Unravelling Murphy's Creek
Reward Offered
09/18/24 • 2 min
6 October 2024 marks half a century since Lorraine Wilson & Wendy Evans were murdered at the foothills of the Toowoomba range in 1974. We have one last chance at some form of justice for the girls before this case is lost to time. There are important questions that deserve to be answered, for the girls' sake if no-one else's. Why does this case sit cold and unsolved? How did assumed perpetrator evidence go "missing" from police custody? Why did police destroy 99% of the remaining physical evidence in an open case for which they have an active $250K reward? And why weren't glaring leads followed up on?
Who benefited from this case going absolutely nowhere?
We tried to do this "the right way", behind the scenes. Many incredible people have helped us on the journey so far. People I hope you'll get to meet, because they deserve recognition of their willingness to try and right wrongs that happened decades ago, at the hands of others. The public narrative in the case will have inevitably hindered justice for Lorraine & Wendy. Because it isn't accurate. We aren't asking you blindly believe us, just to listen....and we'll show you.
Going public isn't a strategy. It's our only option left.

Reward Offered
07/24/24 • 41 min
ALL INDIVIDUALS ARE PRESUMED INNOCENT UNTIL FOUND GUILTY IN A COURT OF LAW
Welcome to Part 1 of our dive into the suspicious death of Angela Mealing.
Angela was 17 when her life was cut short. On the same night she disappeared, Angie had already been physically assaulted on at least 2 separate occasions that we know of. 6 weeks later her body was found. Was it suicide? Or staged to look like one? The last person who admits to being with her, was an off-duty police officer.
In Part 1 we'll examine this officer's various, changing statements about events that night & look at the evidence available in the case.
Someone is holding the information that pieces Angie's puzzle together.
The reward offered for information in the death of Angela Mealing, is $250,000.
If you or someone you know, has information pertaining to the circumstances of Angela's death, please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Part 4 of 4
Welcome to Episode 4! We hope you've been enjoying the deep dive into the Murphy's Creek Murders. This is our last episode on the case (at least for the moment) and we certainly aren't sneaking quietly out the back door. Today we'll get into the real head scratching elements of the official narrative and discuss information directly from sources close to the case, which only seems to raise more queries as we work to answer the question, "What is going on here?"
By the end of today's episode we will have covered every piece of publicly known information that I was able to track down on the case.
After considering all the evidence for yourself ... where do you stand?
Time for one last dive on this one!

012. Meaghan Rose: $200K Motive
Reward Offered
09/04/24 • 42 min
Welcome to our dive into the death of Meaghan Louise Rose.
This could easily be the plot of a Netflix thriller. A suspected suicide turned murder investigation, a beheading, a nationwide manhunt for an alleged killer who slipped through the police net & a half a million dollar reward for his capture.
When our victim Meaghan Rose died back in 1997, her death was initially found to be non-suspicious and was ruled a suicide. It wasn’t until last year in July 2023, 26 years later, that QLD police issued an arrest warrant in her case. With that arrest warrant this case doesn’t currently sit as a whodunit, but rather, a where-is-he?
As the subject of that warrant, 71 yr old Keith Lees, is on the run.
Despite his age, Lees is a convicted murderer and will continue to pose a very real danger to the Australian public, particularly women in the community, until such time as he is apprehended.
We are all responsible for finding him. If you recognise Lees, do NOT approach him. Call triple-0 immediately and notify police of his whereabouts.
The reward offered for for the apprehension & conviction of the person or person's responsible for Meaghan's suspected murder, is $500,000. There is also an indemnity from prosecution on the table for any accomplice to the crime.
If you or someone you know has information pertaining to the circumstances of Meaghan's death, please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Part 1 of 4
The last known confirmed sighting of Lorraine Wilson and Wendy Evans was on October 6, 1974. Their car had broken down and the 2 girls were hitchhiking their way back to Dubbo, from Brisbane. They were reported missing 6 days later on 12 October. It would be 2 years before their bodies were discovered in a scrub paddock in Murphy's Creek, outside of Toowoomba. Their belongings, including jewellery, were scattered on the ground around them. 7 men have been publicly named & accused of being involved including 1 deceased man labelled as one of their murderers in a subsequent inquest. But ARE they the men that murdered Lorraine & Wendy? Is that what the evidence shows? Or are the guilty men still out there?
If you, or someone you know, has information pertaining to the murders of Lorraine Wilson & Wendy Evans, please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

This episode's case is the confounding Pearce family murders.
On the morning of Sunday the 6th of January 1991, fire crews were alerted to a house fire in a suburban Adelaide home. Once extinguished, the bodies of Meredith Pearce & 3 of her children, Adam, Travis & Kerry-Jay were found inside. This was not however the result of a tragic accident. All 4 were murdered prior to the fire being set.
Was their husband and father the person responsible for taking their lives? And if so - where is he? Why was one child seemingly spared? Alternatively, some suggest that Pearce too fell victim to a perpetrator from outside the home.
Their families remain haunted by the unanswered questions. But someone holds the missing piece of the puzzle. Is it you?
The reward offered for information in the murders of Meredith and the children, is $1 Million.
If you, or someone you know, has information pertaining to the Pearce family murders, please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
