Did Alan Ovens know Jodi and had they arranged to meet? Pat Brown suggests Luke tied up Jodi and killed her from behind, hence very little blood spatter on his clothing.
You are getting into the more complicated questions now Steve,the killing of Jodi is beyond my understanding.OK,lets try and make some sense of it.Jodi was found tied up,but why and when was she tied up? Pat suggests that Jodi undressed voluntarily for a bit of fun with Luke,ok,I can buy that,makes sense.But did she let Luke tie her up at this stage too? And if so,what happened next? We know that Jodi was severely beaten to start with and she was hit on the back of the head,so when did the knife attack start and why did she have defensive wounds on her arm if she was bound ?
And when did the knife attack start,after the beating had finished? And remember Jodi had lost a lot of blood from other wounds before her throat was cut,she had many cuts to the face including her mouth/throat and one arm wound cut through to the bone causing severe blood loss.
It is unlikely that any of these cuts could have been inflicted from behind Steve,no?
And remember her throat was cut several times Steve,not just once.All from behind? Seems odd.
Besides,his arm at least would have been covered in blood surely?
If you read the police scenarios,I dont think anyone can decide if Jodi was stripped naked before or after she was killed or when she was tied up.But it seems a pointless exercise tying someone up once they are dead,dont you think Steve? Or indeed in the middle of the assault,and how did the defensive wounds to the arms come about if Jodi was tied up before the killer started slashing with the knife?
Cant work it out.
Anyway,yes,as far as I know Alan Ovens knew that Jodi left to meet Luke.Although as you know it is claimed that he told Luke'THEY have left'.
Anyway,I would still like to know where and when you think Luke cleaned up after the murder and when he told his mother what he had done?
