Wonnangatta Couple from Drouin ??

That is my bad Corndoggy. I started the thread when it looked like an accidental incident. Maybe the mods could move it now that its clearly a murder case.

Do we have a murder section?

36 pages of largely off topic discussion - there is clearly a need for a murder section!

Well they have stated that there could have been a struggle with a gun that accidentally went off and shot the female in the head. That's half way there. But I got to wonder if someone pulls out a gun in the first place and it goes off, what was the intention.

They were killed in their campsite with his shotgun. He has obviously taken his LOADED shotgun into their campsite whether there was a struggle or not. Why was it even loaded?! No safety on either. Guns don't just go off.

There is more info about to be released but it looks very suspicious. He apparently hid the bodies, repainted his car, sold his trailer and went back to burn the bodies. Can't see how you can then claim self-defense. If that were true you'd just report it, surely.

His story makes no sense either. What sort of middle-aged man gets into a struggle with a 73yo woman? You could just push her over and move on.

Plus he bought 12 bags of lime to decompose the bodies, it is alleged!
Sounds like he has gone to a lot of trouble if it were an accident
No one here has mentioned how his wife mysteriously departed the world!

If the shotgun , presumably a 12g went off during a struggle; surely there'd be injuries all round with the recoil those things give off. Not to mention the noise.
And how did the guy paint his Patrol so quick? Brush job????

My wife and i are both 73yo. and i would like to see someone try to push either of us over. As for shotgun, i doubt that.

A lot of time spent in his car talking to himself
