Happy Tuesday Productions

Topics: True Crime

It was early 1980 when Elaine Johnson left her family home in southern Sydney. The eldest of five children, Elaine had lived in Kurnell and Cronulla after her family moved to Australia from the UK as Ten Pound Poms. She grew up riding bikes, sunbaking and watching Monty Python on TV. In the weeks leading up to her disappearance, Elaine left home after an argument over a house party. It is believed she stayed with her friend, Kerry Anne Joel. Neither Elaine nor Kerry has been seen since February 1980. For more than 40 years, Elaine’s family has been searching for answers. This is their story.
