Two Charged with Pheobe Bishop Murder after Body Found near Gin Gin

Seventeen-year-old Pheobe Bishop disappeared near Bundaberg Airport on May 15 while traveling to Western Australia to visit her boyfriend, and her remains were found weeks later in Good Night Scrub National Park. Her housemates, James Wood and Tanika Bromley, have been charged with her murder and are accused of moving and tampering with her body after the alleged killing. The squalid conditions of the home where Pheobe lived with Wood and Bromley were revealed in harrowing footage, showing piles of rubbish, dirty bedding, and a foul smell, highlighting the neglect she endured. Experts anticipate that Wood and Bromley will be placed in protective custody in jail due to the risk of 'convict justice' given the nature of the crime and the victim's age. The accused have not entered pleas and remain in custody awaiting further court appearances, while police continue investigations into the motive and circumstances surrounding Pheobe’s tragic death. The community has been urged to support efforts related to the case, as details continue to emerge.
