    As an unarmed security guard, I know the correct answer for the security guard is "Stop, or I'll observe and report!"

    Sleep deprivation really is a form of torture. My babies woke very frequently for feedings and changings. I didn't get much sleep, and after months of this, I felt I was going crazy. I cried, I was super emotional, even small things felt like more than I could handle. I don't think people truly give enough credit to how much sleep deprivation affects women who are already trying to heal from a major event (birth), and are expected to care for an infant and maintain the house and cooking at the same time. It is insane. There is no village anymore.

    Born and bred in Australia circa 1958. Some of the most famous murders in Australia from that time are the Beaumont disappearances, assumed murders, and the Wanda Beach murders. In all my life, until today, I had never heard of the Crawford family murders, and given the details, how can I not know of such notorious murders?

    Loch Ard Gorge is on the coastline. His intent will have been to have the car plunge into the ocean (not burst into flames), thereby delaying the discovery of the murders which he had crafted to appear like the work of a disturbed mother. The history of the location provides further clues as to what he intended and how he would have liked the murders to have been perceived, in my opinion. There is a book about the case written by a police officer who had been a boy living in the same street at the time. The title is Almost Perfect: The True Story of the Crawford Family Murders. The officer now lives in the USA and has changed profession - I would love to see him on Dr. Grande’s channel ♥️

    For someone so mechanically inclined, it doesn't make any sense that he neglected to set a small ignition fire in the car before pushing it over the cliff. It is an almost ridiculous oversight. Then again, he was insane. Part of the insanity was how he had little reason to need to do this ghastly crime and that he would risk life in prison for the senseless act.

      He wasn't insane. He knew that what he did was wrong and tried to cover his tracks. When that failed, he left for parts somewhat unknown. He had no conscience. Having no conscience by itself is not insanity; he was well aware of the risks of getting caught and managed to evade law enforcement and justice.

I was a practicing medical professional, so I've been educated in those differences. Even so, there are people who walk that fine line between personality disorders and insanity. It's why multiple forensic psychologists/psychiatrists often have differences in their diagnoses of a perpetrator of a violent crime.

    One of the residents had been there for over forty years. She was there because she was thought to be clinically depressed and mentally ill, so she was not released.

A year or 2 ago up in Queensland a man locked his wife and kids in their car and set it on fire before committing suicide. More commonly a recently separated father will kill his kids to get revenge on the mother. I just read ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ which covers seperate cases of both of these types of murderers.

    At around 13:57 you mentioned a “colonial inquest” but I think you might mean “coronial”? The coroner’s office holds an inquiry as to the potential evidence to see if there’s enough to bring charges. Also, the gas (petrol) cans in the car at Loch Ard would possibly have been needed because at the time gas/petrol stations closed ridiculously early and you just couldn’t refuel 24/7 as can be done now. My parents often tell the story of racing to the hospital to have a baby, panicking more about the low fuel level in the tank than the impending birth.
