Outback murder girl denies secret relationship

Defence lawyers in the Australian Outback hearing into the death of Briton Peter Falconio today attacked the credibility of Joanne Lees claiming she was having another, perhaps secret, relationship when her boyfriend disappeared three years ago.

Lees today returned to the witness stand in Darwin to resume evidence in the committal hearing for Bradley John Murdoch, 45, the man accused of the British tourist’s murder.
