Falconio: Mechanic accused of tourist's murder
A mechanic was in an Australian court today charged with the murder nearly three years ago of a British man who disappeared from a lonely Outback highway leaving only a pool of his blood on the road.
The disappearance and suspected killing of Peter Falconio, who has not been seen since he stopped his camper van for another motorist and apparently was murdered on July 14, 2001, is one of Australia’s most mysterious unsolved crimes.
