Police investigate Murdoch over missing girls
Monday Jul 23 05:00 AEST
By ninemsn staff

Police suspect convicted killer Bradley John Murdoch may have murdered two young women who went missing in Western Australia in the late 90s.

Broome locals also believe that Murdoch, who is serving life for murdering British backpacker Peter Falconio, may have been involved in the disappearance of Sara Davey and Petronella Albert .

Northern Territory journalist Paul Toohey visited Broome — where Murdoch lived for many years — as research for his new book about the Falconio case called The Killer Within.

Both girls disappeared in Broome, with Davey reported missing in 1997, and Albert in 1999.




Toohey said many locals approached him suggesting that Murdoch could have been involved.

"Western Australia police haven't ruled out Murdoch as a suspect, but that doesn't mean he was involved," he told the NT News.

"It is speculation — he remains a suspect, nothing more."

Territory police reportedly profiled Murdoch as a "cleanskin" — a first time, one-off killer.

Toohey said Broome locals are baffled by the disappearances, and the only explanation they can come up with is the Murdoch theory.

"They just disappeared," he said.

"No one in Broome knows what happened to them."

Anyone with information about the disappearance of the women can call police on 1800 333 000.

Sara Lee Davey is described as 175cm tall with black hair and brown eyes. She was last seen driving a four-wheel-drive in Saville St, Broome, on January 14, 1997.

Petronella Albert is described as 160cm tall with black hair and brown eyes. She was last seen in Broome on April 28, 1999.

EXCLUSIVE
FEBRUARY 17 2017
Inquest set to be held into Broome cold case disappearance
Phil Hickey

A coronial inquest will be held later this year into the cold case disappearance of a woman who went missing in Broome almost 18 years ago.

Petronella Albert was 21-years-old when she vanished in Broome in 1999.

She was last seen leaving her home at 8.30pm on April 18, 1999. She has not been seen or heard of since and her body has never been located.

The WA Coroners Court has set a two day inquest in early July into the case. The hearing is expected to take place in Broome.

WAtoday can reveal WA Police provided a coronial report into Ms Albert's disappearance to the Coroner's office in March last year.

"The Special Crime Squad conducted a review of the case in 2015 and following the completion of the review recommendations, all known investigative opportunities have now been exhausted," a police spokesperson said.

"It would be inappropriate for police to speculate about the outcomes of this inquest now that the matter is before the Coroner."

Normally, inquests are held so that the Coroner can examine the full circumstances surrounding the death of a person.

Witnesses are called to give evidence and exhibits are tendered to enable the Coroner to make findings in relation to that person's death.

It is unclear at this stage how many witnesses and who will be called to give evidence at Ms Albert's hearing in July.

However, it's anticipated the witness list will include Ms Albert's friends and family and police officers who investigated her disappearance.

Broome musician and actor Stephen "Baamba" Albert, Ms Albert's uncle, said he was pleased an inquest would be held.

"I think its about time something happened because we have heard nothing," Mr Albert said.

"It would be good to find out what happened."
