Mourners gathered in silent reflection outside the Westfield mall in Bondi Junction.

Members of the public look at flowers placed outside the Westfield Bondi Junction shopping mall in Sydney on April 14.

As night fell on April 14, a group of about 40 people from a local Muslim association placed flowers on the ever-growing pile outside the shopping centre. On any given weekend the Westfield shopping centre is packed with people shopping for clothes or groceries, with families grabbing a bite to eat or a movie.

Despite early social media reports falsely linking the attack to events in the Middle East, New South Wales police Assistant Commissioner Anthony Cooke said there was no evidence that Cauchi was “driven by any particular motivation, ideology or otherwise”. Cauchi is believed to have travelled to Sydney about a month ago and hired a small storage unit in the city, according to police. It contained personal belongings, including a boogie board.

Good’s family described her as “a beautiful mother, daughter, sister, partner, friend, all round outstanding human and so much more”.
