Apr 18, 2024 lengthy article.
''Police are offering a $500,000 reward for information to help solve a Gold Coast cold case that they suspect was a murder.
Tammy Lisa Dyson, also known as Tamela Menzies, aged 23, was a mother of two when she went missing from the Currumbin area in 1995.
She was picked up from a drug rehab clinic by a woman claiming to be her sister and has not been seen or heard from since.''

''Dyson was born and raised in Victoria but in 1988 moved to Brisbane where she began working in the adult entertainment industry, under the nickname "Pebbles".
Police say she began mixing with criminals and using drugs while working in strip clubs on the Gold Coast.
In early 1995 she arranged for her young sons Jyles and Rainey to stay with their grandmother in Victoria.''

''A woman claiming to be Olivia picked her up on July 20, 1995. She was never seen again.
Olivia was her only sister and confirmed to police at the time she had not collected Tammy.
The following day Tammy completed a statutory declaration signed by a Justice of the Peace in Tweed Heads, giving custody of her children and her possessions to her mother.
She also made a final phone call to Olivia during which she mentioned underworld figures''.

''Ms Dyson was described as having been an outgoing, happy-go-lucky young girl who loved music, tarot cards and astrology, and who dreamt of one day becoming an actor.

However, things began to spiral after she moved to Brisbane from Victoria with her sister Olivia back in 1988 when she was just 17.

The pair worked in the adult entertainment industry in Brisbane and the Gold Coast, in strip clubs including Hot Lips and the Red Garter, getting caught up in the seedy underworld of Fortitude Valley.''
''The mysterious woman who collected Ms Dyson from rehab is now at the focal point of the investigation.''
By LISA EDSER FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA 17 April 2024
"Jyles and Rainey Lebler were aged just three and one, respectively, when their mum Tammy Lisa Dyson, 23, went missing from Currumbin on Queensland's Gold Coast in 1995.

The young woman, who legally changed her name to Tamela Lisa Menzies in the months before her disappearance, had been picked up from a drug rehabilitation centre by a woman claiming to be her sister, and has not been seen since'

''The announcement of the $500,000 reward, and immunity from prosecution for any accomplice who sheds light on Ms Dyson's fate, has been welcome by her children who are still desperate for information 30 years on from her disappearance.''
