Shyanne Lee-Tatnell's accused murderer likely to face trial next year

A court trial for Christopher Mark Jordan, accused of murdering 14-year-old Shyanne-Lee Tatnell in 2023, is expected to take place in early 2027. Jordan, who has pleaded not guilty, appeared via video link from prison during a court hearing. The prosecution indicated readiness to proceed with a trial in April 2027, four years after his arrest. The case involves 14 volumes of legal documents, and a case management hearing is scheduled for August 4. Shyanne-Lee's body was discovered nearly three months after she went missing from a Launceston youth hostel, leading to Jordan's arrest the following day.
