It's very disheartening. Although they say they are keeping all options open and nobody's accused of anything

Well it suggests they think she perhaps didn’t go missing from the tent and something happened to her in the house instead?

well the best outcome is they find out as quickly as possible isn't it? think its quite clear the child has come to harm somewhere....and statistically the most likely place is at home

hope they get to the bottom of this soon

I think its disheartening because it suggests they have little to go on at the scene. They are digging as deep as they can to find something that might lead them forward. With nothing else at the scene the biggest connection to Cleo is at her home, so they look there. Doesn’t necessarily mean they suspect she went missing from there, just that they have nothing else to go on, yet.

She was on cctv right near the campsite during the holiday with her family. I don't think there is evidence that her family are involved. At this stage it looks like a horrific abduction.

I am in WA they really are leaving no stone un-turned. One reason given for searching the house is that they are trying to find evidence that Cleo was stalked. I was in Perth CBD yesterday and there were missing posters everywhere, I've also seen car bumper stickers. I really hope they find her, but the longer it takes the worse it looks.

They’ve just found her alive.
I’m speechless.

I've just seen. It's lovely. I'm so pleased for her parents I just hope she's okay as can be.

It's amazing! I've cried at the news reports.

Oh my god. Never expected them to find her alive. Wonderful.
