The police officer who rescued missing girl Cleo Smith has returned to the home where she was found as the investigation into whether her alleged abductor acted alone continues.
Detective Senior Sergeant Cameron Blaine toured Terrance Kelly’s home for the first time since he carried four-year-old Cleo out of it in the early hours of the morning last Wednesday.
It comes as West Australia Police dismissed reports Cleo told them a woman helped care for her and brushed her hair as their probe heats up into whether a second person was involved in the alleged abduction.
