New claims about William Tyrrell 'person of interest'

简介：

A months‑long investigation into former person of interest William Tyrrell has uncovered shocking new claims. Frank Abbott, currently in prison for child sex offences, is alleged to have sexually assaulted other young victims. A former neighbour said he’d heard Abbott took young girls and boys out to the forest, tied them to trees, and did something bad. Others described him as a dirty, stinky man with long hair living in a feral house with rotting walls and floorboards, backyard full of junk. The inquest investigating William’s disappearance heard other claims about Abbott, including that he boasted about having killed the three‑year‑old and burying him in a suitcase. However, he was never questioned at the inquest. Abbott has not responded to written questions and has privately denied any role. A series of recorded prison phone calls suggest police considered his potential involvement. In these recordings, which were tendered to the inquest, Abbott can be heard saying the police think he might have done this one.
