Australia Pheobe Bishop, 17, failed to board a scheduled flight from a Queensland Airport. Last seen Airport Drive, Bundaberg, 15 May 2025

New Posts

Eerie unanswered question lingers near Bundaberg as shocking new details emerge about a rotting stench coming from the home where Pheobe Bishop was last seen before she vanished without a trace​


“Questions remain over exactly why she was living there, but final posts she made to social media before she disappeared suggested the troubled teen had fallen out with her mother and would not return home.

Ms Bromley's 2011 silver Hyundai ix35 hatchback with registration 414-EW3 - believed to be the car she travelled to Airport Drive in - has also been declared a crime scene.

Detectives said believe Ms Bromley and Mr Wood were the two people who drove her the 40 minutes to the airport.

Early reports suggested police had discovered and removed four dead dogs from the scene, but one neighbour told Daily Mail Australia she believed as many as 13 of the animals had been found.

Horrified residents watched from their windows and from the street as a forensics team scoured the location, with local police keeping careful watch.”

Foul smelling home where Pheobe Bishop was living a police focus

Police have made shock discoveries at a Queensland property, believed to be one of the last places 17-year-old Pheobe Bishop was seen.

Confusing reports as to whether both housemates were in the car or if it was just one of them. The report about a CCTV view of the car in Samuels Road says that Pheobe was in the back, so presume the two front seats were occupied?


“On Wednesday, Detective Acting Inspector Ryan Thompson confirmed Pheobe was being driven to the airport by one of the two people she had been living with in the town of Gin Gin, west of Bundaberg, who have since been revealed to be James Wood and Tanika Bromley.

He confirmed police are confident Pheobe never made it to the airport.

Her luggage is also missing.

It is not known which roommate was in the car with Pheobe, but police are also probing reports the 17-year-old was arguing with the driver on her way to the airport and was kicked out of the car before going missing.”


 
???? Mistake, or do they know something we don’t??

What IS interesting about this article is TB was found to have been carrying those weapons out near Emerald.
The very region JW and his ex lived and of which JW had left her only 6 months prior to moving to Gin Gin and in with TB......

More to this story IMO

Snipped by me

I'm trying to find the older news article that shares the neighbour called police after hearing a man yelling and a woman screaming, but the police didn't show up, the morning of.
It was on this thread earlier on but was removed.

This kid never stood a chance :(

I saw that also, it said that, a neighbour rang the Police at 5am after they heard a man yelling and a girl screaming, but I also cannot find it anywhere. Maybe the article has been edited now.

For those of you tracking the case from overseas, ABC news is more legitimate than Sky News, the Courier Mail or the Daily Mail who will publish articles based on rumours even if they're not true.

A lot of takes have been shared here, but it sounds like they're from an overseas point of view. This post is only aiming to help.

Yes, Gin Gin is a small community. Phoebe is 17 years old and many teenagers from Gin Gin, Bundaberg and other regional areas like the idea of living in the city after high school. It is entirely possible her social media posts about getting away are regarding that. Her BF lives in Perth which is the opposite side of Australia and a minimum of 2 flights from Bundaberg, so it could be about that. Gin Gin, like almost every city in Australia, has drugs.

She's 17, so she likely graduated from high school November/December 2024. It's normal to not live with your family after graduating from high school.

I'm familiar with the airport and unless the roommates are charged, I'm going to lean towards the idea that they did drop her off near the airport. It's a safe area, there are walking paths, shops nearby and while it wouldn't be my preference, I have heard of people being dropped just outside the airport terminal to avoid having to take a ticket and park. There is a drop off zone, but it is limited and often people park there so it gets filled quickly. If the roommate gave her a lift on their way to work, it would be easier and not suspicious to drop her nearby, especially if Phoebe was early for her flight.

I've mentioned it previously, but it is common to bury pets in your backyard after they die, especially in more regional areas. This could be suspicious but it could also be 20+ years worth of pets that aren't linked to the current tenants.

Guns aren't as easily accessible in Australia than other countries, but in Gin Gin there are lots of farms so more people would have access to a gun. However, if Phoebe isn't found alive (and I hope for her sake and for her family, she is), I would be shocked if the cause of death was by a gun.

Cheers.

Just in regards to a few things.

ALL media outlets feed off each other and all of them have sloppy journalists and great journalists. All as bad as each other when it comes to these sorts of missing persons cases. In fact, in one case that is well known in Australia, a journalist made a motsa on the tall tales of stories based around the case and it sold to the public, most of whom believe every word of it. Because it was a book a journalist on the case wrote. Such is the world we live in today.

PB was kicked out of home long before she finished high school and went back and forth to home trying to find resolution in her young life, let down by both her parents as she herself says on many of her own posts.

I'm sticking to the police report that she was not anywhere near that airport, never entered the terminal, never checked in for her flight.

When police finally arrived at the rented house, the stench of dead dogs, 3 or 4 dogs that had been recently shot, filled the neighbouring areas.

" A stomach-churning stench surrounded the home on Thursday morning and Ms Loughland ( neighbour) said the remains of up to 11 dead dogs had reportedly been found at the property during police inquiries.

The couple were not at the address on Thursday, while detectives in forensics gear scoured the home.


Cant imagine buried dogs filling air with stench myself.


While many farmers certainly do have gun licences for their farm, carry a gun and knives in your car, in a public place / school, as the charge against TB was, my guess is BOTH JW and TB knew how to use guns and knew that by law, carrying weapons in your car while in a pubic place /school is against the law.

The odds are stacking up against JW and TB

As far as a job goes , my guess would be an illegal job and benefits . JMO

Yes correct.

This is why that other post regarding the " 5am argument on the morning" wasn't found. The same person who posted that tall tale on socials, is also suggesting PB will be found in WA. I think we call them scamming psychics - gleaning information from social media posts of the victim / missing person and predicting garbage that isn't correct.
"The 5am arguing in the street the morning of the flight " was from that same person saying she was in WA at such and such location, which is why I didn't link it up here.
