However, English said in her findings that two now-deceased men – Catholic priest Anthony Bongiorno and Peter Keogh – remained “significant persons of interest” after the 17-day inquest.Her death was the subject of the popular ABC podcast Trace.English found that while police were flooded by information and false leads after a $50,000 reward at the time, they were responsible for errors that hamstrung the investigation.
In 2017, it was revealed the item was from an unrelated case, which counsel assisting the coroner, Sharon Lacy, had said had cost the investigation “14 years of potential progress”.But other items of evidence, including James’s blood-stained clothes, have long been missing from the police exhibits.

She and her children were doomed as soon as she met that asshole.
