The development comes shortly after Queensland Police stopped the physical search for the teen, who went missing on 15 May.

Overview

  • On June 5 Queensland Police charged James Wood and Tanika Bromley with murder and interfering with a corpse over the disappearance of 17-year-old Pheobe Bishop.
  • Bishop vanished on May 15 after her housemates dropped her at Bundaberg Airport for a flight she never boarded.
  • Investigators have yet to locate her remains and have declared the Gin Gin residence and the grey Hyundai ix35 used on the day as crime scenes.
  • Search efforts at Good Night Scrub National Park and across the greater Gin Gin region were scaled back on June 4 but will recommence if new information emerges.
  • Wood and Bromley, who were previously charged with unrelated weapons offences during vehicle and property searches, will appear in Bundaberg Magistrates Court on Friday.
