The inquiry has heard how text messages and a voicemail from an acquaintance of Valdo Calocane to him were seen and heard by police.
The man, known as Mr Monteiro, had spoken to Calocane via text, in Portuguese.
Sanders had recorded that those messages offered “nothing significant regarding the investigation” and showed they were “actions of a loner and a man evicted from a property who was looking or a place to stay”.
In a voicemail to Calocane, Mr Monteiro was heard trying to get in touch with him over concerns about Calocane taking his house key and getting “in trouble” with a neighbour.
In the voicemail, he said: “If this
turns into a police case bro, I’m going to hand you over. I won’t lie to you.
“I trusted
you at my home man, I trusted you at my home and you took my key and left with
it.”
Sanders admitted Mr Monteiro was never asked what the call was about.
