New South Wales Police are still investigating a rural property where the bodies of missing Sydney couple Luke Davies and Jesse Baird were located.

Transcript

00:00 Overnight, the bodies of Jesse and Luke were moved to the morgue and detectives will talk

00:06 to staff there today about when a post-mortem can happen.

00:09 But it's still very much an active crime scene on the ground here in Bungonia.

00:14 Police tape is up.

00:15 This area has been cordoned off since one o'clock yesterday afternoon when the bodies

00:20 were found.

00:21 This morning, several police officers and the dog squad has arrived to conduct more

00:26 line searches for any additional evidence they might find.

00:30 And yesterday we also saw Mr Baird's family come and visit the site.

00:34 They left the area around 7.30 last night.

00:37 Just an absolutely heartbreaking situation but hopefully they were able to get some closure

00:42 and I understand that the other victim's family chose not to visit the site.

00:48 Isaac, where you are at the moment in Bungonia, it's at the road where the bodies were found.

00:53 What can you tell us about the area?

00:58 Yes that's right.

00:59 So I'm a few hundred metres down from where the bodies were found.

01:01 There's an active search happening in that area at the moment.

01:04 It's very dense bushland.

01:06 It's your quintessential Australian landscape driving into any rural town.

01:10 Bungonia is a small country town, a population of between three and four hundred people.

01:16 I had the privilege of meeting some of the residents during very different circumstances

01:19 a few years ago and they're very warm, welcoming, inviting people.

01:23 So it must be very strange and harrowing for them to have one of their main roads closed

01:28 off due to an active crime scene all day and all morning.

01:31 We have seen cars, including school buses, turned around here.
