William Tyrrell was a three-year-old boy who disappeared from the township of Kendall on the mid-north-coast of New South Wales on 12 September 2014. William was in foster care when he went missing: his foster Mum has said he was there one minute, and gone the next. No trace of him has ever been found. The five-year investigation has torn the NSW homicide squad apart, with allegations of misconduct, mistakes, and miscalculations. We chose the title Nowhere Child: Missing William Tyrrell carefully. William is missing. He's also missed.
