A diary entry about an old cattle trailer led Det Con Tom Ryan to solve the six-year disappearance and murder of Richard Dyson, who vanished from a farm in 2019. Christopher Wright was convicted of murder and sentenced to 35 years, while Karl Schwalbe received three years for perverting the course of justice. The diary entry provided the crucial breakthrough in a case where police had long suspected the two men but lacked a body or definitive proof.
