Leisl Smith’s sister Jerildene opens up about finally getting answers on Gary Jubelin’s podcast

Jerildene Cane joins Gary Jubelin on I Catch Killers to reflect on fighting the legal system over her sister Leisl Smith’s disappearance, and how her refusal to accept “no” might potentially change the law for other families. 

Justice was shockingly ripped from Leisl Smith’s family when her killer ended his own life. For more than 13 years, Jerildene Cane fought for answers over her little sister’s disappearance. And in September 2025, they finally got them when a coroner handed down her findings. 

Jerildene joins Gary Jubelin on this bonus episode of I Catch Killers to reflect on the unprecedented decision, fighting the legal system and how her refusal to accept “no” might potentially change the law for other families. 

Catch up on Jerildene’s past I Catch Killers podcast interviews. Part one is here, part two is here, and a bonus from the Coroner’s Court is here.
