Keith Lees, a 72-year-old man, has been charged with the long-awaited murder of his former partner, Meaghan Rose, after nearly 28 years of investigation.
The initial ruling of Meaghan Rose's death as a suicide was overturned when cold case detectives reopened the investigation in 2022, leading to significant new insights.
Policing efforts, including a $500,000 reward for information and widespread media coverage, ultimately led to the identification and arrest of Keith Lees, who had been living under an assumed name.
Det Sen Sgt Tara Kentwell emphasized that while Lees received help from various organizations, they were unaware of his true identity, demonstrating the complexities in apprehending fugitives.
