Search for remains of alleged murder victim Julian Story paused as police review CCTV footage

A search for the outstanding remains of alleged South Australian murder victim Julian Story has been paused as police review CCTV of his accused killer's movements. Former reality star Tamika Chesser, 34, was charged with the murder of her partner Story, 39, at the couple's home on the Flinders Highway in Port Lincoln on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula. Chesser remains in the mental health facility James Nash House and is yet to be interviewed by police.

After several days of a land and sea search for Story's head, SA police today confirmed the search has been suspended. Police said efforts are now focused on identifying CCTV at locations crucial to the investigation. SA Police Commissioner Grant Stevens mentioned the importance of utilizing CCTV footage and urged anyone with relevant information to come forward.

Story's body was found without his head after police responded to a small fire in the yard of the house on June 19. Chesser was arrested at the scene. Detective Superintendent Darren Fielke emphasized the need to locate Story's head and called for public assistance in tracking Chesser's movements.

Major Crime detectives have released images of the clothing Chesser was wearing around June 19 to aid in the investigation. Story's family expressed gratitude towards the authorities and the community for their support during this difficult time.
