The police had deliberately withheld their clear number plate photo. It's not funny, sweet pea, Lynn responded. His voice had an edge to it. Shortly after, an outdoor surveillance camera captured Gregory Lynn removing the awning from his car. Despite the mounting evidence, investigators still lacked their smoking gun.

They had no bodies, no motive, and no direct evidence linking Lynn to Russell Hill or Carol Clay. On Monday November 22 2021, Lynn left for another solo camping trip. He had told friends he was heading to the Grampians, but instead he drove towards Wanangatta, the area where Russell and Carol had gone missing. A detective monitoring the bug in Lynn's car grew increasingly alarmed at what he heard.

Lynn spoke tearfully in the past tense about his wife being left with three children. His musings about mortality became more specific. A snake bite, he suggested, would be a good way to go. The combination of his armed state, remote destination, and increasingly dark thoughts forced the investigator's hands. A decision was made to intercept Lynn before he reached his destination.

Police deployed the Special Operations Group, or SOG. Victoria Police's elite tactical unit, the SOG was typically reserved for armed offenders or terrorism incidents. Deploying them for a missing persons arrest was unprecedented. But Lynn's situation warranted the risk. When the SOG stormed Lynn's camp with their guns drawn, they found him preparing dinner.

He calmly denied carrying weapons, though they found his forgotten Damascus knife in a sheath during the pat-down. Lin was arrested and driven a two and a half hour journey to the regional city of Sale for questioning. Lin was calm and relaxed during the drive, saying he didn't want a lawyer. He said he was looking forward to sorting the situation out, then returning to his camp.

But after a two-hour interview that night, during which he denied knowing anything about Russell Hill or Carol Clay, Lynn appeared to change his mind. He consulted a legal counsel by phone and the following morning he adopted their advice to respond no comment to any questions. The detectives pressed on, presenting maps and photos, questioning his vehicle's movements.

Lynn occasionally broke his silence, at one point accusing them of playing games, before returning to his refrain of no comment. When questioning turned to his trailer, Lynn's composure cracked. I can see where this is going, he said. Well, you think I've done it, and I haven't. Detectives continued to press Lynn, encouraging him that talking was in his best interest.

They reassured him that they didn't think he was a bad person, stating, It's not like you've gone out of the bush to kill anyone. But when somebody comes into your space, it's an invasion. You think I'd kill someone over a campsite? Lynn asked. No, but there's been some disagreement, one of the detectives suggested.
