Toyah Cordingley (Re-Release)

"Finding her body has burnt an indelible image in my mind. It is something a father should never have to suffer."

On the morning of 22 October 2018, family and friends of missing 24-year-old Toyah Cordingley would scour the area around Wangetti Beach, a quiet and secluded stretch of sand not too far away from Toyah's hometown of Cairns.
