Victoria Police have decided to end their recent search for Samantha Murphy, a mother from Ballarat who has been missing since February. This search took place in the Enfield State Park, about five kilometers away from where her cell phone was found in a dam back in May. After thorough searching, officers were unable to locate any items of interest and concluded their efforts today.
Despite this outcome, the investigation into Murphy's disappearance is still ongoing and focused on finding her body. For now, police are unable to provide further details about their operation. Murphy, a mother of three, was last seen alive on February 4th when she left her home for a morning jog.
Despite multiple extensive searches, her body has still not been found. However, during a search south of Buninyong on May 29th, police were able to locate her mobile phone. This location was about five kilometers south of where her phone had last pinged to a tower. As a result, 22-year-old Patrick Stephenson has been charged with murder and is currently in custody. His case will return to court in November after a 12-week adjournment was granted.
If anyone has any information about Murphy's disappearance, they are urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 1800 333 000. It is clear that the search for Samantha Murphy is ongoing and her family and loved ones are still hoping for answers and closure. The Victoria Police have assured the public that they will continue their efforts to find her and bring justice to those involved in her disappearance.
