November 3rd 2024.
After more than 10 years since toddler William Tyrrell went missing, the long-standing inquest into his fate is about to receive new evidence. The three-year-old was last seen playing at his foster grandmother's home in Kendall, a small town on the Mid-North coast of New South Wales, on September 12, 2014. The inquest, which began in March 2019, was adjourned in October last year, but is now set to resume today before Deputy State Coroner Harriet Grahame.
The hearings are expected to continue until Friday, with another week of hearings scheduled for December. It's been a frustrating and emotional journey for William's family and loved ones, as no one has been charged in connection with his disappearance. The government has even offered a $1 million reward for any information that could help solve the case.
Despite an exhaustive decade-long investigation involving hundreds of people and numerous searches, there has been no trace of William. He was last seen wearing a Spider-Man suit, and even a recent month-long search for his remains in November this year yielded no significant findings. In May, a review into potential evidence that suggested William's former foster mother may have been involved in his disappearance was halted at the request of the police to the NSW Director of Public Prosecutions.
The investigation had provided enough evidence to consider pressing charges against the woman, whose name cannot be revealed for legal reasons. Investigators believed that she may have disposed of William's body after an accidental death. However, the foster mother has consistently denied any involvement in William's disappearance. At a directions hearing in August, the counsel assisting the NSW Coroners Court, Gerard Craddock SC, informed that a list of witnesses and unresolved issues was being finalized.
The case of William Tyrrell continues to grip the hearts of the Australian public, with many calling for calm after a rapper was shot dead in Melbourne. The search for answers and closure for William's family and loved ones goes on, as the inquest resumes today with renewed hope for a breakthrough in this heartbreaking case.
