The 49-year-old builder's disappearance sparked 'Operation Renovation' - which saw Police search several homes and sift through thousands of tonnes of rubbish at the Kate Valley Landfill.
Today, a 51-year-old man has been charged with his murder.
Detective Inspector Kylie Shaare says the arrest is a 'big step forward' and while she knows his family was realistic in the fact they weren't going to find McGrath alive - she's sure they were holding on to a little bit of hope.
Police are yet to find Michael McGrath's body.
