New search efforts underway for Beaumont children

A new search for the Beaumont children, who disappeared from Glenelg beach in 1966, is set to commence at the former Castalloy foundry, where it is believed they were kidnapped and murdered by owner Harry Phipps. This investigation follows the discovery of fresh evidence and aims to explore both previously excavated sites and a new location before the area undergoes development. The search, which will involve large earthmoving equipment, is expected to last about a week, with hopes that it may finally provide answers to the long-standing mystery. Frank Pangallo, an independent MP involved in organizing the dig, emphasized its significance as potentially the last chance to explore the site. Eyewitness accounts and photographic evidence indicate changes to the soil at the site, prompting renewed interest in the area. The Beaumonts' parents reported their children left home with sixpence, yet a shopkeeper recalled Jane making a purchase with a larger sum, adding to the case's complexities.
