Further the reporter Ian Alleyne on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 went to the home where Bambi located at Sugar Road, off Cipero Road, Bronte, twice, for talking but after he noticed that someone had come to meet him, he immediately ran into the bushes.

Bambi also breached a protection order imposed by the court, continuously three times over a two month period, and was denied bail before the court.

The police officials also went to his home after being reported by the residents that they saw him with the girl but when he noticed police were coming to his house he fled again.

Later, the uncle of the deceased ‘Bambi’ admitted on the phone that he was with Mariah and both were walking towards the track before she was found dead, but he strictly denied his involvement in her death.

Also when the authorities asked that if he was not involved in the death of the girl and if he was innocent then why did he flee twice?, but he remained silent and gave no response to the question asked.

Authorities claimed that they are doing their best to find out the suspect in the death of a 12-year-old girl. And they also stated that they are investigating the matter very seriously. Along with this the ex-brother-in-law of Mariah's dad, her uncle is still on the run and they are trying to locate him.
