  • Manhunt vs The Missing: Why Resources Vanish When People Do
    Sep 2 2025

    When people in Australia go missing, families often hear the same chorus: "Resources are limited, searches can't go on forever, we don't have enough officers".

    In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we dive right into the deep end of reality in how missing persons cases in Australia rely on popularity. Using the current and "high-profile" case of Dezi Freeman as a lens, we explore why some disappearances trigger massive resources, while the majority fade into the system.

    This is a hard-hitting, confrontational discussion about fairness, accountability, and the human cost of selective attention.

    Tune in if you want the stark contrasts in missing persons responses and why every life deserves equal urgency.

    On the 1st of October, 2022, Luke Gilbert was shot and killed by members of the Queensland Police Service in Airlie Beach, Queensland.

    After a coronial inquest that saw no justice for the Gilbert family, the pain of his loss was made heavier by an unjust system that offered no accountability, no closure, and no real answers.

    We explore the Gilbert family's fight for justice by sharing the devastating outcome of a situation that could very well have been avoided.
