CCTV. Crowds. Security guards. How can a woman simply disappear from a city shopping centre and there be no witnesses, no footage, no answers? Her name is Monique Clubb. She was only 24. Monique was a proud Aboriginal woman from Hervey Bay in Queensland. She went for a trip to Brisbane - and never came home. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women are more likely to be deliberately disappeared in Australia than the rest of us. And when their families report their missing loved ones to police, their cases are almost always under investigated.
