He Was Wearing Geoff’s Boots
Not only did he fit the description of the scraggly man to a tee, he was even wearing Geoff’s hiking boots, as well as carrying his green backpack. Plus the backpack still held some of Geoff’s things, which included ‘a book, a watch, and a sleeping bag.’ And given that these were the only missing items from the crime scene, police were confident that they had their man.
