BONES COULD BE LINKED TO BOWRAVILLE MURDER

The family of an Aboriginal child murdered in Bowraville, has been given fresh hope of receiving some closure following the discovery of human bones in bushland near the town.

16 year old’s Colleen Walker and Clinton Speedie, and four-year-old Evelyn Greenup, were killed in the small northern NSW town 20-years ago.

However, the body of Colleen has never been found.

In the latest development, Colleen’s relatives claims to have shared similar dreams, which has led them to the discovery of human bones.

The bones have been confirmed as human, and sent to Sydney for DNA testing.

The cases remain unsolved, after a man was acquitted in two trials.

  1. “The bones have been confirmed as human, and sent to Sydney for DNA testing.”
    From my sources I believe this to be an horrific and completely untrue statement
    that provides false hope to the family and friends of the missing teenagers, especially Colleen Walkers family and friends. I believe this statement to be of great injustice to many communities from all over Australia. Making this statement has added to the pain and suffering of all involved. I demand an explanation for this statement made on October 23rd 2011 before I start to advocate on behalf of certain families involved in this case. I would appreciate a quick and efficient response to this as I will not be waiting for your response to arrive when you feel the need to get around to it.

    Yours Sincerely
