What Happened To Jessica Gaudie?
Season six of GUILT is taking on one of the Sunshine Coast’s most heartbreaking cases: the 1999 death of 16-year-old Burnside State High School student Jessica Gaudie.
Not only is there a search for answers for the Gaudie family, but as of 2025, there is only one thing connecting the three women who went missing from the Kenilworth area between 1998 and 1999 - Derek Bellington Sam.
A worker at the Indigenous youth centre, Piabun Farm on Booloumba Creek Road, Sam is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of Gaudie, but remains the main suspect connecting the disappearances of Celena Bridge and Sabrina Ann Glassop.
29-year-old Bridge was last seen on 16th July, 1998, on Booloumba Creek Road at Conondale.
46-year-old Glassop was last seen on the evening of 29th May, 1999 at her family home in Booloumba Creek Road, Kenilworth.
16-year-old Gaudie was last seen on the 28th August, 1999, when she left the family home to babysit Sam’s three young children who were in the care of Sam’s estranged partner.
If you lived in the Kenilworth area at the time, knew the victims, or have any information, no matter how minor it may seem, please get in touch.
“Often, it’s locals who hold the missing pieces,” Wolf says. “Whether it’s something you saw, heard, or simply felt - it could help us uncover the truth to bring closure to these families. This is a real-time investigation, and community input will directly shape the direction of the series.”
