, taken its master to it, directly to the V break from the east, after going to the Gino break as well of course.
Luke Mitchell was simply mistaken. "They" had not been some distance past, he had not returned to any break to enter the woods, his map was wrong, it was not them on the path with the victim directly over that wall. None of it happened. He entered that woodland exactly as was said by the others, we know they were always telling the truth, adopted the same truth at the trial.
So we have erased everything from Mitchell, we only and will always just have ' dog and wall' at the V break. So he climbs over that wall, he all but does not move, he has no view point, he has no idea the victims body is 43ft west of where he is, the dog had not alerted him to it, remember, no dog, no him, no they past that break in the wall, no only LM returning with dog to greet AW, none of that happened, only and always directly to the V break and over the wall.
So he is standing over that wall - Clearly just looking around him for those brief seconds, wondering to himself, what was Mia alerting to here? There is nothing here, It has to be something directly to the back of that V break, I mean not several feet in North. Not NE slightly a few feet. Then his magic torch picks up something, sees through greenery, overgrowth, and right through that "large oak tree" 40ft away. When he briefly changed directions as to where he was looking to see what Mia was alerting to from over 43ft away. Turned that torch W and bingo, what a torch that was.
So yes Chris, you are correct, We are still at this dog and wall fiasco. Bent and twisted, manipulated to hell and back, full circle, to having to say that everything that Luke Mitchell said was wrong. He was mistaken, it is only about the dog being up against that wall at the V break.
