Australian police reveal unseen photos 25 years after British backpacker murder

Australian police have released previously unseen photographs from the investigation into the murder of British backpacker Peter Falconio 25 years ago. Falconio was shot on a remote highway near Barrow Creek, Northern Territory, on 14 July 2001. His body has never been found, and his killer, Bradley Murdoch, died in jail last year without disclosing the remains' location. The images show Murdoch, a traumatized Joanne Lees, and the orange Volkswagen Kombi van. Police hope the photos may jog memories and lead to a tip-off.
