Duke, who drove to Murgon to pick up his dog, tossed the wet hat into bushes without realizing McLennan was missing. Later, when McLennan vanished, Duke helped police locate the hat and clarified he had McLennan’s car keys left behind. Amid swirling online rumors, Duke insists he had no role in the disappearance and has never been named by police. He revealed they’d visited Wondai twice that day to buy meth, and McLennan vanished after Duke turned away briefly—then searched in vain with a torch. Only McLennan’s trainers and wallet have been found; his phone, clothes, and remains are still missing. Duke, haunted by their drug use that night, hopes sharing his story brings closure to McLennan’s family and clears his name. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
