A young woman, 18-year-old Lily Hooper, was found dead in the rugged bushland of Nattai National Park after an eight-day, massive search involving over a thousand volunteers and the Australian Defence Force. Missing since August 12th after going for a hike, her body was discovered Thursday amid treacherous terrain and harsh weather — a heartbreaking discovery that briefly led to false hope when her family was misled into thinking she’d been found alive. Police have since apologized for the error, and a post-mortem is now underway.
