There has been a further development in this story.
The woman who found the body was an Aboriginal elder, Cheryl Lagerwey
Elders in Australian Aboriginal culture are the most respected in their various tribes and are regarded as the persons with the most wisdom needed to guide people through life and advise on various difficulties encountered along this journey we are on.
A examination of Australian Indigenous beliefs reveals a remarkable number of similarities with the beliefs of Spiritualism.
There is possibly one difference. Elders are not those who seek publicity or have a desire to profit from their wisdom.
One aspect of this remarkable story is that Cheryl Lagerwey did not seek publicity or speak to the media. Her name was released by the police as is their normal practice to keep the public notified of movements in an investigation. Police took Ms Lagerwey's claim very seriously when she contacted them and travelled to the spot she had located and discovered the body.
How pleasing to know that in our police force who protect us there are those who believe strongly enough in what sometimes is not so apparent in a material sense.
There is a large Indigenous community in the Mount Druitt area where the body was found and it is a credit to the NSW Police that they are wiling to pay respect to their local community in this way.
