Comments:

Kim Teers last presumed location was near Kangaroo Ground where she received mail.

michellemaree69 was listed as living approx 40 kl from Kangaroo Ground


At the Inquest her friend Ms Mudford suggested it was possible Kim Teer could cut off all contact and live in a hippy commune. Inquest item 59

michellemaree69 interestingly calls herself a “hippy rock chick” in her POF profile.


Mr Triggs, who was later cleared of any involvement with the disappearance of Kim Teer is alleged to have said ” Ms Teer did not want her mother to know where she was” Inquest item 71⁰


The 10cm difference in height could be explained by a simple typo of 165 instead of 175 cm

Kim Teers eyes were blue but could easily be changed to hazel by wearing coloured contact lenses.


It is not uncommon for members of a dating site to lower their age and put up a younger picture, which would explain the age discrepancy.
