❤️HER NAME IS SHARON FULTON❤️
For just over 40 years, her children and other loved ones have been waiting for answers and to lay her to rest.
This week, their journey reached a fork in the road – one direction signalled a major milestone – the sentencing of her killer – and the other signals the continuation of their fight to bring their mum home.

Her name is Sharon Fulton. Sharon was murdered by her husband Raymond Reddington (aka Robert Fulton) about March 18, 1986. She was only 39.
Exactly 40 years and 12 days after Sharon disappeared, Reddington was sentenced to life for her murder. Sharon’s body remain missing.
Sharon was to attend a party on her last day. She dropped one of her children at a place in Wangara and that was the last time she was seen by anyone except her killer.
Three days after she disappeared Reddington went to police and begun the web of lies that would help shield him for decades.
He told them he dropped Sharon with an overnight bag at the East Perth train station. In a media interview he claimed Sharon was the victim of serial killers.
Sharon sought legal advice about leaving him and seeking sole custody of her children. She feared he would kill her, telling one person she would ‘end up six feet under’. She also told another person he would hire someone to harm her.
Reddington took out an insurance policy on Sharon’s life in the weeks before he murdered her.
At first, police failed to identify any evidence to support a suspected homicide even though they had statements from multiple people about the risks to Sharon.
In 2006, the Special Crime Squad decided her disappearance was suspicious but it wasn’t until 2017 that Reddington was interviewed by police.
His sentencing this weeks means Reddington will die in jail. Before that happens though, Sharon’s loved ones hold out hope he will tell them where her body is.
Sharon’s son Heath spoke to media after the sentencing.
“We have much still left to do in trying to find our mother,” he said.
“That’s our priority … that search for her final resting place.
“It’s the ultimate and it’s the only thing we pretty much live for — to bring her home.”
