REWARD:
The Minister for Police and Corrective Services has approved a reward of $250,000 be offered for information which leads to the apprehension and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the murder of Annette Jane MASON at Toowoomba on 19 November 1989.
INDEMNITY FROM PROSECUTION:
In addition, an appropriate indemnity from prosecution will be recommended for any accomplice, not being the person who actually committed the crime, who first gives such information.
The allocation of the $250,000 reward will be at the sole discretion of the Commissioner of the Police Service.
CIRCUMSTANCES:
At 2.10 pm on Sunday 19 November 1989 the body of Annette Jane MASON was located in the front bedroom of her residence at 131 Anzac Avenue, Toowoomba. The cause of death was from head injuries inflicted by a non-metallic object. A piece of timber was located in the laundry of the residence. The severity of the injuries sustained by the victim would have rendered her unconscious from the time they were inflicted. Although some of the deceased's clothing had been removed, there was no evidence of sexual assault. Ms MASON was last seen alive at 3.30 am that morning when she arrived home alone in a taxi.
