Accused … Malcolm Naden, shortly after his arrest.
Former bush fugitive and accused murderer Malcolm Naden stole talcum powder, a purple doona, a pair of sheepskin boots, a mirror and a book titled Dreams, court documents allege.
Mr Naden, 38, is charged with 13 break-and-enter offences and one of entering a dwelling that allegedly occurred between 2007 and 2012.
His matter came before Central Local Court today but Mr Naden, who is yet to enter a plea on a range of charges, did not appear.
Police allege that, while breaking into rural properties, he stole thousands of items of food and clothing, as well as several weapons.
The missing items included more than 60 bottles of beer, toothbrushes and five kilograms of raw cashews.
Property owners also reported that six pairs of binoculars, a semi-automatic rifle, knives and a solar-powered radio were stolen.
Talcum powder, a purple doona, a pair of sheepskin boots, a mirror and a book titled Dreams also disappeared.
The former abattoir worker was captured in a remote area of Gloucester in the Upper Hunter region on March 22.
He had been on the run from police since 2005.
Mr Naden has also been charged with murder in connection with the death of Kristy Scholes in 2005 and two counts of aggravated indecent assault on a 12-year-old girl.
He was also charged with the attempted murder of a police officer at Nowendoc on December 7, 2011.
Police also suspect he was involved in the disappearance of Lateesha Nolan, who went missing before Mr Naden disappeared in 2005.
Magistrate Clare Farnan adjourned today’s matter to the same court on August 7, when Mr Naden is expected to enter a plea to the indecent assault charges.
