Circumstances of Disappearance
Marion was last seen on 24 January 1980 at Cammeray. She left a handwritten note to her brother saying she had met some friends and would be back to their shared home within a week. She never came home. Sandford was a 23-year-old New Zealand citizen living with her brother at Cammeray, on Sydney's north shore, when she vanished.

At the time of her disappearance Ms Sandford was known to police with a record for possession and use of heroin. Police have not ruled out a possible link with the Mr Asia drug syndicate, led by a New Zealand-born career criminal, which in the 1970s trafficked heroin into New Zealand.
