New footage of convicted killer Bradley John Murdoch has been released by police on the 25th anniversary of Peter Falconio’s death in a renewed push to find the British backpacker’s body.Murdoch was serving a life sentence for the murder of the Mr Falconio, when he died from throat cancer on July 15 last year.The 67-year-old was found guilty of murder in 2005 and was sentenced to life in jail with a non-parole period of 28 years.He never revealed where Mr Falconio had been buried and continued to deny his part in the murder right up until his death.Police interviewed Murdoch in prison shortly before he died and have released bodycam footage worn by one of the officers who tried to get information from the convicted killer on the whereabouts of Mr Falconio’s body.“Don’t know anything about it, okay,” Murdoch yells at the officer.“You’ve been told that answer, right, move on next one.“Don’t beat around the bush, I’m just going to cut you short every time, okay, I know nothing. Know nothing.“I’ve said this for 22 years, I know nothing, you keep asking these questions, I know nothing.“I am not thinking about it, I thought about it for 22 f--king years.”Murdoch told the officer he said the same story about Mr Falconio’s death over and over for more than two decades.“Now you’re here at the last minute because I’m f--king dying,” he shouted.“Who gives a f--k about me, well some people to do.“I don’t have information, this is what I’m trying to say to you, I don’t have this information.“Just get this over and done with, for f--ks sake.” Mr Falconio had been travelling with his girlfriend Joanne Lees in a Kombi van along the Sturt Highway, north of Barrow Creek between Darwin and Alice Springs, when another car stopped alongside them and motioned to them to pull over.When the Kombi van pulled over, Murdoch shot Mr Falconio in the head.Murdoch then tried to kidnap Ms Lees, pulling her out of the van and binding her wrists with cable ties before forcing her in the back of his vehicle.While Murdoch went back to his vehicle, Ms Lees managed to escape and hid in the bushes for several hours before she flagged down another driver.Murdoch maintained his innocence throughout the trial and twice tried to overturn the convictions, but both attempts were unsuccessful.He would have been eligible for parole in 2032, but the NT’s introduction of “no body, no parole” laws in 2016 meant he would only have been released if he revealed the location of Mr Falconio’s body.Police increased a reward of $250,000 to $500,000 last year in the hope that someone with information that leads directly to the discovery of Mr Falconio’s remains comes forward.Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
