Catching Lisa's Killer

By: The West Australian
  • Summary

  • Murder, bikies and a small town’s secrets: the story of Lisa Govan’s disappearance from Kalgoorlie delves into the dark underbelly of the Aussie outback.

    Lisa Govan was last seen outside a bikie clubhouse in 1999, her body has never been found and no arrests made.

    Reporters Natalie Bonjolo and Ben Harvey’s true crime investigations took them back in time, to a place of bikies, skimpies, gold, legalised prostitution, drugs, big pubs and tough cops.

    The Kalgoorlie that Lisa disappeared from was the genuine wild west.

    Now, Police hope a Coroner’s inquest can break the bikie code of silence which has suffocated investigations, to finally solve the twenty-five-year-old mystery

    Join Natalie and Ben as they dissect the day’s events from court in Catching Lisa’s Killer; The Inquest.

  • Catching Lisa’s Killer: The Inquest – Day 6
    Dec 10 2024

    A surprise witness at the inquest into the disappearance of Lisa Govan generated some unexpected drama, four weeks after the inquiry was adjourned. The former boyfriend of the missing Kalgoorlie woman left abusive messages on her phone and threw away the clothes he had been wearing when she vanished. In a series of revelations, Tim Hammel said he was unhappy that his “de facto wife” had been out drinking while he was working a night shift at the super pit gold mine, admitted being friends with Gypsy Joker bikies and claimed he would have “kicked down the door” of the Club Deroes clubhouse had he known his girlfriend was there.

The stunning testimony also revealed for the first time that Lisa Govan had previously visited the Club Deroes’ headquarters several times before.
