Yesh he's a son of a former professional Australian rules footballer, they used the Cell tower information to narrow him down and was tracking his behaviour and movements for a number of weeks before they were confident enough to arrest him. Would be interesting if you re-reviewed this in a year's time when you have a bit more public information. This probably demonstrates with the amount of surveillance that exists now with cameras and cell phone tower pings, if you want to get away with a major crime you really need to be off the grid and plan very well.

I live in country NSW and I can tell you that I would NEVER run in the bush, even on the tracks, without a personal locator beacon. You might safely run through the bush, 100 times but on run 101 you find yourself in trouble and every second counts. Do I know what happened to Samantha, no I don't, but with no blood evidence or physical evidence, at least that DISCLOSED to the public, Ive only discounted discounted the local kangaroo mobs in that area. I concur with Dr G that the Police have additional information which they won't share until they're good and ready to do so and I fear that this much loved wife and mother is no longer living. As of now I am sending my condolences to her entire family who are living through a situation that I pray never to be in! Thank you Dr G for your analysis.

I used to run around my neighborhood a lot, until a creepy couple (man/woman in a shabby car) pretty much blocked me and tried to get me to step in closer to ask where there is a restaurant around here. I backed away, shouted to go up that street to broadway and use their phones to find a restaurant I ran towards a random house as if it was mine and I could have judged the situation incorrectly, yet they knew they were in an affluent neighborhood / no restaurants, strip malls, or restaurants anywhere. All of a sudden they're hungry and both of them need My help ? My instincts told me it wasn't smelling right They could have just been out on a Sunday drive and gotten lost, yet better safe than sorry.

I get it, because a lot of our parents read books to us while growing up during raising us. On the other hand, there's nothing soothing about these cases and I can literally only watch so many in a single day. Sometimes I don't even watch true crime for a week at a time. On the other hand, I can also acknowledge that most people these days are so desensitized to horrific things that this type of things actually becomes soothing and it's actually fairly alarming. I would suggest you not watch true crime for a long time or read, watching, nor entertain yourself with awful things for a long time and you can successfully train your brain to be sensitive again.

Just some context. Describing the running route as a 'trail' may be misleading. This area is criss-crossed with graded dirt/gravel roads and rougher roads more like fire tracks. Most of the area is accessible by ordinary cars and abduction by an an assailant(s) with a vehicle is a possibility. The area of the disappearance is within a 10 minutes drive of a regional town of over 100,000 people so its not the remote outback.

I used to take 1 hour walks with my sister down uninhabited roads surrounded by bushlands with my sister in Airlie Beach, Queensland. Quite often she even she went walking on her own. We didn't think about it back then, but we were probably putting ourselves at risk every time we went, which was almost daily. Airlie Beach seemed like a small friendly town back in the 90's, but so did many other small towns where bad things happened. There is a degree of danger in every country that you go to and Australia is no exception. I think she's met with foul play and more than likely someone who knew her. I would never go walking/hiking alone in isolated areas anymore. It sucks but that's the world we live in now. Thanks Dr Grande.

Excellent analysis yet again. We might never find out what happened to Samantha but from or massive experiences here in Australia most people died from convicts released on bail. They get released to claim another victim or a group of them like Jill Meagher case or the case when the convict who was on bail ran over pedestrians in Melbourne CBD - which I witnessed myself during lunchtime. We had numerous cases like this. There's something terribly wrong with our justice system in Oz.

I live in Australia myself in Tasmania ( Australia consists of 2 Islands ) This happened on the mainland as you said in Victoria. The area is pock marked with mine shafts as it was/is a Goldfields area. Your last 2 minutes of this are so accurate and mirror what I am thinking. The Dog has disappeared as well at the same time. Samantha was superbly fit and could easily have distanced an average person .She knew the area well .I think the police know a LOT more than they are revealing but gathering that evidence and even putting together a prosecution takes time.The public are far too obsessed with an immediate answer and it doesn't work that way. I am surprised that they didn't call in an Aboriginal Tracker.These people read footprints like you and I read the newspaper. If a woman was assaulted before it's reasonable to suspect that is a possibility no one can discount. Some weirdo like Paul Denyer aka the Mornington Monster. Murdered and then thrown down a mine shaft and then maybe a shot Kangaroo carcass thrown on top of her. Simone Quinlan was shot and thrown down a mine shaft.Her body discovered in 3 pieces. She could have staged her own disappearance also. Police are widening their look at the phones that pinged the tower's at that time too. I think we are on a cusp of revelation but when it will come is anyone's guess.

Dr. Grande, another general comment from me. Every judge should be like you, every attorney should be like you, every police officer should be like you, every detective should think like you, and every case should have you as a juror! I rarely admire someone’s intelligence in their way of thinking bc my standards are high…but I think you are a brilliant man. And the sense of humor is part of your intelligence. The kangaroo with the cell phone had me dying! No wonder you love the movie Airplane and it’s one of my favorite comedies that I quote all the time!

Mobile phone data from the area was scrutinised which led investigators to identify the suspect. As yet it is believed to be a targeted attack, however more details will come to light as the murder investigation continues. RIP Samantha. Very sad and tragic loss of life.

Yesterday here, a 22 yr old male was arrested and charged with her murder, which they allege occurred on the day she disappeared. We all hoped for a miracle, which really was so unrealistic. I personally would never run or walk alone in an area like that. Women are not safe anywhere, and while Australia is a relatively safe country, you need to always be situationally aware of your surroundings. Being so familiar with an area makes you too comfortable and relaxed, instead of even watching for any unusual bird movement which can indicate that someone is lurking. I feel so sad for her family losing their mum. At least they know and that the alleged perpetrator has been arrested. Peace and love to you Samantha, so many hearts are with your family and friends.

I live approximately 90 mins away from where Samantha went missing so this has been on my mind especially as a woman the same age. I had been thinking it was probably a random attack from a stranger but after watching your video I am really starting to think it was planned by someone she knew who wanted her gone. All the other theories don’t really make sense as somebody had to disable her technology quickly and ensure there was no evidence left for anyone to find. Like you said that would be pretty hard in the case of an accident or random attack.

Some areas are unsafe for anyone to run in alone. By the way, police often withhold key evidence in cases like this because there are lunatics that will confess to a crime that they didn't do, for attention seeking purposes and keeping key evidence secret helps to week out the lunatics.
