Wynarka suitcase murder victim identified as Khandalyce Kiara Pearce;
her mother Karlie Pearce-Stevenson was also violently killed
20 October 2015
Khandalyce Kiara Pearce **************Karlie Jade Pearce-Stevenson
THE little girl whose body was found in a suitcase near Wynarka has been identified as Khandalyce Kiara Pearce, born in Alice Springs in 2006.
Her mother Karlie Jade Pearce-Stevenson was also brutally murdered, and dumped in Belanglo State Forest south of Sydney.
A joint investigation into their deaths has now been launched by SAPOLs Major Crime Branch and the NSW Homicide Squad.
The circumstances and place of the murders is yet to be determined, but they were last seen in late 2008 and Ms Pearce-Stevensons skeletal remains were found in August 2010.
SA and NSW police today revealed that the breakthrough began on October 8 when a caller to Crime Stoppers said Khandalyce was possibly the little girl in the suitcase. The caller had not seen Khandalyce or Ms Pearce-Stevenson for some time and believed they were missing.

Belanglo death: Detectives charge Karlie Jade Pearce-Stevenson acquaintance with murder
OCTOBER 29, 2015 9:44AM
DANIEL Holdom, 41, has appeared via video link at Maitland Court charged with the murder of Karlie Pearce-Stevenson.
His bail was refused and he was remanded in custody to appear at Sydney Central Local Court on November 12.
Police today have confirmed for the first time that Belanglo Angel Karlie, 20, was killed before her daughter Khandalyce.
In a short press conference in Sydney this morning, police said Karlie was murdered between December 14 and 15, 2008, and that tragically her daughter was kept alive for some time after her murder.
It comes after an acquaintance of Karlie was charged with her murder.
The Daily Telegraph can reveal Daniel Holdom was taken into custody at Cessnock police station by homicide detectives at 4.15pm yesterday.
He was charged with one count of murder late last night relating to the death of the 20-year-old mother but has not been charged over the murder of her two-year-old daughter Khandalyce.

THE FULL TEXT RELEASED BY THE FAMILY OF KARLIE PEARCE-STEVENSON AND KHANDALYCE PEARCE:
"Throughout Australia (and particularly in South Australia) people were deeply saddened by the news that a young child had been found dead in a suitcase.
Their thoughts and prayers were for this nameless infant whose life apparently was stolen by person or persons unknown.
There were no fond memories to share; rather the prospect that a child would be buried unknown to those who loved her.
They ask, however, that no matter the rumour, innuendo and conjecture that all remember always that a mother and her child were needlessly and callously killed.

Take Note: Daniel Holdom has been charged with the murder of Karlie Pearce Stevenson and the laws of sub judice now apply. This means that his case is under judicial consideration. His prior convictions are off limits here and any mention of them will be deleted immediately.
Do not post anything here that could be detrimental to the prosecution of this case. If there is anything you're unsure of, feel free to contact me privately.
