00:00Two lawyers at the centre of a case that police have declared a major crime.
00:07Mr Isaacs, are you expecting your plan to be charged?
00:10Actually being formally charged?
00:11We don't have any information on any of that, so no problem.
00:14With police investigations changing course over the disappearance of four-year-old Gus Lamont,
00:20his grandparents, Josie and Shannon Murray, have lawyered up.
00:23Do you understand this is a very high-profile situation?
00:26I do, yeah.
00:27In a statement, the grandparents say they're absolutely devastated by police comments
00:32and had cooperated fully with the investigation,
00:35adding they want nothing more than to find Gus and reunite him with his mum and dad.
00:40It's been four months since the boy was last seen on his family's remote Oak Park sheep station near Yunta,
00:46about 350 kilometres north of Adelaide.
00:49Police revealed on Thursday they'd identified a suspect,
00:52saying it's not one of Gus's parents, but another person who lives at the station.
00:56Initially, the dominating thought would have been he wandered off,
01:01but that is not to say, and I know from first-hand experience,
01:04that is not to say that those other avenues or explanations were not in the back of the police mind.
01:09I think it's more likely that charges may be laid soon.
01:12Locals in Peterborough and Yunta say they're saddened by the latest developments.
01:16Many hope the new police focus will bring answers.
01:19It's just tragic.
01:20You know, in a small place like that, somebody knows something.
01:23They can't even know where he is or find him.
01:26We wouldn't mind a bit of closure.
01:28Hopes for an answer to a months-long tragedy.
01:31I think they do not know where we go at all.
01:34What's going on for them?
01:36What else?
01:37What?
01:38Oh, my God.
01:39You're a lucky hunter.
01:40I saw a problem with Ynez.
01:41It's not a bad person.
01:42What else?
01:43It was a bad person to hear from you to his parents.
01:45What do you mean?
01:46I can't even see them on the other side of the day.
01:47What?
01:48What are your friends and friends andت?
01:49I can't see them in their eyes,
01:50and they're not too late and they're too late.
