Josie Murray has spoken publicly for the first time since her grandson August "Gus" Lamont disappeared from Oak Park Station last September. Though the 75-year-old revealed she believes Gus is alive, she had stopped cooperating with detectives months after the case was declared a major crime. In an emotional and candid interview with 7NEWS Reporter Hannah Foord, Murray now has a message for the public and the authorities.
