Poor child in suitcase

amalan11 — Sun, 19 Jul 2015 10:23:48 GMT

How sad is this case in which a suitcase has been found with the skeleton of a child 2-8 inside.It looks like it is a little girl as clothing has been found in the same suitcase...little dresses and such with animals and Dora the Explorer ect . According to the little forensics they have carried out so far the child died a very violent death.

How awful that a little child can meet a horrible end and is not even reported missing

Apparently a man about 60 was seen weeks ago carting a suitcase and police are now seeking him but many locals had seen the case and some had even gone through it but missed the skeletal remains

just so tragic the whole thing

Very sad.

Apparently narrowed to between 3-5 years old.

And you're right, very unusual to not match any current missing child.

They are pretty sure its not William Tyral from NSW but thats another one I have a feeling will not be good news if he is ever found . I just hope an answer is found for both cases and someone is caught and not out loose

That is just so upsetting, poor little girl, words fail me.

I saw that in the paper today, some poor little child thrown away like rubbish makes me sick and bloody sad.

It breaks my heart that nobody has come forward to identify this poor little mite. It is possible that the man the police are looking for was her father, but he/she must also have a mother somewhere and presumably other family - grandparents, uncles and aunts, maybe even siblings. How many people are complicit in hiding this hideous crime?

i honestly think there are more bodies to come. Easier to say a child's mother took off and left than hide the fact just a child disappear? If you get my meaning.

I also find it hard to believe people zooming past on a highway could stop go through the contents of the suitcase and not one saw the the little girl

Something about this does not add up and now witnesses are being re-questioned as the time lines dont match

It's possible that the man the witnesses saw has nothing to do with it. If so, one can only hope he coes forward - though of course he may not even realise he is the one they are loking for.

An update, the child could have been dead for up to 8 years.

Possibly an unwanted female child.

She was between 2 and 4 years old, not a new baby, so I doubt if she was murdered because she was the "wrong sex". My guess would be she died as a result of family abuse.

This is not directed at you, she ele, but I do think that some could take the time to read the news before they post...

This is a very upsetting and baffling case, and a little more sensitivity could be used by some instead of weighing in.

There are real people involved, after all.

That's my guess also she-el.

Poor little thing. Hard to believe people do these things.
RIP Baby girl.

The nearby town that the man was seen in is a tiny little outpost with perhaps ten dilapidated houses and as many residents. It is situated in the middle of an arid mallee scrub farming region on a reasonable sized, but isolated country highway that connects two population centres 150 km apart, so basically many kilometers from anywhere. Theres just nothing for out there. The man was also reported as seen walking several km. from the town. A neatly dressed gentleman carrying a suitcase out on that lonely road would be an unusual sight indeed. I,m not saying he must be connected with the child, but if he has heard media reports of the case he would know it was him police where looking for. It is all very sad and just a bit strange.

Poor little mite, it's hard to imagine how anyone could do this and that no-one has noticed that a little girl went missing from somewhere. I hope they get a break-through in the case soon.

Which could be the same thing.

A lot of detail there, Azure. Surely it will be recognised by someone.

Handmade, not retail, distinct fabrics and design, I certainly hope someone recognises it or it has a makers label and date.
