Leisl Smith is missing, and her family can not get a judge's verdict

Sandi Harvey has not seen her daughter Leisl Smith since 2012.   At that time, Leisl was 23 years old. She was happy, healthy and working in her dream job caring for horses.   But it was horses that brought her into contact with James Church, a much older man with whom she fell in love.   After her disappearance, Sandi discovered Leisl's relationship with Church was one of cruelty and heartache.   Ten years after Leisl's disappearance, Sandi and the rest of her family thought they may finally be on the verge of some kind of breakthrough. But James Church had one more cruel trick up his sleeve.   We implore our listeners to join Leisl Smith's information page: https://www.facebook.com/FindLeislSmith/   If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Leisl Smith, please contact CrimeStoppers on 1800 333 000   For Support:  Lifeline  on 13 11 14   13 YARN on 13 92 76 (24/7 crisis support phone line for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples)   1800RESPECT: 1800 737 732   CREDITS: Host: Meshel Laurie.
