Leisl Smith's sister reflects on moment she discovered heartbreaking news

At 23, Leisl Smith had her whole life in front of her. But her ex boyfriend, James Scott Church, had other ideas. Six years after she went missing, he was charged with her murder. After a gruelling 13-week trial, there are still no answers. Why? Because Church took his own life a day before the verdict was due to be made public - locking the judge’s verdict away forever. Jerildene Cane is hoping to change that, and bring closure to her family.
