NSW Police Post $1 Million Reward in Renewed Push to Solve Theresa Binge’s 2003 Murder

Detectives are taking the search to border towns through on‑the‑ground appeals plus targeted outreach.

Overview

  • Unsolved Homicide detectives announced a $1 million reward and began a community campaign in Moree to generate new leads.
  • Police will deploy a mobile billboard across Moree, Goondiwindi and nearby towns to encourage witnesses to come forward.
  • Theresa Binge, 43, was last seen about midday on July 18, 2003, at O’Shea’s Royal Hotel in Goondiwindi, and her body was found on July 29 in a culvert 12 kilometres south of the town.
  • Forensic findings indicated she was killed elsewhere and dumped, and a coroner later ruled homicide by a person or persons unknown with no charges laid.
  • Investigators cite early cross‑border complications and inconsistent accounts as hurdles, while daughter Daylene Barlow backs the appeal and urges tips to Crime Stoppers.
