During a brief easing of lockdown restrictions on Wednesday May 13 2020, he returned to Union Spur Track to check on the remains. After 54 days, the bodies remained untouched but were badly decomposed. Surprisingly, no animals had interfered. Lynn added more sticks and rocks before leaving. Even though Lynn hadn't been under surveillance then, he became increasingly paranoid.

When the president of one of his clubs and a previously dismissive manager suddenly took an interest in his camping habits, he became suspicious. Then the police approached him at home and Lynn decided he needed to act. He waited through winter, knowing Russell and Carol's bodies would remain undetected due to the snow-blocked roads.

When restrictions finally eased, he again returned to Union Spur Track at sunset on Wednesday November 18 2020. Nine months had passed since the killings. Russell and Carol's bodies remained where Lynn had dumped them, though they had now been ravaged by wild dogs. Lin described dousing the remains with two litres of kerosene, then setting them alight.

He sat beside the makeshift pyre through the night, feeding the flames. At times, he became sick from the experience. At dawn, he crushed the brittle bones to powder, pulverising the fragments until the largest particles left were no more than two centimetres. He scattered them before retreating to a state forest campsite south of Walhalla to recover.

The detectives found much of Lynn's story implausible. Russell Hill had been an elderly man who hadn't owned a firearm in 20 years. How could he have loaded a shotgun while walking barefoot in the darkness?

That Russell had accidentally shot Carol directly in the head while wrestling with Lynn seemed equally unlikely, as did the odds of Russell landing perfectly on his own knife during a second attack. While Lynn had been in custody, police had searched his home in Caroline Springs. Beyond camping gear, hunting licenses, and a toll tag, they found an impressive weapons collection.
