MAKES YOU THINK......

These are witness statements from 2 workers who were working together at the house beside the Singh home.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr Hurley`s statement:

Renderer Troy Edmond Hurley told the court he was working at a house next to the Singh's home on April 22, 2003, when he saw a car pull up and a man get out and spend "10 to 15 minutes" around the front of the house.

At that time he had not seen any children with the man but he had only glanced over his shoulder.

Mr Hurley said he later saw the man with two children, a boy and a girl, on the driveway and they went around the side of the house. The man had tried two doors at the back of the house.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr Moore`s statement:

Mr Di Carlo asked Mr Moore if he saw the man and the children knock on the front door and then walk up the back of the garage and look around.

"No, the man went up the driveway and to the back of the house," Mr Moore said.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

These two men were working at the same house on that day, each man has a different version of what they saw and heard on the day. Which version do you think the police were more in favour of?

Witness statements from people who lived close to the Singh house at the time of their deaths.

She told the court she had been away for the Easter weekend and returned home at about lunchtime on the Monday.

In the afternoon she had a barbecue for some friends and about 7.30 or 8.30 they heard what sounded like two gunshots or two cracks of a whip.

"Did you also hear a blood curdling scream?" Mr Di Carlo asked.

Ms Bliss replied that she had and it seemed to be a female.

She told Mr Di Carlo she had not called police but later spoke with them after an unusual incident while she was walking with a friend.

Ms Bliss said she was walking on a bike path at about 5.30am when she saw a man dressed in work clothes.

The man looked at them and ran off before jumping a fence.

Ms Bliss told Mr Di Carlo she was shown a photo board but had not recognised anyone and had also helped police with a comfit photograph.

Julie Anne Hicks and her then boyfriend Gary Paul Ball went to a barbecue at Ms Bliss and her husband Jeffrey Bliss's home at Grey Gum Close.

Ms Hicks said it had been very quiet and dark and she assumed most people were still away for Easter.

She told Mr Di Carlo she heard what she thought was a whip crack but after talking with the others they decided it was a gunshot.

Ms Hicks said she also recalled hearing a loud scream.

"I have described it as blood curdling. It made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I thought it was female and it seemed to go on for about 10 seconds," she added.

Ms Hicks told Mr Di Carlo that at the time it had terrified her and she had expected to hear sirens but she didn't.

"We didn't know where it came from ......we had no sense of direction," she said.

Ms Hicks said she could put the time as being dark but before 8.30pm when she had gone inside to watch a television show.

Mr Ball told Mr Di Carlo he went to the Hendra police station the next day because he had concerns about some noises he heard.

He said between 8pm and 8.30pm he heard two to three short sharp shots.

"In between (the shots) I heard a scream......I had no idea where it came from," he said.

Alicia Gwyneth Frances was the fourth witness to tell of hearing a scream in the area of the Singh family home on the night of April 21-22, 2003, but she placed it at a later time than evidence given by three others.

The court has heard police believe Neelma Singh, 24, Kunal Singh, 18, and Sidhi Singh, 12, were murdered at their Bridgeman Downs, in Brisbane's north, late on April 20 or early on April 21, 2003.

The Crown today called Mrs Frances for cross examination by barrister Sam Di Carlo, for Sica, on what she heard early on Tuesday, April 22, 2003.

Mrs Frances told the court she was asleep in her home in Knightsbridge Place, Bridgeman Down, which had a view of the Singhs' home in Grass Tree Close.

She told Mr Di Carlo she remembered being awoken by a screaming sound she believed was coming from the direction of Grass Tree Close.

"I opened my eyes and woke up....I physically got up and to look at the alarm clock," Mrs Frances said, explaining the clock was on her husband's side of the bed.

She said it was either 12.20 or 12.28 because she was not wearing her glasses and had trouble telling the difference between the "8" and the "0".

"So there was no guessing about the time," Mr Di Carlo said.

"Absolutely no," Mrs Frances replied.

Mr Di Carlo asked Mrs Frances if what she had heard could be described as "guttural".

"I believe I heard a scream. I thought it was blood curdling.......I felt it was a female," Mrs Frances said.

She said she went to the back of her house and stood there for 10 to 15 minutes while her husband had gone downstairs to check.

In re-examination, prosecutor Brendan Campbell asked if while she was standing in the backroom Mrs Frances heard anything else.

She said the initial noise sounded like it was carried on the wind but she also heard some other noise near the house.

Mr Campbell also asked how she was certain what day she heard the noises.

"I am going on what I said to police at that initial time. I am using that information and I know it happened at that time, it was Easter, it was that period of time," she replied.

The court had earlier heard evidence from three witnesses who were at a barbecue in a house near Grass Tree Close on April 21 and they heard a scream at about 8.30 that night

Paramedics, Peter Billin and Ryan Reddy told the court they were called to Grass Tree Close where they had been told there were three bodies.

Mr Billin told the court he could see a woman and a younger girl in the spa and he had tried to find any signs of life in either body.

He said he could find no signs of life and both had signs of rigor mortis.

Mr Reddy said he saw two bodies in the bath and another apparently submerged except for a foot protruding.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Above you can read that Mr Reddy saw the foot of a third body in the spa bath when he arrived at the scene of the crime that day. Below is the statement of Officer Green and what HE SAID, HE SAW, when he arrived at the scene of the crime that day

Senior Constable Green said he saw only two bodies submerged in the murky water of the spa, which had been left running, upon first walking into the ensuite.

He said there was bedding dumped on the bathroom floor, which was wet where the spa had overflowed.

Some of the bedding had been placed in the spa with the bodies and at least two black pillows were partially submerged in the water, he said.

Senior Constable Green said he discovered the third body - being Kunal's - in the water only after returning to the ensuite a second time and moving a black pillow resting on the edge of the spa and then "leaning right over" the foot of the bath.

"At that stage I could see past the female body and see another set of legs wedged under her," he said.

Senior Constable Green said he could not see a male foot protruding from the spa, or a male knee visible beneath the water, upon his initial observation of the scene.

"I remember them being wedged further down," he said.

But he conceded parts of the third body were visible at the time after being shown crime scene photographs when cross-examined by Mr Sica's defence barrister Sam Di Carlo.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I am not trying to prove anything here, but sometimes it just boggles the mind how there can be different versions by different people of the same event.

Like i have stated before on this blog, the police only alledge that the crimes were committed late Sunday very early Monday because Max Sica was in his bed sleeping at that time, thus to them he had no tangiable alibi.

The coroner cannot establish time of death because of factors involved in the crime itself. He cannot really even establish the exact murder weapons used to kill them for there was more than one.

Think about it yourselves and truly see what all the evidence and facts are truly saying about this case.
