NSW Police have announced a renewed appeal for information into the murders of three children from Bowraville in the early 1990s, as detectives focus on locating the remains of 16-year-old Colleen Walker-Craig.

Colleen disappeared from a party in Bowraville on September 13, 1990.

Her body was never found, though her clothes were later recovered from the Nambucca River.

Two other children, Clinton Speedy-Duroux, 16, and Evelyn Greenup, 4, Colleen’s cousin, were also killed in the small Mid North Coast town within months of her disappearance.

Colleen Walker-Craig is a missing person last seen in Bowraville, aged 16 in 1990.

Evelyn’s remains were discovered in bushland in April 1991, while Clinton’s body was found nearby in February 1991.

Despite a man being charged twice with two of the murders, he was acquitted.
