Well, I certainly am! I walk early in the morning but I go to Mt Coot-tha. I noticed the resident underneath LT's unit now always has her curtains pulled and her door closed. Previously both that unit and LT's unit would keep the wooden door open and the screen door shut (and probably locked too). It could be that the weather is a bit chillier now too. An ex-neighbour to my complex (who had run-ins with LT about cutting through the secret path from time to time) said she would be totally freaked and even though they've moved out, couldn't stop looking at the news for that fortnight.
Sadly, many of LT's missing posters were taken down about four days ago.
Relatives were at the unit again this morning and just left. So sad for them. I want to leave some flowers at the tree to the right of the photo (just out of shot) where the recycle bins used to be.

Is there any chance that you know which complex on Maryvale Street that the bin containing LT was situated in front of ??
And is there any chance you know what side of Maryvale Street is regularly collected first when the truck makes its rounds?? LT’s front footpath or the other side of the street??

Sorry, I don't. I don't know where the blood was found. I saw police at the fenced bin area at no. 56 Maryvale St. I drive down Maryvale st maybe twice per week only, so I have no idea. It is collected quite early in our streets - done before 8am.

It takes me about 20 mins brisk walk to Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens. Police told me she normally drove there as even though she was quite fit.
They didn't say how they thought she got there. I suggested to police that although she appeared happy about selling and moving on to the next stage of her retirement plans, maybe what she was about to do (leave her unit and move to a retirement home) hit her suddenly and she just took off to Mt Coot-tha in a daze or panic. But they said no, she normally drove there and that wasn't something she would normally do. I called Indooroopilly police when I saw (who I later found out was) her niece putting up the A4 missing poster in the bus stop on Ascog Tce (see screenshot below). TBH, I feel that by the time they questioned us at the unit they had knowledge she wasn't at Mt Coot-tha.
That puzzled me. As our bins are normally collected quite early, I wondered why that is. Maybe sometimes drivers are delayed and they get collected later. I know in Quinn St they are collected a bit later (after 8.30). Edit: trucks might start in Sherwood Rd, go to Clayton Lane, Maryvale, then onto those other streets working towards Milton Rd.
Was that Easter Weekend, (Good Friday) or did Police start door-knocking in the few days before that?? And only brought detectives in on Good Friday??? Just curious….
Please don’t feel like you have to answer my questions…. Absolutely no obligation …

No worries. I called police on Tue evening 28 March & they called me back on Wed 30 March and door knocked on Saturday 1 April. Came back on Wed 5 April for official statement. Officer said it was 'for the coroner.' *me horrified face* Officer: 'In case of worst case scenario' as it's best to get an early statement for good witness recollection. I think they already knew about finding LT in the bin by 1 April. Just my opinion because asking if my friend had ever seen LT with her feet off the ground when looking into bins...

No worries. I want to know what happened to Lesley even more than you all. Unless you are a neighbour too. I've since been told that there is some anxiety and unrest in the neighbourhood from neighbours. And talk of a neighbourhood meet-up in the works too.
Possibly a Freudian “slip up” here.. and could be very telling IMO
Usually, you have a body before you you prepare a report for the Coroner…
Until then, it is just an investigation …
The reasons that could be applicable in this case for a Report to the Coroner are:
Types of reportable deaths
Unknown identity
Even if nothing about the death is suspicious, the death of a person with unknown identity must be reported to a coroner unless the identity can be established with enough certainty to register the death.
Fingerprints, photographs, dental examinations or DNA can be used to identify the person.
Violent or unnatural death
A death is violent or unnatural if caused by accident, suicide or homicide rather than a disease’s natural progression. Car accidents, falls, drowning, electrocutions, drug overdoses, and industrial and domestic accidents are all reported to coroners.
These deaths are reportable even if a delay occurs between the incident causing injury and the death, as long as the injury caused or contributed to the death and the person wouldn’t have died without the injury.
Suspicious death
Suspicious deaths are generally those where homicide is suspected or cannot be excluded. A suspicious death is also one where the death has occurred unnaturally but it's unclear whether another person has been involved. If police consider there is sufficient evidence to lay criminal charges in connection with the death they may do so. In these cases, the coronial investigation is postponed until those charges are resolved.
Cause of death certificate hasn't been issued and is unlikely to be issued
Where a patient appears to have died from natural causes, medical practitioners must issue a cause of death certificate if they can determine the probable cause of death. If they can’t, they must report the death to the coroner for an autopsy to determine the medical cause of death.
Assistance is available to help medical practitioners to fulfil this obligation, including:
useful information about the issuing of certificates can be found through HealthPathways and Primary Health Networks
a forensic physician in the Clinical Forensic Medical Unit at Queensland Health is available during business hours to discuss cases and provide advice
the coronial registrar in the Coroners Court is available during business hours and can provide advice about whether it is appropriate to issue a death certificate.
If a medical practitioner cannot form an opinion about the cause of death or has concerns about the circumstances of death, they must report the death to the coroner.
