A quest for closure continues for a family in Caboolture as they call for a full coronial inquest into the mysterious disappearance of Sandrine Jourdan. The family has launched a change.org petition, pressing for a deeper investigation into her case’s events.
Nakita Bull, who was only 12 when her mother vanished, has been a driving force behind the renewed push for answers. The Queensland coroner’s office has reopened the case, evaluating whether new evidence warrants a full inquest. This decision has rekindled hope for the family, who urge anyone with information, however minor it may seem, to come forward.
The case has gained renewed attention thanks to a podcast by Redcliffe’s Graeme Crowley, a retired police detective, and an “Under Investigation” episode with Liz Hayes aired earlier this year. These platforms have played a crucial role in encouraging individuals to share information, adding new leads to the investigation.
Sandrine Jourdan was last seen on July 13, 2012, at a property owned by a friend on Tomlinson Rd, Caboolture. Twelve years later, her family remains steadfast in their search for truth. Nakita and her older siblings, Sam and Jessie, and other family members continue to seek closure.
A 2016 coroner’s report delivered an open finding suggesting Sandrine’s disappearance was likely a suicide. Her family, however, strongly disputes this conclusion. Despite Sandrine’s mental health struggles, Nakita insists her mother was planning for the future and would not have willingly left her family behind.
The Jourdan family’s resolve is evident as the anniversary of Sandrine’s disappearance approaches. They implore the public to come forward with any details that might shed light on what happened. Nakita’s belief in the power of community support is unwavering, and the family remains hopeful that new information will surface.
Nakita describes her mother as a free spirit; Nakita recalls Sandrine’s friendly nature and deep dedication to her children. Despite her struggles, Sandrine was organised, keeping detailed journal entries until her disappearance. Nakita emphasises that mental health issues do not define a person entirely, and it is inconceivable to her family that Sandrine would have taken her own life.
Sandrine Jourdan’s family’s journey for answers continues as they strive to uncover the truth and the closure they desperately seek.
