Season 1, Ep. 337
•
This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
Tina Louise Greer, 32, went missing from her Beechmont home in Queensland, January 18, 2012.
She had gone to visit her ex boyfriend, a Finks bikie by the name of Les "Grumpy" Sharman, and has not been seen since.
Despite being listed by a Queensland coroner and police as the primary suspect in Tina's disappearance, Les Sharman was never formally questioned by police. He then died in a car crash in 2018.
Our guest for today's episode, Tina's daughter Lili, was 13 when her mother went missing. Now, as a young adult, Lili has been relentless in her fight to advocate for her mother and other families like theirs.
Through Lili's advocacy, a coronial inquest has been announced into her mother's disappearance for August 2023.
If you have any information in regards to the disappearance of Tina Greer, contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or on their website
