The Murder of Janelle Dunedin

Janelle was found dead on Norfolk Island in April 2004. She had suffered multiple stab wounds and a fractured skull. The local police didn't have the experience or resources to properly investigate, so Australian Federal Police took charge of the investigation. Every person over 10 who was on the island that day was sent a survey to complete. A total of 2,500 people came forward with information about Janelle's death. In May 2004, more than two years after her murder, authorities decided to hold an inquest into how she died. They also organized mass fingerprinting of every person between the ages of 15 and 70 who was onthe island the day of the murder.
