Re point 3 - the version I read went like this:

  • Robinson's dad saw the pics and thought he recognised his son
  • He asked the son about it and eventually he confessed to the dad
  • The dad then told a family friend
  • The family friend told the police, possibly at the Dad's request

I had heard the dad asked a religious leader (pastor, maybe?) what he should do after his son admitted it to him, and it was the pastor that actually turned him in.

Yeah, same person, I think.
