Police make further appeal in Britton cold case murder, Airlie Beach
Homicide detectives investigating the murder of Dorothy Britton at Airlie Beach in 1996 have received new information about the case since their appeal in May.
The body of the 48-year-old woman was found at 6.30pm on Thursday, 7 March 1996 in her house at Timberlands Road, Jubilee Pocket, Airlie Beach.

Our next one-way screws event is happening next week:
When: Sunday 10 June, 9.30am – 11.00am
Where: 250 Banks St, Ashgrove (Lower carpark of St Michael’s Church)
Cost: FREE!
Police will remove your number plates and re-attach them with one-way screws on the day.
Please see the below map for our location on the day.
