Cold case - Jessica Boyce
Jessica Boyce was 27 when she went missing on March 19 in 2019.
The last confirmed sighting of her was about 4pm driving west past the Woodbourne Air Force base on SH6 in her mother's red ute with a male passenger.
The ute was found three days later on the road leading to Lake Chalice in Mount Richmond Forest Park, with Boyce's broken glasses hidden inside and a necklace she reportedly never took off hanging from the rear view mirror.
A male profile of DNA on the glasses was unable to be matched, but the female DNA sample had been confirmed as Boyce's.
The case was formally upgraded to a homicide investigation in October 2019.
Boyce's body has never been found and police have offered a $100,000 reward for credible information relating to her disappearance.
