What could be more heartbreaking than killing a child?
A few days ago, a heartbreaking case took place in Sydney: a 68-year-old Sydney father, because of marital discord, his son and daughter did not want to communicate with him, so simply put up a gun to kill them.
According to the Daily Mail, Sydney Morning Frontier and ABC News, the killer's name is John Edwards, a Sydney-based financial planner.
At around 5:20 on July 5, he shot his 15-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter in West Pennant Hills's house. The two children fell instantly in the pool of blood in the bedroom, and the scene was very tragic.
On Friday morning, police found the body of Edwards's suicide in Normanhurst's house, along with two guns used by Edwards the day before to murder's own child.
Police said Edwards was forced to separate from his children because of marital discord, so they thought it was a premeditated murder.
On the night of July 5, police received reports of two gunshots coming from Sydney's West Pennant Hills. When the police arrived, they found a boy and a girl lying in the bedroom.
The boy kept his hand on the girl next to him, and the police thought his brother was trying to protect his sister before he died. Unfortunately, his efforts did not succeed, both brothers and sisters were eventually killed by their own father.
The children's mother, a 36-year-old Russian lawyer, later arrived, but she was instantly pale. After that, she received psychological guidance under the escort of a friend.
It is reported that the brother and sister killer Edwards and the mother of the child have been separated for a long time, before he had three marriages, but not for long. After separation, the children once said to their psychiatrist that they did not want to have too much contact with their father. Perhaps because of the hatred, Edwards had a killing.
Edwards's neighbor said, "he's a strange man who never says hello to us." We say hello to him and he won't respond. He's a little antisocial. "
