In Alice Springs, the search for five-year-old Sharon Granites — an Aboriginal girl who vanished from her family's home at Old Timers Town Camp on a Saturday night — ended Thursday with the discovery of her body five kilometres away. What began as a missing-child emergency has become a homicide investigation, with 47-year-old Jefferson Lewis, a recently released prisoner, named by police as the suspected killer and still at large. The loss of a child is among the oldest and most shattering of human griefs, and this community now carries that weight while a manhunt continues.
