When 26-year-old school teacher Stephanie Scott disappeared days before her wedding, her fiance immediately knew something was wrong. She wasn’t the type of person to vanish without a trace, or get cold feet. An immense manhunt was swiftly organised with locals of the small town of Leeton, where Stephanie lived. It would be a devastating four days until Stephanie’s fiance and family were given the worst possible news. In this episode, we speak with Leeton local Monique Patterson who was one of the journalists who covered Stephanie’s disappearance.  She has since written a book on the case of Stephanie Scott, titled; ‘United In Grief: The Tragic Story of Stephanie Scott's Murder and the Effect it had on the Small Town of Leeton NSW’.  CREDITS Guest: Monique Patterson, author of United In Grief Host: Jessie Stephens Producerandeditor: Elise Cooper RESEARCH United In Grief: The Tragic Story of Stephanie Scott's Murder and the Effect it had on the Small Town of Leeton NSW, book by Monique Patterson, https://bit.ly/34klKNJ  Stephanie Scott Missing, 7 News Sydney https://bit.ly/2VaEbjN  Man charged with murder of missing NSW teacher, SBS world News, https://bit.ly/2XjFkZi  Stephanie Scott Murder Arrest, 9 News Adelaide  https://bit.ly/3e5Rgna Stephanie Scott Murder timeline, SBS News https://bit.ly/3e3PDGy CONTACT US Tell us what you think of the show via email at truecrime@mamamia.com.au.
