Is that statement so they look innocent and to stop people giving them a hard time?

Are they innocent?
What are the inconsistencies?
Was it someone else. A local in the area?

Wish we had some information.

Probably their lawyers suggested it would be good PR.

The Advertiser apparently approached both of the grandparents lawyers and the police for comment, as tomorrow Gus will have been missing for 6 months.

Shannon's lawyer said that Shannon remained hopeful that Gus would be found. She is supporting Josie, cooperating through her solicitors, and hopes some info will come to light soon.

They say that they approached Josie's lawyer too - doesn't sound as if they have heard back, as there is no comment published.

(They need to edit their headline, they have referenced the wrong grandparent in the headline. They clearly state in the article that it was Mr Isaccs that made the comment, not Andrew Ey.)

A police spokesperson reiterated that they would continue to investigate until solved, haven't ruled out returning to Oak Park Station in the continuing investigation. No comment on operational aspects, such as if forensic examination of the items taken has been completed.

Crime Stoppers has received 505 calls in relation to Gus' disapperance.

The Advertiser has now corrected their headline for this article, and replaced the name Josie with Shannon:-

'There is still hope': Former detective reflects six months on from Gus's disappearance

Six months to the day since four-year-old Gus Lamont was reported missing from a vast outback station, many more questions than answers remain.

www.abc.net.au

Criminologist, former New South Wales detective Vincent Hurley, said the police probe into his disappearance “may take years” to reach an outcome.

“I honestly believe there is still hope,”

Dr Hurley said.
“The fact that the police are still going out there, the fact that they are still following up leads.

“They would not be going out there for no reason at all.

“The police will continually follow up this until it’s solved. It might take one, it might take three, it might take five years but eventually someone will be held to account.”
