I haven’t seen her today at all. It’s very early in the morning. But the police commissioner confirmed, as has everyone who’s met little Cleo, that she’s an extraordinary little girl, full of energy and love, and the family are all back together again, which is a wonderful thing.
Look, it wasn’t a random tip or a clairvoyant or any of the sort of things … that you might hear. It was just hard police grind. There were a huge number of officers involved in this taskforce, more than 140.
They sifted through all manner of information and some analysts in Perth, in particular, brought together a few different elements of their investigation and ended up with this result where they rescued Cleo from the house and also, at about the same time, arrested the individual concerned.
I couldn’t be more proud. Everyone in Western Australia is. And everyone around the country should be.
