Information revealed in a podcast probing the shooting death of Jeffrey Brooks on a south-east Queensland farm "increased the element of motive" but failed to provide police with fresh evidence for criminal charges, an inquest has heard.
Mr Brooks was shot once in the chest with a single-barrel shotgun at a crayfish farm he worked on in Beenleigh.
At the time police ruled the 24-year-old accidentally shot himself, however in 1998 a coroner made an open finding, meaning the exact circumstances could not be determined.
