S2E78: Pre-Murder Fibres No Match to Post-Murder Fibres

**BREAKING: We’ve received a last-minute email from the WA court, there will be no Claremont Trial tomorrow (Friday April 24), court will resume on Tuesday, after the Anzac Day long weekend*** Fibres from anywhere and everywhere the victims went, alive and dead were tested by Chem Centre to try and find any matches to the critical fibres. There was a huge amount of detail put into the testing - Fibres from the carpet of the Continental Hotel, Jane Rimmer’s hairbrush, Ciara Glennon’s hairbrush. Socks, a toy rabbit, a ribbon from a diary and the carpet from Ciara’s room. Her car and Una Glennon’s sewing machine. Even the zipper lining from the inside of the body bag Ciara Glennon was placed on. A huge level of detail. What they found was none of the fibres from around Jane and Ciara’s lives - before they disappeared - matched the critical fibres. But 98 fibres found on their bodies after their murders match Telstra shorts and the car Bradley Edwards drove in the 90s. The full 98 fibres have now been discussed in court, but that’s not the end of the evidence from Rees Powell, he’ll be cross examined on Tuesday. Join Natalie Bonjolo, Tim Clarke and Emily Moulton as they discuss day 78 of WA’s trial of the century. The West Australian has also released a two-part video series, as Tim Clarke takes you through the areas which are key to the trial, from Claremont, where the women went missing, to Hollywood hospital and to the sites were Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon’s bodies were found.
