Summary

Ray and Jennie Kehlet's much loved Great Dane, Ella, wandered alone and dehydrated into a caravan park in Sandstone, WA in March 2015.


The phone calls that resulted from local police scanning Ella's microchip alerted both Ray and Jennie's families to the fact that something had gone terribly wrong during their latest adventure.


Eight years and one inquest later, many questions still remain.


Ray's brother Dave joins us on this episode of Australian True Crime to tell us the story of the last eight years from his perspective.


There is currently a two million dollar reward for information on Ray's death and Jennie's disappearance. If you have any information, you can contact Crime Stoppers at their website, or on 1800 333 000
