''Key points:

• Tina Greer was last seen at a Beechmont Road home in the Scenic Rim on January 18, 2012
• Police have named her boyfriend Les Sharman has the person of interest
• Detectives raided a property at Bonogin, where they believe Ms Greer's remains are located

Tina Greer was last seen at a Beechmont Road home in the Gold Coast hinterland around 2pm on Wednesday, January 18, 2012, intending to travel west to Clumber to see her boyfriend, Les Sharman, a patched Finks bikie gang member.

"We will be naming Les Sharman as our person of interest and we believe he has murdered Tina," Detective Inspector Damien Hansen said.

"We received some credible information which has brought us to this property.

"We believe that Sharman has been assisted by persons in disposal of Tina's body and the disposal of evidence that is linked to the murder."

The ABC understands the property being searched by police belonged to an ex-Lone Wolf bikie gang member at the time of Tina Greer's disappearance.''

"The case has been ongoing for the past eight years, gaining momentum in January, 2020, when detectives posted a $250,000 reward for information to track down those responsible for Ms Greer's disappearance.

While Mr Sharman has been named as the person of interest, he died in a car crash in 2018.

Police, however, believe Mr Sharman did not act alone and are trying to track down any information about the identities of anyone who allegedly helped him.''

Police 'confident' they'll find remains of missing mum as property raided
''Police are "confident" they will find the remains of a missing Queensland mum on a property in the Gold Coast hinterland.
Homicide Squad officers executed a search warrant on the property this morning in relation to the 2012 disappearance of Tina Greer.''

"I'm very hopeful that we'll locate it (Ms Greer's remains) and I'm also very confident that we will be able to … prosecute people for this offence," Insp. Hansen said.
He said officers were working on credible information "not just an anonymous tip-off".
Insp. Hansen said police believe Ms Greer was murdered elsewhere and brought to the property with the help of others.
He said Sharman was a "feared" man and more people may have come forward after his death.
In January this year officers investigating Ms Greer's disappearance broadened the reward to $250,000 for any fresh details surrounding the suspected cold case murder.
The scope of the reward has since been expanded to include any information which could assist in locating Ms Greer's remains or which leads to the conviction of a person or persons who acted as an accessory to her murder.''

Lili was told in May there would not be an inquest into her mum Tina's death.

Lili Greer has fire in her belly.

Finding out what happened to her mum Tina is ever-present in her thoughts.

"I literally can't think of anything else ... It's all-consuming really," she said.

Tina Louise Greer, 32, went missing from her Beechmont home in the Gold Coast hinterland on January 18, 2012.

She had gone to visit her Finks bikie boyfriend Leslie "Grumpy" Sharman at Spicers Gap and was never seen again.

He has been named by police and a Queensland coroner as the prime suspect in the young mum's murder but the 60-year-old died in a car crash in the Gold Coast hinterland in 2018 and was never charged.

A renewed police investigation that led to a Queensland property being dug up in 2020 has so far resulted in no fresh leads.

A Queensland coroner earlier this year ruled there would not be an inquest into Tina's death, saying it was not "in the public interest".

Her body has never been found.

After being left without her mum at age 13, more than 10 years on, Lili has refused to give up. She has started a petition to hold an
inquest, which has now been signed by thousands of people.

The day Tina Greer went missing her bikie boyfriend's car was suspiciously clean, inquest told

There is "no doubt" a Gold Coast woman was murdered by her now dead bikie boyfriend in 2012, an inquest has heard.

www.abc.net.au

Suspect's car was 'spotless'​

Harold White knew Mr Sharman for about five years before he died, and told the inquest, in hindsight, it was strange his friend's car was so clean on the day Ms Greer was reported missing.

"His car was always muddy. You had to go through a mud flat to get to his place but the day she [Ms Greer] was missing his car was spotless, like it had been detailed.

 

[imstilla.grandma]

"Mum needed someone who would believe her, listen to her, and most of all love her."

She said in hindsight, living with her mother was the happiest time of her life, despite living in fear of being stalked and her mother being abused.

Final oral submissions to the inquest will begin on Friday from counsel assisting the Coroner.
