60 Minutes Australia: The Missing Part 1 (2013)

It's almost too hard to fathom but every 15 minutes someone in Australia disappears. For the families left behind, the anguish of not knowing what's happened to their loved one, can be overwhelming. It's exactly what Lorrin Whitehead's five children are facing, eight weeks ago their 43-year-old mother left home and vanished without a trace. The police have no firm leads, there are no suspicious circumstances and for Lorrin's kids, they just want to know if their mum is ok. Reporter: Charles Wooley Producer: Steven Burling
