William Tyrrell, the Australian boy who disappeared in 2014 at age three, has not been found. The investigation has evolved to police theory suggesting he died in an accident at his foster grandmother's house, after which his foster mother panicked and disposed of his body in nearby bushland. Despite extensive searches, no physical evidence or remains have been located. The foster mother is now facing charges related to perverting the course of justice. New allegations suggest he might be buried near a landmark called the "Bird Tree" on the NSW Mid North Coast, but this has not been confirmed by police. The case remains unresolved with ongoing investigations as of 2025.
