Said the following about Julie Holland:

“Julie was approached by Civil Police while on shift at the station asking her if she had seen a vulnerable suicidal male they were looking for. She said she hadn't seen him and heard the police control radio the officers with another location, they asked Julie if she knew where this was as they were not from around the area. Julie said she did know where the location was and offered to go with the police so it would be quicker as the male was near the railway line. Julie informed the station supervisor of what was happening and she left with the police. On arrival to the location, Police saw the male near to the Line and talked him away. In the meantime the male’s family turned up and Julie kept them talking, away from the male, as not to make him agitated.“
