A grieving family is seeking answers after their son’s body was returned from Bali following his mysterious death, with a crucial organ missing.
The FIFO worker had hoped to unwind during a fun vacation, but in May, his body was discovered in the plunge pool of his villa.
His untimely death marked the beginning of a long, distressing search for answers by his heartbroken family.
Bryon’s family demanded an investigation, which significantly delayed the return of his remains to Noosa.
His mother, Chantal, expressed to 9News her belief that something suspicious occurred.
“I feel like there was foul play,” she stated.
When his body finally was brought home, a horrifying discovery made in a second autopsy by the Queensland coroner.
“They just rung us to ask if we were aware that his heart was retained over in Bali,” Chantal said.
“It was another kick in the guts.”
It remains unclear why Byron’s organ was removed.
It was only sent back to Australia months after his funeral and burial.
The results of a local autospy report are still pending.
Meanwhile, Chantal is still coming to terms with her devastating loss.
“He was just so full of life,” she added.
