She was last seen carrying luggage and wearing a green tank top and grey sweatpants.

Police conducted a land search of Airport Drive and the surrounding areas on Monday, but were unsuccessful in finding the girl or any of her.

Not a great update. It sounds like the car she travelled to the airport in was with people she knew? Has that been confirmed?

Okay maybe I read that wrong. Not home, but where she was staying….

 

[Fika]

There are cameras everywhere in and around airports. Is there video of someone dropping her off?

Im a bit confused as to why driving her to the airport all the way to take her back and harm her? Or was drive to the airport coverup and she was never in a car or harmed during the way and the car turned back.

It seems that she was last seen after she was dropped off…. So it must have been a video….

If she was seen dropped off how is the place she was staying prior a crime scene? Do they assume she was dropped off and then again picked up and returned there?

Yeah…it’s strange. Maybe she was called back to the car for some reason.

 

[whitelilac]

Who was she staying with, what was the purpose of her visit and what is meant by "associates"?
And "she never made it into the terminal"
Is it possible she was involved in this "crime" and she somehow got into another car at the airport?
Or someone was waiting and took her back in another car?
But the car is also a "crime scene"
???

omg
On Wednesday, several dead dogs were reported to be found at a Gin Gin property where she was living before her disappearance, but police have refused to confirm this.

Bags of rubbish was also spotted outside the property along with a large bus parked out the front of it along with a boat.

The teen was reportedly staying with a number of people at the property, but there was no sign of anyone there on Wednesday.

Reading the two posts above, i have even more question marks in my face!
Where is the mum living? Also on this property? What kind of property is this? It is not called a farm or anything else, but property?! What happened with those dogs? High school sweatheart, but where from or is Phoebenfrom somewhere else? And I have more questions...

In Australia, a house is called a "property" because it's a legally recognized "thing" with associated rights and responsibilities. The term "property" in this context refers to both the land and any structures (like a house) built upon it.

What is also strange is that Airport road is not that long and distant from the airport

And I do not like at all the vicinity of Burnett river

 

[truthfinder2019]

Has anyone found the property in question ? Reading the news reports, it is probably not that far from the airport
