Australia knows that BS is a POI.

I am not sure how the historical charges came to light, some say because Jubelin was involved in the investigation all these years ago.

I also read that one of the victims, now grown up, made allegations against him and subsequently filed a police report. The validity of this is unknown to me. It might be idle gossip?

Was it pure coincidence that a report of molestation was filed against him by one of his victims at the same time William disappeared?

Was his current wife ever aware of these historical charges that happened back in the 80's?

Whatever the case may be, BS and his wife had 3 boys in their care. From what I understand, these boys are the children of MS's son, and the daughter in law.

Let's say MS was not aware of these historical charges against BS and only became aware of it when charges were recently made against BS. She would have been enraged knowing that her husband did these things to young children. And to top it, she must have furious that her grandchildren were taken away from her because of his actions.

It is alleged that BS went to a cafe with his wife the morning of William's disappearance. An acquaintance of BS downloaded a receipt from his bank account to show that he paid with a card for their refreshments.

Afterwards, it is alleged that BS went to the school for a award presentation for one of the boys in their care.

He offered the cafe and the school as his alibi for the day.

However, some suggest that it could have been only the wife that went to the cafe and the school alone, and merely used his card to pay for the refreshments creating the illusion that BS was also there.

If MS was not aware of his historical charges that caused her grandchildren to be taken away from them, would she not be outraged and do anything in her power to get them back? To do that, she would have said that she went to the cafe alone, paid with his card, and then went to the school alone. His alibi will be in tatters. By distancing herself from BS, she might be able to have her grandchildren back.

Yet, she remains by his side and support him 100%.

MS has been questioned by the police as well?

However, IF MS knew about the historical charges and has no issue with the grandchildren been taken away, can we then assume that she is covering for him and lying about his alibi or be aware of his possible involvement with the disappearance?

If she is covering for him, is it possible that she might have first hand knowledge of the abduction or even be involved? Whatever the case may be, she lost her grandchildren in the process, a issue that must be hard for her to overcome, just for the sake of SP.

My conclusion to this is that MS will not stand by a man who is the reason for her grandchildren being taken away. Blood is thicker than water and she lost these children.
