Nicholas,
What appears to be the case is a suggestion in the book that this witness informed Police. Sandra only managed to find out about this after gaining access to the case papers. Again, it would appear that nothing was ever done about this identification, which according to Sandra is similar to the treatment of other potential witnesses.
The revealing part was when the witness described the person, who they claimed was Stocky Man, as being a member of Jodi’s family. This family member supposedly never left the house that day, which when one looks at what Sandra has included in her book suggests this person is her brother [Name removed]. This person never had much in the form of an alibi, which off the top of my head was Jodi’s mother who said he very rarely left the house. He always received transport, assuming due to his illness, and was supposedly at home on the day she was murdered.
However, there was a period of time that went unaccounted for around five or six o’clock where this person may have been out the house. Other statements appear to contradict the alibi of his mother.
Corrine said the person following closely behind Jodi was Stocky Man.
She said this person also confessed.
Sandra never revealed the name, but said in a previous YouTube comment on one of the podcasts that the person who confessed was very well known to Jodi.
A witness said this person was a member of Jodi’s family.
When you join the dots and then look a little bit closer at this individual, their background, their character, their age, their mental status, their overall behaviour and the fact a sexual crime was not confirmed when her body was found, it is highly possible that this particular individual may well be the killer.
Thats if we are to believe that a confession has been made at all, and that we join the “Mitchell is Innocent” camp.
It’s not very difficult to come to this conclusion once you read the chapter on this person in her book. It’s just a theory, but I suspect it is quite an accurate one.
