TO THE FAMILY OF GAIL LYNCH
We support you and will never forget Gail.
 
Ive only just read through the threads on this case ... :(

If Police could possibly find the rug - they may find Gail.
One thing about carpet - it lasts for years - underground or in water.

just a question about the rug - is it the full red/crimson rug on the right of the photo?
Or is it the hall runner edged with a crimson border?

From that same report...

A Department of Justice spokesman said as per the Victims of Crime Assistance Act 2009 a prosecuting agency is to, if asked by a victim, give the victim information about the crime committed against the victim including details about relevant court processes and when the victim may attend a relevant court proceeding, subject to any court order.

I think we all know communication with or between government depts. can be non existant at times but this is just unacceptable for this poor family.

Time to pick up your game Qld Dept of Justice & stick to the above quote, it's not hard work, just a few phone calls to this family!!

Figtree....I think it is the one with the patterned mid section as it looks to be about the size as mentioned further down in that report...

Several items had been taken from her modest unit including a red rug that should have been on her kitchen floor.

Inspector Darrin Shadlow urged people to keep an eye out for the rug.

"This is the red rug we are looking for," he said.

"It's about 2m by 3m approximately with a gold border.

"We'd ask that anyone who sees this rug to contact Crime Stoppers or the Warwick police."

Phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Thanks Marly! :tyou:

Do you know what I thought the picture looked like - 2 separate rugs.
1) A hall runner and 2) a plain rug in the next room.
Now looking at it with the dimmensions you quoted, I can see it is one rug and the patterned piece is actually part of the rug edge.

I hope they searched the tip (no doubt they did) - but that rug is pretty distinctive. I would also think that she was possibly placed on the inside of the rug, so the pattern and colour may not be seen.

I hope you are one day found Gail, or that Police are told where you have been placed.

My thoughts go out to the family.

I hope that he will be found guilty and confess to where Gail is. So unfair on the family with no closure.

Justice for Gail and her family!
 
Gail, you and your family are not forgotten at this time of year.
 
Still waiting for justice for Gail and her family. Time someone fessed up. Come on Hannaford.
 
From October:

http://www.thechronicle.com.au/news/murder-trial-jury-still-deliberating/2820206/

Just as he had done throughout his three week trial, Ian Phillip Hannaford showed little emotion when the Toowoomba Supreme Court jury pronounced him guilty of murdering his former girlfriend Gail Lynch...

In handing down sentence, Justice John Bond... said there was only one sentence that he could impose and that was life imprisonment, though Justice Bond declared the three years and three months Hannaford had spent in pre-sentence custody as time served under the sentence.

Hannaford therefore will serve another 12 years behind bars before he is eligible to apply for parole.

Families of murdered Queenslanders have called for killers to be kept behind bars until they reveal where they’ve hidden their victim’s body...

“We firmly believe if the person has been found guilty of murder, with no shadow of doubt, and the body has not been recovered, they should never, ever receive parole,” general manager Ross Thompson said...

Mr Hutchison said he would never stop searching for his mother’s body. “You always go to court hoping that maybe he’d think, OK, they got me, I should let them know,” he said.“But he didn’t. Why should he get parole? ”

I so agree. Finding Gail is necessary for her family for closure. RIP Gail. Feeling for the family.
 
So glad he was found guilty, but why oh why can't he help her family? Narcissist until the end! :(

Gail, you deserved so much more in life!
 
Is there any new info on this case does anyone know? Have they found Gail's body yet? He should never get out.
 
He should never get out. Plus he should be made to tell where Gail is. That is so unfair on her family and friends. Does anyone know if there are counsellers in prisons who attempt to get this type of information out of prisoners?
