The sister of a missing man who vanished without a trace has revealed how years of mystery phone calls gave her hope her beloved brother was still alive - but they were in fact from a cruel prisoner taunting the family.
Daniel 0 Keeffe, 24, disappeared from his family s home in Geelong south-west of Melbourne on the morning of July 15, 2011 without any personal belongings, his wallet or identification.
He had been suffering from depression and anxiety before he disappeared.
His older sister Loren O Keeffe quit her job and dedicated five agonising years leading a public appeal until his body was discovered by his father Des in a cavity on the side of a hill alongside the family property in March 2016.
