Peter Falconio murder 25 years on: new footage shows dying Australian outback killer's refusal to reveal body's location

The former British government expert who consulted on the search for the remains of the murdered backpacker Peter Falconio says he has now identified a most likely" potential burial location - an abandoned racetrack only 8km from the scene of the infamous outback attack at Barrow Creek.

In July 2001, Falconio and his partner, Joanne Lees, both from Yorkshire, were ambushed and attacked by Bradley John Murdoch as they drove along a remote stretch of road in Australia's Northern Territory, about 300km north of Alice Springs.
