Chris and o sung wo, I have a weird story for you.
My childhood was in a few railway side towns, dad was a fettler.
Mum born in Bargo, dad in Bowral.
At about age 9 dad was driveing past Belagello state forest.
He told mum and us this tale.
Years before, even before my birth, he said a man had killed and buried his wife and kids there.

Think dad said the family was from Sutton Forrest.
Strange how life goes, I worked on a project DMR/RTA that Ivan Milat worked on.
After [police informed and have investigated] a body was found on a fire trail nearby.
Had schooling, just a short time at Bargo, unsure if they lived their then.
I know much of what you two speak of, not in the depths but read a lot and have had a few mates who as you would say are in the job.
May have to reopen Berrima to house the NSW FILTH after the Royal Commission, gee I hope if so it stays open for a long time.

Hi there BELLY ol' man...

I had no idea they closed down Berrima Gaol BELLY ? I was aware it held those on protection, including ex coppers too of course. It was a very historical place by all accounts, being one of NSW's oldest Prisons I think, next to Parramatta and Darlinghurst, the latter being closed many many years ago now ?

To your comments apropos Belangello Forest, and Ivan Milat. Chris would be far better acquainted with the facts touching on the activities of Milat than I, BELLY ? Having driven past the area on many occasions, it would not surprise me in the least, the number of secrets that particular part of the State would 'give up' if ever thoroughly and scientifically searched ?

Hi o sung wo & Belly,
As we would say to the magistrate or Judge, "May I refresh from my notes". I will post a few thoughts tomorrow when I gather my thoughts. I can tell you that because of budget constraints we were told NOT to find any more bodies in Belanglo or to investigate possible bodies in the forests around Galston Gorge beyond Hornsby in Sydney. I used to get Roger Rogeston and Rex Jackson out of Berrima for weekend leave.
The network still operated back then. Talk more tomorrow.

Hi there CHRIS & BELLY...

"...If your worship pleases, my memory is exhausted, may I refer to my notes...' ? Today, I'd need to refer to the entire damn Brief, my memory is no longer exhausted, it's gone completely ?

Speak with you both on the next Topic ? Until then, thanks a lot for your very informative contributions, I really appreciate your collective input(s).
