Overview
- Task Force Horizon resumed a targeted three-day sweep of Oak Park Station to look for evidence after recent heavy rain changed ground and waterways.
- Major Crime detectives and specialist STAR Group officers led the operation, which focused on waterways, drains and areas where erosion might expose new clues.
- Detectives have previously declared the disappearance a major crime, said a person who lived at the property is a suspect, and stressed no arrests or charges have been made.
- The long-running inquiry has involved hundreds of personnel, ADF support, cadaver dogs, Indigenous trackers and forensic testing, yet the only physical lead recovered to date was a single small footprint.
- Police will provide an on-the-record update on the search and next steps, and Crime Stoppers continues to urge anyone with information to come forward as the investigation continues.
