Inside alleged cop killer Dezi Freeman’s Porepunkah home

New images of the caravan home where accused cop killer Dezi Freeman lived with his family have been revealed, as authorities prepare to begin a fourth week searching for the fugitive.

Freeman, 56, is accused of fatally shooting policemen Neal Thompson and Vadim de Waart-Hottart at a property in Porepunkah, about 300km northeast of Melbourne, on Tuesday, August 26, before escaping into bushland.

Now, 7NEWS has obtained vision from inside Freeman’s property. It is the first time the crime scene has been seen in such detail.

All sorts of items are strewn across the property. There’s a sink full of dishes, boxes overflowing with electrical cords and a shipping container filled with old suitcases.

A family of four had been living inside the caravan, extended with marquees, before Freeman is accused of shooting dead the two police officers.

The major manhunt to find him remains ongoing, with police lifting a travel warning for the area on Sunday.

Businesses and locals whose lives have been turned upside down by the search are breathing a small sigh of relief, with cash help on the way.

Businesses that lost money during the search became eligible for $5000 grants on Monday.

The $2.5 million state government assistance package includes money for the local council, chamber of commerce and a marketing campaign to entice visitors back.

Cherry Walk Café owner Leanne Boyd described nearby Bright as a “ghost town” for the past three weeks, with the “unprecedented situation” leaving many businesses without any income.

Boyd said the empty streets were eerily similar to 2019-20, when the Black Summer bushfires brought the Alpine tourist mecca to a standstill.

Local member Tim McCurdy estimated traders in Bright were down 70 to 80 per cent.

Mount Buffalo National Park remains closed.

Victoria Police Acting Deputy Commissioner Russell Barrett said the decision to lift some restrictions struck a balance based on the community’s reliance on tourism.

“We need to work with them to ensure their livelihoods aren’t being impacted by what is a massive search,” he told Nova radio Melbourne on Monday.

The change in restrictions comes days after Victoria Police conducted the largest tactical police operation in Australia’s history, with more than 125 specialist officers from interstate and New Zealand.

Police refused to say whether the search uncovered any sign of Freeman or evidence he had been in the area since the shootings.

A $1 million reward is being offered for information leading to his capture - the largest financial reward for aiding an arrest in Victoria’s history.
