11 Days Ago, Ballarat woman Samantha Murphy went out for a jog and never came home. 

There's been CCTV footage looked at, extensive search parties through local bushland and endless pleas for any information and yesterday police ruled the disappearance as suspicious. 

In this episode, we speak with a local Ballarat woman who shares many of the same running routes as Samantha about how the community is feeling, and how the women are banding together to watch each other's backs.
