Cape Town – The trial of the missing six-year-old Joshlin Smith continues at the Western Cape High Court, with Detective Captain Wesley Lombard expected to testify further on Thursday.
Lombard, who took over the case soon after Joshlin’s disappearance, revealed on Wednesday that Joshlin’s mother, Racquel ‘Kelly’ Smith, told him her daughter was no longer in Saldanha Bay and showed no emotion about her disappearance.
According to IOL, he testified that during a February 25, 2024 interview, Kelly appeared indifferent when discussing her daughter’s disappearance, remarking, “Joshlin is out of Saldanha Bay. What is there to ask? I must go on with my life; I have two other children.”
