I dont know, I think its strange now this guy comes forward, and announces to the world, he shot the dingo, after all the media coverage this story had.
Why didnt he come forward when The Chamberlains went to trial, I will never know :(

Former Uluru police officer unconvinced by Azaria claims
The senior police officer who was stationed at Uluru when Azaria Chamberlain disappeared says he is not convinced by the latest claims relating to the case.
The former Northern Territory Police Officer Frank Morris says he watched a national television program last night featuring Melbourne pensioner Frank Cole's story.
Mr Cole claims he shot a dingo at the time Azaria disappeared in 1980 and found a dead baby in its mouth .
Mr Morris says he has been re-examining his journal and photos since the latest claims came to light and Mr Cole's statements are inconsistent with his records.
"Even just the initial statement that they panicked when the car came along," he said.
"Where the clothes were found, no car lights would ever have found them in there, they were almost at the base of the rock and a place that in the night time you just wouldn't find, you wouldn't even know it was there.
"He also said that they started digging a hole to bury the clothes and they were disturbed by a car, well there was no area were anyone had been trying to dig."
