I'm going to fly back to the room and I'll be back.

So he's sitting there, paid the bills.

She still hadn't come back.

He went to the room, knocked the door.

There was no reply.

And he didn't have a key.

So then he had to go, which was a fairly...

a track right to the hotel massive resort so he tracks up to the hotel reception and he tells reception and there's a bellboy there and the bell they said the bellboy walked down with him and opened the door so he walks back down with the bellboy the bellboy opens the door and he goes into the room and Michaela is floating in the bath and

Now he I think originally thought that maybe she had got into the bath and passed out because she had taken a period I think that morning and she was in she was in pain she was saying she was cramping.

He thought maybe she'd get into a warm bath or something and she passed out.

Hadn't realized she'd been murdered.

He lifts her out of the bath and tries to do some kind of CPR on her.

At this stage she'd probably been dead for quite some time.

The official line that the police were telling us at the time was that she had walked into the room, found this robbery going wrong.

They had killed her, they'd strangled her and they had placed her in the bath of water.

And...

To wash evidence off her.

And none of that, to me, made particular sense because to escalate a petty robbery to a murder was a strange thing to do.

Also, the room she was in was almost identical to the room I was staying in.

And so you come in through a door, through a corridor, but the whole back wall of the room was glass sliding doors.
