Article title

I live down the road from Claremont and I've never heard it referred to as the Claremont Murders. Its always been the Claremont Serial Killer. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.59.187.214 (talk • contribs) .

I created the article, knowing of the crime, but living 2 states away. We get a filtered deal here I guess. What did the media call it before the second murder occured I wonder? :) I'm open to renaming. -- Longhair 07:13, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Prior to the second murder, it was still seen as a "missing persons" case. Anyone who was in WA at the time should remember the "Have You seen Sarah?" campaign - the posters were everywhere. One breakfast radio crew even thought they could make a joke of it (and were promptly ostracised). I seem to remember the term "Claremont Killings" being used at one point in time. But it's been the "Claremont Serial Killer" for most of the time, certainly for as long as the Macro Taskforce has been around. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.12.23.195 (talk) 12:56, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

To me it seems extremely ghoulish to post a link to a site called 'find a grave'. I wonder if the external links should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.183.136.194 (talk) 15:39, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

That was done by a disruptor and sock-puppeteer. The linkage was sloppily-done anyway and uninformative. I've deleted the section. Retarius | Talk 06:39, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Arrest and name

The name of the suspect may not be that hard to find, but for now, remember it's under a police/media blackout, and is not stated in any of the references provided in the December 2016 section of article. Wait until there is an official source, guys - it won't be long.
