A Queensland man who murdered his wife and stepdaughter more than 20 years ago has had his parole bid rejected for failing to help investigators find the remains of one of his victims.
Cherry, 62, was found guilty of killing 35-year-old Annette Cherry and 18-year-old Kira Guise in 2002 and sentenced to life in prison.
Kira's body has never been found, but he allegedly confessed her murder to another inmate.
Convicted killers in Queensland cannot be paroled if through their act or omission a victim's body has not been located.
The Parole Board met to consider Cherry's parole application six times from May 25 last year to July 12.
Cherry submitted to the board his belief that he was wrongly convicted and that he gave satisfactory co-operation to authorities in 1999/2000.
But on Tuesday the board decided Cherry "has not given satisfactory co-operation in the investigation of the homicide offence to identify his victim's location".
Cherry killed his wife in Roma around June 6, 1997, after she reported him to police for having a sexual relationship with Kira.
Cherry supplied a gun to Debbie, then aged 19, and told her to shoot her mother dead, which she did.
He killed Kira about two years later to stop her telling police what she knew about her mother's murder.
Cherry later told an inmate he killed Kira because she "couldn't keep her mouth shut like her mother".
Debbie Maree Guise was found guilty of manslaughter in 1998. She served four years in prison before being granted parole.
Cherry unsuccessfully tried to appeal his murder convictions in 2004 and again in 2014.
