July 2001 in Northern Territory Australia, British tourists Joanne Lees and her boyfriend Peter Falconio are driving on a remote highway (Google either name and you'll be brought up to date). They are flagged down (In her words) by another motorist who then attacks them, the assailant ties her up and she hears a gunshot. She escapes from the car and hides in the bush for hours on end where the assailant tries to find her using a dog. Eventually he gives up and she comes out to seek help.
I'm being deliberately brief here because this is a murder/mystery of the highest magnitude and is worthy of scouring the web for info. You see her boyfriend's body has never been found and yet today in Australia a man stands charged with his murder. The trial has begun. If you poke around in this case you'll discover some very odd 'loose ends'. It should also be noted that the British Press who have a real eye for 'crime reporting' did not believe Miss Lees when she returned to Britain with her incredible story - she faces no charges at all. Is she an innocent victim? Or is this something far more sinister? Something stinks in this case.....I can smell it all the way over here in Scotland. You sniffing around on this one too Dog? Ben |

Joanne Lees killed her boyfriend and then buried his body in the bush, and Bradley John Murdoch is innocent. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and because Joanne is a women, she could never have done anything wrong. There should be NO trail until the body is found. He should get aquitted. The media intially blamed her and many people down here wanted her arrested and charged, but it never happened because they had no proof. SHe gave them so bs description of a man, which is general so it could be anyone. And now that b***h is free and probably laughing her ass off. What I want to know is what did she benefit from his death, money and possesions? She admitted to sleeping with another guy while they were down here, which shows how much she cared for her late boyfriend......

The man accused of murdering Peter Falconio took amphetamines to stay awake as he ran marijuana around Australia, the Northern Territory Supreme Court was told today. The former business partner of Bradley John Murdoch described how the pair would take turns in making the 3,000km trip between Broome and Sedan, in South Australia, in early 2001. New Zealander James Hepi said he sometimes used amphetamines to help stay awake on the drive, and stashed the marijuana in the four-wheel drive's large, spare fuel tank. Murdoch, 47, has pleaded not guilty to murder, and to assaulting Mr Falconio's girlfriend Joanne Lees and depriving her of her liberty beside an outback highway in July 2001. Mr Hepi said Murdoch appeared "scattered" after returning to Broome from one trip in mid-July 2001. "He'd been on the gear (amphetamines) for four or five days racing around the country and was fairly scattered," Mr Hepi said. "... there was a lot of gear taken to stay awake for those ... hours, (it was) like a nervous tension." He said Murdoch shaved off his bar moustache and cut his hair short to change his appearance, and was sick after the trip. When news of Mr Falconio's alleged murder was reported in the media, Murdoch volunteered "it wasn't me", Mr Hepi said. Mr Hepi said he recognised Murdoch in security footage from an Alice Springs petrol station shown on television after Mr Falconio's disappearance. "That's Brad, the way he walks," he said. "... the way in which he was wearing the hat to disguise his looks. "He said it was me, that was just the way he would be coming home." Murdoch wore caps when he visited roadhouses on the trips, so his face wouldn't be seen on security footage, and the pair had several mobile phones, and regularly threw them away after using them, Mr Hepi said. The pair took several different routes on their trips, including the 1,800km from Broome across the Tanami highway to Alice Springs, which was Mr Hepi's preferred route. That was the route the prosecution alleges Murdoch took on the night Mr Falconio disappeared "Across the desert you don't see anybody for quite some kilometres," he said. He described the Tanami road as "rough". "But (we had) fairly substantial vehicles and just drove them hard," he said. "The road was rough but still capable of doing 100kph along the road or more." Mr Hepi said Murdoch usually drove with his dog, Jack, a spotted dalmation mongrel, which he described as nice but easily scared. Chief Justice Brian Martin instructed the jury not to be influenced by Murdoch's alleged involvement in drugs, but to use the information as background to his driving on outback roads at the time Mr Falconio disappeared. The trial continues. "Im just a lonely drug dealer..........the bitch did it..........." |

Her story does not sound right. If Murdoch had just killed Falconio, it seems allmost unbelievable that Lees could have gotten successfully away from him, run into the bush and hidden herself successfully.
But, at the same time, she does not seem to have had enough motive to have killed Falconio that I can see from what I have read. And, she was a weed-smoker and here is Murdoch, a weed-smuggler. Did they set up a meeting out there to buy some dope and the deal got messed up and Falconio got shot? Where is that body? As for Murdoch's DNA on the gearshift, her shirt and the handcuffs, I guess it could have been planted. Very mixed up case. I hadn't heard about it. I'll be following this one now. |

Police are considering hyptnotising Lees in order to extract more information about the whole situation. Unsure whether she is keen on the idea or not as the articles dont say. Maybe she isnt and thinks that if she is hyptnotised that she might reveal the truth about the whole 'murder'. Oh well I guess we will have to wait........

That, to me, is surprising. I thought hypnotism was pretty much thought to be a pseudoscience fraud. I wonder why the police think that will help?
Also, as you all know, crystal meth can make people very aggressive and make them drive aggressively. We see that kind of "meth daredevil driving" all the time here in southern California. You can tell them when you see them racing up behind you, and we just get out of their way and refuse to make eye contact. If the accused guy, Murdoch, had been awake on meth for several days, maybe he could have done Falconio in, since meth makes people psychotically irritable. Then, he could have been too buzzed to go find Lees. Her story is still odd, though. |

(The Age 29/11/05) I didn't kill Falconio: Murdoch Alleged murderer Bradley John Murdoch has told a Northern Territory jury he had nothing to do with the disappearance of British backpacker Peter Falconio. The Broome mechanic took to the witness stand for the first time today at his trial in the Supreme Court in Darwin. Flanked by two security guards, Murdoch admitted smuggling drugs between Broome in Western Australia and Sedan in South Australia, and to owning two weapons - a 357 colt "Dirty Harry gun" and a black 38 palm-sized pistol. But he denied killing Mr Falconio, who disappeared beside the Northern Territory's Stuart Highway on July 14, 2001. Murdoch, 47, has pleaded not guilty to the murder of Mr Falconio and to assaulting his girlfriend Joanne Lees and depriving her of her liberty. Ms Lees was not in court when Murdoch first took the stand today, but walked into the courtroom a short time later as Murdoch was testifying. She stopped twice on her path to her seat to glare at the accused, before sitting down behind Mr Falconio's parents and his brother Nick. Murdoch directly faced the jury for much of his testimony, sometimes pausing to explain photos he was holding up, in his broad but mumbled Australian accent. He admitted being in Alice Springs on his journey north to Broome the same day as Mr Falconio and Ms Lees - the day the backpacker disappeared north of Barrow Creek. But he said he had left the Central Australian town by 3.30pm that day, driving slowly along the "rough" Tanami track towards Broome. He said he was towing a camper trailer, which he had bought to disguise his illegal drug activity, to look like "Tommy tourist". By 8pm that evening, when Mr Falconio was allegedly murdered, Murdoch said he was driving along the dirt track near the Aboriginal community of Yuendumu. "On 14 July, 2001 did you go to Barrow Creek?" defence lawyer Grant Algie asked. "No I did not. "Did you have anything to do with the alleged disappearance of Mr Falconio?" Mr Algie asked. "No I did not," Murdoch replied. "At about eight o'clock in the evening on July 14, 2001, where were you?" Mr Algie asked. "I would have been somewhere around - not quite Yuendumu, on the dirt road, on the Tanami Road," he replied. Murdoch described the track as "rough", but said he was not in any rush to get back to Broome. "I'm not in a hurry, you're doing the Tommy tourist thing, you just wander along - everything in the back stays in the same position and ... it doesn't get broken and you know you're going to get out the other side of the Tanami." Murdoch explained how he took his guns with him for protection as he ran large quantities of cannabis or cash between Broome and Sedan. "There was other people doing it, other people know what you're up to, so as a protectant." Murdoch agreed he had met Julie Anne McPhail - a witness who testified earlier in the trial - during a trip across the Nullarbor, but denied her claims he tried to sell her a silver gun. Murdoch also said an incident in which a friend claimed she saw a silver gun on a table with Murdoch and his drug partner James Hepi in South Australia never happened. The trial continues. So the real guilty party is composed enough to sit near to her victims parents, not next but behind so they cant see her smiles.......... |

Weird case isn't Keegan? I've been following it every time they go to court... Reminds me in some ways of the Lindy Chamberlain one. Northern Territory for you, but it is a place which is very remote and because of the huge distances of no settlements is why the lack of facilities in many a small locality. What did you think about all that DNA 'evidence' stuff?
Falconio accused 'looked like CCTV suspect' Wednesday November 30, 2005 The man accused of murdering the Briton Peter Falconio today insisted he had not shot him and disposed of his body in the Australian Outback. Bradley Murdoch denied killing the 27-year-old backpacker, but admitted he looked similar to a suspect on CCTV footage filmed at a Shell truck stop in Alice Springs, central Australia, a few hours after the alleged murder. Mr Murdoch told the Northern Territory supreme court, in Darwin, that his late father, Colin, and four of his friends had told him he looked like the man on the footage, but denied it was him. Rex Wild QC, for the prosecution, said: "The reason you deny you were at the truck stop is because it puts you in the frame for this murder." Mr Murdoch, who admits smuggling large quantities of drugs from Sedan, South Australia, to Broome, Western Australia, said: "No. I was not at the truck stop." The footage was recorded after the prosecution claims the 47-year-old had attacked Mr Falconio, of Huddersfield, and his girlfriend, Joanne Lees, of Brighton, on a road north of Alice Springs on July 14 2001. He denies killing Mr Falconio and depriving Ms Lees of her liberty and assaulting her after he allegedly flagged down the couple's camper van on a remote stretch of the Stuart Highway at around 8pm. The footage, taken in the early hours of July 15, shows a man driving a four-wheel drive car stopping to refuel. Prosecutors say Mr Murdoch was at the truck stop on his way back to Broome following the killing. When Mr Wild said the man on the video looked like Mr Murdoch, the defendant said: "It looks like a lot of people." On a second day of cross-examination, he denied shooting Mr Falconio and then wrapping his head in a denim jacket belonging to Ms Lees so blood would not stain his vehicle when he moved the body. "You're a fastidious man ... you didn't want blood in your vehicle?" Mr Wild asked him. Mr Murdoch replied: "I never had Peter Falconio in my vehicle." Mr Murdoch denied targeting the camper van because he believed it was carrying a lone woman. He said he could not explain how a match to his DNA profile was found on a T-shirt worn by Ms Lees, now 32, at the time of the attack, on the cable ties allegedly used to tie her hands behind her back, and on the gearstick of the couple's van. Mr Murdoch has admitted he was in Alice Springs on the same day as Mr Falconio and Ms Lees, just hours before the attack, which happened six miles outside the tiny settlement of Barrow Creek. However, he said he had left the town at around 3.30pm and was about 370 miles away on the Tanami track, heading towards Broome, at the time of the alleged murder. He also denied that he had kept one of Ms Lees's hair ties - which the prosecution said had been found in his possessions - as a "souvenir" of the attack. Later, Dr Katrin Both, a part-time scientist with the forensic science centre in Adelaide, said she had concerns about the DNA evidence presented by the prosecution. She said she had heard evidence about a "low copy number" DNA technique earlier in the trial, and was worried about its reliability. On day 14 of the trial, Dr Jonathan Whitaker, a senior forensic scientist with the UK's Forensic Science Service, said he used the technique and had found a DNA sample on the cable ties was 100 million times more likely to have come from Mr Murdoch than from anybody else. However, Dr Both, an expert in DNA and evidence recovery, said she was concerned about the reliability of the results and their interpretation, mainly due to the small amounts of DNA involved. Mr Falconio, from Huddersfield, has not been seen since the night of the attack, and no body has been found. The trial, expected to finish at the end of this week or the start of next, was adjourned until tomorrow. Dingo . |

Murdoch is in some deep water here. This situation somehow started out like this. Joanne Lees and Peter Falconio were having a sexual relationship, which has been going on before they started traveling together. They come to Aus and in Sydney we know that Lees took some X and slept with another guy, which might not of happened on the same night. From what I have read Falconio might not have taken drugs. So his girlfriend is out partying without him. He gets upset and on there way traveling along the Stuart Highway, they have a fight. He hits her and she gets mega pissed and wants revenge. She kills him and buries him out in the bush. Goes back to the highway, flags down Murdoch who was driving along the road, 'wired', minding his own business, but he thinks she is in distress. He pulls over to help her. She fakes that she has blown waterpipe, Lees gets Murdoch to fix it using cable ties. Then gets him to start the car, getting his DNA on the gear stick. Somehow along the way she gets his DNA on her shirt was well. After that Murdoch drives off and eventually pulls over at the Servo for whatever. Then Lees blames Murdoch for killing her boyfriend. The one thing they seem to be forgetting is MOTIVE. Why the hell would an interstate drug smuggler want to kill a tourist that somehow manages to get along his path? It wasnt for Lees or money or drugs! Lees however has more of a reason to kill him that Murdoch......
Does that sound unreasonable..........? There was VERY little DNA in the places were they found some, plus they used an inferior DNA analysis technique. So that is unreliable. Murdoch might not have been present at alll.....? When the media first heard about it they blamed Lees......... |

I heard this name a long time ago..........................................
It seems that this name is a long part of controversy control over land that has no bearing of another and will prove to be a 'burden of immenent of its own country men' its own nationality' to be supportive to protect the dead. 'His ghost' is willing and ready to talk to those whom wish to see him'. I snayone in the 'down under ready to visit with Peter Falconio. Please find someone, as he can speak to those whom have the talents to reach him. To all of you in the 'down under' Austaralia-this man's death is a huge part of how the future of Australia will run and care for its countryman,country citizens, and future of Australians. That's all for now. ISIS conscience,conscious,consciousness |

Peter Falconio is a Briton. His death, and his care, and finally of the
laws of how Britons and others are will be a descendant of trials and the master of the justice system in Australia, that is long overdue as Peter died over 4 yrs ago. ISIS |

ISIS:
LOL.... how dramatic.... ISIS, the way Australia is run and cares for it's own and others will not change because of Falconio... The minute the trial is over in a few days times there will be the usual hoo haa by the media and how long the hoo haa lasts will depend on the outcome of the trial... And unless there is some dramatic change and someone else then gets accussed for this.... Peter Falconio's parents and girlfriend will pack up and go back home to England and Australians will get on doing whatever it is they do best... and life will go on as per normal.
To all of you in the 'down under' Austaralia-this man's death is a huge part of how the future of Australia will run and care for its countryman, country citizens, and future of Australians. ISIS:
So what about a murder trial taking 4 years.. big whoop... it could just as well be 7 or 10 years or never when an actual murder trail takes place whether the victim is a British or Aussie or whatever... this case being more unusual as there is no body... I don't know what it's like where you live, but aside from an inquest, no actual criminal murder trial can ever take place until they find someone to accuse of the murder first.
Peter Falconio is a Briton. His death, and his care, and finally of the laws of how Britons and others are will be a descendant of trials and the master of the justice system in Australia, that is long overdue as Peter died over 4 yrs ago. Dingo . |

They can use a psychic and find the body. They can start at
the point he was last seen by 'citizens down under' and go from there. Those that have opened the third eye,can see the truth too. ~~~Peace~~~ ISIS conscience,conscious,consciousness |

So far no psychic be they overseas or in Australia has been good enough to know... The police are following up every and any lead to find the body....
They can use a psychic and find the body. They can start at the point he was last seen by 'citizens down under' and go from there. But we actually have something here heaps better than any psychic and they are the koori trackers... That is, the australian aboriginals who can read the ground so well that they are not only employed for police criminal investigation work... but also employed to look for tourists who think they know better than Australians and go against local advice and go wondering out in the desert and get lost or die in a couple of days. Doesn't take much to be dead out there in a day and the crows and eagles and hawks love to clean up what's left. And nope... no koori tracker found anything that was worth while which makes the mystery more mysterious coz the kooris know... and they will know who has been around and when and where. That's what makes it so weird is that they didn't find any tracks at the murder site which confirm what they are trying to do in court... if I were lost anywhere I would trust an Aborginal tracker to find me way way 100% over any psychic with or without a third eye... ISIS:
Well maybe you might like to offer your services and just close your eyes and tell me where the body is and I'll pass it onto the police... I'll make sure you get the credit for it though...
Those that have opened the third eye,can see the truth too. But Mr Wild returned to the theme later in his examination. The body of Falconio, who was 28 at the time of his disappearance, has never been found despite a prolonged search by police and Aborigine trackers. Dingo . |

(The Australian 1/12) A DEFENCE witness has rejected prosecution claims that accused murderer Bradley John Murdoch is the man filmed at a Central Australian truck stop after British backpacker Peter Falconio disappeared. Professor Maciej Henneberg told the Northern Territory Supreme Court today that he could not accept the conclusion that Mr Murdoch and the person in the security footage were the same man. Prof Henneberg, head of anatomical sciences at the University of Adelaide, examined the truck stop video, filmed at an Alice Springs service station just hours after Mr Falconio disappeared from the Stuart Highway, near Barrow Creek, 300km away. "I was able to determine that they (the images) were of very poor quality," Prof Henneberg told the court. "All I can say from the images is that they show a man of a particular body build, which I assessed as a lean body build." He said the man in the footage had a different body build and size to Murdoch. Prof Henneberg's head was superimposed on the image earlier in the trial in a defence bid to show that "practically any human head could fit into this blurred image", he said. The court earlier heard evidence from prosecution witness anatomist Meiya Sutisno that her "facial mapping" analysis showed Mr Murdoch and the man in the video were the same person. But Prof Henneberg said he did not accept Dr Sutisno's conclusion, partly because the images were of such poor quality. "There was very little I could see in terms of features, (the) lips are invisible," he said. "...the only thing I can tell is this man has a face, it's light in colour and it has some form of moustache. "That I'd be happy to say." Prof Henneberg also doubted Dr Sutisno's "anatomical knowledge" and suggested her reasoning was "contrary to scientific logic". The prosecution has alleged Mr Murdoch shot Mr Falconio beside the Stuart Highway during a drug-running trip across Central Australia on July 14, 2001. It alleges Mr Murdoch panicked and drove back to Alice Springs to refuel at the truck stop, before driving back towards Broome on the Tanami track. The court has heard several of Mr Murdoch's close friends and his father asked him if he was the man filmed in the security video, but he has denied it was him. Mr Murdoch, 47, has pleaded not guilty to murdering Mr Falconio, and not guilty to assaulting Mr Falconio's girlfriend, Joanne Lees, and depriving her of her liberty. The trial continues. Now the FBI doesnt even use this facial mapping analysis bullshit. The images are crap quality and its hard to tell anything. The DNA found was very little and a crap technique was used to analyse it. Its all very suspicious wouldnt you think? There is a high chance that the DNA isnt his, and the image on the video tape in the servo isnt him either. Why would he back track? It seems like he might not have been there at all, and wasnt back tracking, but was just minding his business on his drug journey. How can you be charged with a crime if there is no evidence that it happened. No murder weapon has been found, none of the victims DNA has been found. There is no evidence that Falconio was even with Lees on that highway. I mean he would have been but we cant prove it. Peter Falconio hasnt been found dead or alive, but yet someone his being charged with his murder. Some totally random dude kills tourist for no reason, thats what is claimed, but yet there is no body and NO MOTIVE...... There shouldnt even be a trail.......at this point in time..... |

Hi Ben and everyone! Great topic, i am so glad to find this as this case is something I have been reading about and I found totally disturbing!! There are just so many things that don't seem to add up about this. One thing I will say is that I think Murdoch is going to do time for this, the general opinion down under is that the guy is guilty and the press coverage has been so intense in this case I worry that he has not had a fair trial.
The main things in this case that have made me smell fish: Saw the 'CCTV footage' on TV news report today... i'm sorry but it looks nothing like John Murdochs build, the guy is huge, the guy in the CCTV footage looked stocky but didnt seemto have the same build, AND with such poor quality grainy footage HOW could ANYONE say 100 % that is WAS murdoch... Any reasonable doubt should make this piece of 'evidence' null and void. The vehicle in question is the most common vehicle seen in the outback. DNA Evidence - Wouldn't there be more ? More blood dna specks etc? PLus of course Lees herself, if Falconio was alledgely killed by gunshot, i dont think it would take the murderer long to put a bullet into her as well and i doubt he would stick around for so long looking for her. Something seems very wrong here. Lack of Trails found - The bush trackers could find no evidence of either a dog or a man in that area, only Joanne Lees i would love to know what really went on here. What do you all think about Peter Falconio himself? Say he wasnt dead, any ideas why he would fake his own death? And is it really possible that Lees wouldnt have seen a body?! |

Miss Ali you've caught me at a really bad time....I'm down south preparing for gigs with our band and get very little on line time, I won't be on full time until Tuesday, but I can say this.....Yes Murdoch will do a long time in jail for this (And maybe he deserves to) but there are still things which don't hang together on this one.....it stinks. Good to see you in the forum Miss Ali.

Miss Ali, you will be happy to know that the dna evidence doubt and the doubt about the picture has already has come up in court over the last few days. The general public opinion down under is that there is a lot of weird and very odd things about this trial. The media here is daily fairly well only publishing what has transpired in court. But the thing is, that these are the last days of the trial and it's not normal form to try to analyse and overspeculate what could or couldn't have have happened until all the evidence is presented and the trial is over...
Hence why you can't find too much in forums when you do a search because many forums I notice, are deleting threads and or posts which get too speculative or over the top. The reason being, because in depth speculation of what might have or might not have happened while a criminal trial is in motion, is seen as jepardising the case. However, talking about or posting up news about what has already come out in court is another matter. The only reason I can see why it went to court was that someone thought they had enough evidence against Murdock but hopefully the outcome will be the right one. Australian law deems innocent until found guilty. Dingo . |
