STORY:
An aboriginal elder claimed to have seen the location of the body of a missing six-year-old in her dream. Unexpectedly, she led police to a torso believed to belong to another missing person—a woman from Sydney.
一位原住民长者声称:她曾在梦中看过一名失踪的6岁孩童遗体的位置。没想到,她带领警察找到的却是属于另一名悉尼失踪女子的躯干。

[Pamela Young, Homicide Squad]: “It’s very sad to say that an adult female torso has been located where the witnesses said there was a body."
[帕梅拉杨,凶案组]:“我必需很悲哀地说,一个成年女性的尸体确实已在一个目击者说的地方找到。”

Police confirmed that they had contacted the family of a missing Sydney woman, Kristi McDougall, but did not confirm if the body was hers. McDougall went missing on June 19.
警方证实,他们已联络一名失踪悉尼妇女克里斯蒂麦克杜格尔的家人,但未确认是否是她的遗体。麦克杜格尔在 6月19日时失踪。

Forensic teams carried out post-mortem examinations.
法医小组正在进行验尸中。

[Pamela Young, Homicide Squad]:
[帕梅拉杨,凶案组]:(英文)
“A woman, she had a sense or a feeling that it was worth her while to come to this particular part of the park… It is quite unusual circumstances that brought us here, that she would think that initially and then we actually find a body."
“有一位妇女,她意识到或感觉到她应该来公园的这个区块…在非常罕见的情况下,把我们带到这里来,最初是她认为这样,但我们却真的找到一具尸体。”

Cheryl Carrol-Lagerwey, a local aboriginal elder, led police officers to the location where, she believed, they were going to find the body of young Kiesha Abrahams.
这位本地原住民长者叫谢里尔卡罗尔-劳格文,她带领警务人员到她相信会发现年轻的纪沙亚伯拉罕尸体的位置。

Six-year-old Abrahams went missing from her bed while her mother and stepfather were watching TV in the living room almost two weeks ago.
6岁的亚伯拉罕两个星期前,当母亲和继父都在客厅看电视时,在床上失踪。

Carrol-Lagerwey says she was not a psychic but claimed that she had seen the location in her dream.
卡罗尔-劳格文表示,她没有特异功能,但声称她梦中看到了这个地方。

[Cheryl Carrol-Lagerwey, Aboriginal Elder]:
“I don’t know, it’s not psychic, it’s inside you – if you have a near death experience, yeah, it’s in you."
[谢里尔卡罗尔-劳格文,原住民长者]:
“我不知道,这不是精神有问题,它是你的本能。如果你有一个濒死经验,是啊,它就存在你身上。”

Police investigations are continuing on the Abrahams case although there have been no developments so far.
警方对亚伯拉罕案件的调查仍在进行中,虽然至今仍无进展。
