Police have found a body believed to be that of accused triple murderer Julian Ingram in the state’s central west.
Ingram was last seen leaving Lake Cargelligo shortly after allegedly shooting his former partner Sophie Quinn, 25, her friend John Harris, 32, and her aunt Nerida Quinn, 50, on January 22.
Police on Monday located what is believed to be the Lachlan Shire Council ute Ingram was seen leaving town in.
A body, believed to be the 37-year-old’s, was found with the vehicle at Mount Hope, about an hour from Lake Cargelligo.
Police conducted large-scale searches of Mount Hope and surrounds after reported sightings of Ingram in the area in the days after the shootings.
The remains of the body are yet to be formally identified.
Ingram, also known as Julian Pierpoint, was last seen leaving Lake Cargelligo shortly after the shootings. He was seen heading north towards Euabalong, a nearby town of about 80 people where he was raised and had lived until about a decade ago, according to locals.
Several sightings of Ingram were reported in the days after the shootings, including at Mount Hope.
“I’m sad because I’ll never get justice,” Mikaila Elms, Nerida Quinn’s daughter, told this masthead.
“It just leaves us wondering.”
