Inquest Suggests Boyfriend Likely Killed Backpacker Simone Strobel

Detective asserts that Simone Strobel's boyfriend and companions may have been involved in her 2005 death in Lismore, Australia.

  • Simone Strobel's body was discovered in 2005, and her boyfriend, Tobias Moran, is believed to be the probable killer according to Detective Sergeant David Mackie.
  • Moran, along with his sister Katrin Suckfuell and friend Jens Martin, are suspected of being involved in the concealment of Strobel's body.
  • Despite charges being filed against Moran in 2022, they were later withdrawn due to lack of evidence, including absence of DNA or fingerprints.
  • Witnesses reported hearing screams near a local park at the time of Strobel's disappearance, but these accounts do not align with the theory she was killed at the caravan park.
  • The inquest continues as Detective Mackie maintains that the group lied about their activities on the night of Strobel's disappearance.
