Accused murderers moved Pheobe's body ‘more than once': police
When asked about whether police had located a weapon, Mansfield said police were not speculating on weapons at this point. They believe Pheobe's remains might be in the greater Gin Gin area west of Bundaberg, and once she was located, detectives expected to find more evidence. Mansfield confirmed Pheobe had moved to the property in November with Wood and Bromley. He said dead dogs were located at that property after her disappearance. 'I'm unaware of the exact number,' he said. Mansfield could not elaborate on the level of friendship between Pheobe and the two accused. 'As you can appreciate, they've been under a level of scrutiny from the media and otherwise during this period, so they're understandably, I wouldn't say shocked, but they presented to us without any interference with our operations,' he said. In recent weeks, crime scenes were declared at the home, and a grey Hyundai ix35. 'We will allege our evidence will outline the fact that three people arrived near to the airport and three people never exited that vehicle,' Mansfield said on Friday, adding that Pheobe's luggage was yet to be found. Search teams, including police divers, the SES, and the dog squad, had scoured bushland in Gin Gin to find Pheobe. However, the search was called off late last week. When asked about evidence found at Good Night Scrub, Mansfield said: 'I can't comment on the evidence that we located at that scene but suffice to say its evidence enough to say that we believe that our accused and Pheobe were there.' Mansfield said police were drawn to the Gin Gin area through their investigation, which involved telephone data. 'Suffice to say our investigation has led us to that area through telephone data and the like.' Following the arrest, Mansfield said detectives were not finished, and additional staff were searching for Pheobe's remains. Pheobe's mother, Kylie Johnson, begged anyone with information to come forward. 'Our world has just been shattered into the most horrific place I've ever been,' she wrote online. 'I need my baby home to put her to rest! I'm absolutely begging anyone that knows anything to come forward. 'We need to put her to rest, we need to put her to peace.'

Major development in search for missing teen Pheobe
Police have had a breakthrough in the search for missing teen Pheobe Bishop, revealing items linked to the investigation have been located and are now being forensically examined. Officers, including from the dog squad and the SES, have been combing the greater Good Night Scrub National Park and Gin Gin in Bundaberg in the search for the 17-year-old who vanished on May 15. She was due to catch a flight from Bundaberg Airport to visit an old friend in WA, but never checked in, which her family say is completely out of character. On Monday, police said some items, believed to be linked to the investigation, had been located during the search and 'seized for forensic examination'. 'Police have now expanded the search area and have renewed their appeal for information after recent investigations show some evidence may have been moved from the Good Night Scrub area, prior to police arrival.' Detectives have appealed for anyone with information, vision or sightings of a grey Hyundai ix35 between May 15 to 18 in the greater Gin Gin area to contact police. The grey Hyundai ix35.

The video showed a grey Hyundai ix35 – the same car model police allege Ms Bishop travelled in on the day of her disappearance – driving along a backstreet of Gin Gin. Pheobe is described as approximately 180cm tall, with a pale complexion, long dyed red hair, and hazel eyes. Pheobe with her mother Kylie Johnson.
