1 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: Why do you believe that Kevan's responsible for Rochelle's murder. 2 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 2: My Dad's never raised his voice, raised a hand to me. 3 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 2: I was never smacked. As a child, I experienced nothing but. 4 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 3: Displays of love. 5 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 2: But I know when I disappointed my dad and I 6 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: saw evil sides of him. I saw how calculated and 7 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 2: sinister he could be. I see the way he treated women. 8 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 2: I knew he was capable of horrible things. 9 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 3: I knew that. 10 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 2: Crossing him could be dangerous for people. But I know 11 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: how quickly he can turn on his most significant relationships, 12 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 2: how you can go from being the center of his 13 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: universe to nothing and no one easily. But I think 14 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: my initial instinct when hearing that Rochelle had been murdered 15 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: was that it was my father. 16 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: I'm Ashley Hanson and you're listening to episode fourteen of 17 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: Dear Rochelle, a podcast by True Crime Australia. This is 18 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: the untold story of Rochelle Charles, a twenty three year 19 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: old who was brutally murdered. Her killer has never been caught. 20 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: This is the second of a two part interview with 21 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: Kevin Stephen Corell's daughter Jazz. As you heard last episode, 22 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: Jazz has some pretty strong beliefs about her father, particularly 23 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,639 Speaker 1: in relation to historic allegations for which she was found 24 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: not guilty. Jazz also believes her dad murdered Rochelle. These 25 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: are only Jazz's opinions about her dad. She's come to 26 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: these views for a combination of her own interactions with 27 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: her father and witnessing his relationships with other people, including 28 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: both of his ex wives, the first being her mother. This, 29 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: of course, doesn't make it proof of Kevin's guilt of 30 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: any offenses. These are only Jazz's opinions, and in fact, 31 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: you will hear Jazz say she doesn't have any evidence 32 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: that her dad committed these crimes, but we think it's 33 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: important for you to hear her voice. Kevin Carrell strenuously 34 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: denies any involvement in Rochelle's murder and has never been charged. 35 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: He has willingly participated in three records of interview with 36 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 1: police and provided his DNA to investigators. A coroner presiding 37 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: over Rochelle's inquest made an open finding, did you ever 38 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: meet Rochelle? 39 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 3: Yes? 40 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 2: So did at Campton Holden, being that I think I 41 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 2: met her when I was about sixteen. I was seventeen 42 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: when she passed, so my brother had not long had 43 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: his license and he often borrowed cars from Campton Holden 44 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: and so you know, if he was heading out there 45 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: to visit out dad, I'd often go. 46 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 3: And I met Rochelle a few times. 47 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 2: And at that age, you know, a young woman that age, 48 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: it's automatically someone you look up to, and you know 49 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: she's very bubbly and friendly and yeah, just lovely, very 50 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: very sweet. 51 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 4: Do you remember being told that she died. 52 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: I don't remember the specifics on how I found that out. 53 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: I don't remember a conversation with my dad about it. 54 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 2: My feeling is possibly that my brother told me, but 55 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: I can't confirm that my brother at that time had 56 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: a closer relationship with my dad. At sixteen seventeen, I 57 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 2: you know, didn't really have a lot to do with him. 58 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 2: The time she passed away and the time I fell 59 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 2: pregnant with my eldest son, I had cut my dud 60 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: from my life and told him I believed he did it. 61 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 2: So this was before the inquest, but I had stated 62 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: that I believed he was responsible, and it wasn't until 63 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: later in my pregnancy that I reconnected with him, and 64 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 2: I think I apologize for saying that. I put it 65 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: down to being angry at him, as. 66 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 3: I said, you know, being seventeen. 67 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 2: I don't remember the order in which I found things out, 68 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: but I think there was possibly a conversation about, you know, 69 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 2: the defrauding of Campton Holden. And I was well aware 70 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: that if Rochelle had become aware that he was doing that, 71 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: and you know, if someone told me my dad stole something, 72 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 2: I would immediately believe that my dad is a thief. 73 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: You know, most of time he passes it off as 74 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: a joke. We couldn't go anywhere without him pocketing something 75 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 2: or you know, and it was always a joke to him. 76 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 2: I think he really got off on I'm doing things 77 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: like that, insignificant things. I remember one time from a 78 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 2: shopping center, he's stall bins so he could have them 79 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 2: at the back. They were nice, decretive bins. He'd brag 80 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: about it. 81 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 1: When did you start to think that the fraud allegations 82 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: against your father could have been his motive? 83 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: I think it was. He did definitely didn't tell me, 84 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 2: because I remember I remember bringing it up to him 85 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 2: about Camden Holden. I think I'd read it in a 86 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: paper and. 87 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 3: I asked him. 88 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: I said, well, you know, let's this about you defrodi 89 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: and he said, oh, they I remember something about seven 90 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: thousand dollars and he said, like, I'm going to kill 91 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: a young girl over seven thousand dollars, and he denied 92 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: that he had defrauded. 93 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 5: Hold it. 94 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 2: It's possibly that my brain's been attached to that for 95 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: twenty four years, that the sexual element of it was 96 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: something I had not considered, which is probably ridiculous to 97 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: most considering his history. I didn't view it that way though, 98 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: So Yeah, to me, it was about her exposing who 99 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 2: he was. I think she possibly started questioning things because 100 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 2: of her commissions. She made him paranoid. Probably didn't know 101 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: how to get out of it. He felt like he 102 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: was being exposed. Exposing my dad in any way, exposing 103 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 2: or shining a light on him not being wonderful is 104 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 2: what will set him off. I don't think he can 105 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: bring anybody in. I don't think it would have occurred 106 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 2: to him to say that to Rachelle, I'll give you 107 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: some extra money if she found out about the fraud. 108 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 2: I think a lot of the time when my dad's 109 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: been in a situation where he's being exposed he just 110 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: moves on to the next part of his life. I 111 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: don't know what it was about Rochelle. I think maybe 112 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: being in a car yard too, like that. My dad 113 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: worked in car yards my whole life. 114 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 3: That being. 115 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 2: Becoming well known it would have angered him. I remember 116 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: there was one podcast where one of my dad's former 117 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: partners said that my dad spoke about Rochelle's performance dropping 118 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,119 Speaker 2: in the months before she died. 119 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 3: For him to speak. 120 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 2: About someone like that, my dad wouldn't care if someone 121 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: wasn't working hard. 122 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 3: It's not something that would affect him. He wasn't a 123 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: hard worker, you know, he never has been. 124 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: He's use of her had shifted, and he was probably 125 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: trying to make Rachelle look a certain way so that 126 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 2: if she did expose him, or it could be that 127 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: she had laughed at him, changed his view entirely. But 128 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: also he would have been trying to change people's perceptions 129 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: of Rochelle to make her look like a liar if 130 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: she came out and exposed him. 131 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 4: What about if she rejected him. 132 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: Probably the most dangerous thing that she could have done. 133 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: I don't think my dad gets rejected very often. I think, 134 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: you know, in most social settings where you know, maybe 135 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: he'd make an advance. You know, he'd probably never see 136 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 2: that woman again if she, you know, was that mingles 137 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 2: or and that's fine, and he'd probably accept that and 138 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 2: minimize how much he wanted her. But Rochelle being in 139 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: his life every day, and how much he would have 140 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 2: been infatuated with her, her rejecting him would have been 141 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: a massive hit to his ego. But if Rochelle had 142 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 2: rejected him or mocked him, or if it was known 143 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 2: that she had rejected him, that would have infuriated him. 144 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: Because the biggest thing for my daddy is the show, 145 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: the ego, the being revered by people. He needs to 146 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: be sent a stage. He needs to be the most 147 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: important person. It would have embarrassed him, and that's probably 148 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: the most dangerous thing you can do to my daddy 149 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: is embarrass him. 150 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 4: You've had a lot of years to consider your father's behavior, 151 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 4: what you know of him, and also now insights into 152 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 4: Rochelle's case. What do you you believe happened to Rochelle 153 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 4: that night? 154 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: I believe that he lured her with the Walker shore. 155 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 2: He convinced her they were going to pick it up. 156 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: I don't know how he convinced her to drive her car. 157 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: I think he met her at Bargo. That's the only 158 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: part that's missing for me. Why they went in her car. 159 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: My dad's known to always be the driver. I've never 160 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 2: driven with my dad in the car. Don't know how 161 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: that happened. I think he then they went to Giroua. 162 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,599 Speaker 2: I think he wanted to kill her, possibly as punishment 163 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: for rejecting him, but I think it was about the 164 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 2: exposure of him defrauding Camden Holden. I think he pulled 165 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: up at that exact spot for the cement kid and 166 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 2: when couldn't get that open. You know, he's left her 167 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: where he has, but I think maybe there was a 168 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: car near Bargo Poppy he's driven back there. I believe 169 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 2: the reason her radio was stolen is my dad's terrified 170 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 2: of technology. He doesn't understand it. When my dad doesn't 171 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: understand things, he's angry about them, and it's something we've 172 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: sort of been able to mock him about technology, which 173 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: insults him. It affects his ego. I think around that 174 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: time would have been when you'd first sort of see 175 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 2: on crime shows that radios had GPS features, and because 176 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 2: my dad didn't understand I think it was important to 177 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: him that he take that out. 178 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: First thing. 179 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 2: When I heard about the radio, which was only in 180 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: the last few weeks, my first thought was he took 181 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 2: it out because technology. There was also comments about, you know, 182 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 2: the three different places he had to shoe, handbags, and 183 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 2: the sheet. I think he would have been insulted with 184 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 2: the way that was presented as him being fearful and 185 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: anxious and disorganized. I think he did that intentionally and 186 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: he thought it was forensically intelligent. He wouldn't like how 187 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 2: it was interpreted as he didn't do a good job, 188 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 2: and he'd probably be smugging the fact that, well, if 189 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 2: it was so bad, well I got away with that. 190 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: I dud thinks he knows the legal system, and he doesn't. 191 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: A few times I've had to explain things, and you know, 192 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't like that at all. He's never had any 193 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 2: regard whatsoever for my intelligence, and despite my degree, I 194 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: could fill him in and he'd just get frustrated. He 195 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: thinks he knows everything about it because of watching I 196 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: See You It's those shows. But I think he thinks 197 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: of himself as someone who, rather than luck, it's because 198 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: of his skill. 199 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: He's got away with things. I think that's how he 200 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:20,599 Speaker 3: views it. 201 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: Your father must be afforded the presumption of innocence. But 202 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: why do you believe he's gotten away with Rochelle's murder. 203 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 3: I honestly couldn't tell you. 204 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: I think my dad's probably the luckiest man I've ever known, 205 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: and I've always seen luck on his side. 206 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 3: I remember my mom. 207 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: My mom was definitely never someone who, you know, even 208 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: though she had valid reason to say a lot of 209 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: things about my father, she wasn't one of those mothers 210 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 2: whoever bad mouthed us. She'd stopped my grandparents from ever 211 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 2: saying anything bad as well. But she used to always say, 212 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: your father will always lean on his feet. I heard 213 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 2: that a billion times through my life, and he does. 214 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: If we did a ruffle somewhere, my dad would win. 215 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 2: My dad always got the best parking spot. I've seen 216 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: him just have this extraordinary luck, didn't have a once 217 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: or twice repeatedly all the time. I've never known anyone 218 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: with his luck, and I'm sort of the opposite. I 219 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: have the opposite luck. I get every light. My dad 220 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 2: never gets them. I think his luck is just it's 221 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 2: something else, and I don't know where it comes from 222 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 2: I think. You know, when you look at his cases 223 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: from the eighties, you can point to the times you 224 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: know victims weren't believed. My dad is very charismatic, very charming, 225 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: and he can convince people of many different things. He 226 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 2: just packs up and then he lands on his feet 227 00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 2: again every time. And I think because he's got away 228 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: with so many things, he does feel untouchable and invincible. 229 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: I've never seen my dad anxious or scared of anything. 230 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 3: He has a very very low. 231 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: Range of emotions. There's anger, which he suppresses, but I 232 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: can see it in his eyes. I know when my 233 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 2: dad's angry, but he doesn't show it. And there's happy 234 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: fun that version of my dad, and that's most of 235 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: the time. Yeah, but there's not a wide range, and 236 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 2: he just he's used that to win people over and 237 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: have people defend him. There were quite a few years 238 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: that I know I protected him where people would have 239 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: their doubts and I would convince them that, you know, 240 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have someone like that in my life. I 241 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 2: always feel guilt and shame about that, because deep down 242 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 2: I knew, but I needed other people to not believe that. 243 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: My dad was a big support of mine. That sounds disgraceful. 244 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 3: I know that. 245 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: You know I was willing to let something like murder 246 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: slide for the support he offered, But there was a 247 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: lot of trauma in my life. I was not well, 248 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: and I didn't know how to deal with all of this. 249 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 4: Do you remember realizing he was being investigated over Rochelle's matter. 250 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 2: I remember my mum's parents had told me they rang 251 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: the police to tell them about my dad's real name, 252 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: with his former history, and I remember the police coming 253 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 2: out to interview me. I don't remember a lot of questions. 254 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: I just remember them asking about a sheet more than anything. 255 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 2: I can't remember exactly what I said to them at 256 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: the time, but they were asking me if I had 257 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 2: been to his place at Lake Laura, and yeah, I'd 258 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 2: bet there maybe once or twice. So I couldn't give 259 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: them a lot of information, but. 260 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: I just knew. 261 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 2: I don't know, I always had that feeling, but I 262 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: think the minute I knew was when the inquest was 263 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 2: happening and it was printed about Rochelle's fingers, and my 264 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 2: dad was coming over daily at that time, and he 265 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 2: was falling apart about what they were printing about him, 266 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 2: and at that time. It was horrible. You know, I 267 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: lost a lot of friends through that time with no 268 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: notice or anything. But I remember him coming over and 269 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 2: I had read about Rochelle being a and Dad walked 270 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: into my house and he said, they're saying I've made 271 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 2: up this comment about the fingers. I've never said that, 272 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 2: But I knew at that moment that he'd done it 273 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: because he told me the story multiple times. He had 274 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 2: said that Rachelle's fingers were cut off because she was 275 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: dealing drugs for bikers, and that's a biker punishment. He 276 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 2: had a fascination with bikers. 277 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 3: But the second he. 278 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 2: Told me that that was a lie and he never 279 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 2: said those things, that's when I realized he's done this. 280 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: That was the moment. And I remember. 281 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 3: Talking to my oldest son when there was a lot 282 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 3: of stuff in. 283 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 2: The media, and I mean, my baby boy was maybe twelve, 284 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: and he wanted to know about the case. He knew 285 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 2: that his grandfather had been in the media and stuff. 286 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: It was way too young to have those conversations, but 287 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 2: I was worried about what would be said in the 288 00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: school yard, and you know, his friend's parents having conversations 289 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 2: with friends and stuff. 290 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 3: So I had to tell me about the case, and. 291 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: I still urged it to my lips the minute I 292 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: told him about the fingers and the pain in my 293 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 2: son's face realizing who his grandfather was. I've never ever 294 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: forgotten that conversation. I don't remember how we sat down 295 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 2: and talked. I know I would have been gentle, and 296 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: but the second I said about the fingers his face. 297 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 3: Never forget it. 298 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: And for you, it was this conversation sitting on the 299 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: couch when he said I never said that. 300 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 4: I never said that. What was that like for you? 301 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 4: In that moment? Take me into that room. 302 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 2: I just wanted to pass out. I just I still 303 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 2: remember just feeling electrified. 304 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 4: Were you fearful? 305 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 3: At that time? 306 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: I didn't think my dad would hurt me. There have 307 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 2: been many periods through my life there I did believe 308 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 2: my dad would hurt me if he could get away 309 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: with it. But at that time, I think he was 310 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 2: very dependent on people thinking he's innocent, and he viewed 311 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: me as someone who believed he was innocent. But I 312 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: was scared of what he was capable of. I was 313 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 2: definitely scared to say you're lying. I would never have 314 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,479 Speaker 2: said that because that would have put me in danger. 315 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 4: It must have taken a lot of guts for you 316 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 4: to accuse your father of Rochelle's murder. 317 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: Through I mean, there's probably been four or five big 318 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 2: blow ups between me and my dad where we get 319 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 2: to that level of cruelty. First time was when I 320 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 2: was twelve, and then that second time after Rochelle died, 321 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 2: and it's yeah, built up. It's all the times where 322 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: I played along and got resentful of let it go, 323 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 2: that he was flood out lying, and it builds up 324 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,479 Speaker 2: and builds up to a point where I just snap. 325 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: We never discuss it when we come back together, and 326 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 2: there's been brief mentions, and my dad would never take 327 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: accountability for any of it. He'd talked about how much 328 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 2: I hurt him. 329 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 4: How soon after Rochelle's murder did your father tell you 330 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 4: that Rochelle's fingers had been cut off? 331 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 2: I don't remember the specific conversation. I just I remember 332 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 2: telling people, you know, because that's what my dad had 333 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 2: told me, the bikers had done it. And I remember 334 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 2: just feeling like the blood had drained from my face 335 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 2: the time he sat on my lounge and said, I've 336 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 2: never said that. He said it to me multiple times. 337 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 2: I don't remember him talking about Rochelle's death in any 338 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 2: other sense than him defending himself. There was no conversations 339 00:21:53,240 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: about missing Rochelle or how wonderful she was, or there 340 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 2: was never anything other thankers did it. She was dealing 341 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 2: drugs and it was that he wasn't involved. 342 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 4: What did he say when you said, I believe you 343 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 4: did it? 344 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 3: My dad will. 345 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 2: Match my cruelty. When I'm a pretty passive person, as 346 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 2: I said, I'm very compliant with my dad's lies and 347 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 2: things like that, and then I let it all build 348 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,239 Speaker 2: up until I erupt and I get very cruel and 349 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 2: I have said some really cruel things to my dad. 350 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 2: My dad matches that, and he says crueler things back. 351 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 2: And I mean, there's been times throughout my life that 352 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: I've had doubts and thought, what if he didn't do it? 353 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 2: And I've said the most horrific thing. It'd be heartbreaking 354 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: to have your child throw that in your face. 355 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 3: But I do believe he did it. I think he 356 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 3: knows he did it. 357 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 4: Did he ever have any compassion or grief about what 358 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 4: happened to Rochelle? 359 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 3: Not that I ever saw. 360 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen compassion in my father, 361 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: except when my daughter died. I know that broke him. 362 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: I think I was the single most painful thing of 363 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: his life. 364 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 3: Cruelty was always. 365 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 2: In a very, very different way than most people experience cruelty. 366 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 2: He managed to get people in on it with him always, 367 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 2: and I think that's so unique and it adds an 368 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: extra layer of evilness. I think he fully thought that 369 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 2: his charm would make people not suspect him, and he 370 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: could point it towards bikers because in his eyes, he 371 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 2: would have lost any adoration he had for Rochelle because 372 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 2: she was hanging out with bikers. He has a very 373 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 2: skewed view on how women are supposed to act. He 374 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 2: would have minimized Rochelle's worth in hearing that she was 375 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 2: hanging out with bikers. I know that he would have 376 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 2: had an infatuation with her, and it would have seriously 377 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: angered him that she was involved with people like that, 378 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 2: because he expects to be revered. He expects to be 379 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 2: the center of everyone's attention. 380 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 4: Do you believe that your father cut off Rochelle's fingers. 381 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 3: Yes, I do. 382 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 2: I think that was his attempt for getting away with it. 383 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: As I've said, he's very calculated. He thinks he's forensically 384 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 2: super intelligent. And I think he intentionally cut off her 385 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 2: fingers and make up the rumor that Rochelle was stealing 386 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 2: drugs for bikers, because that's something he could completely dismiss 387 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: her character. He would you minimize her character, whether Rochelle 388 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 2: was doing that or not. And I don't believe for 389 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 2: a second she was. That's not something I would say, well, 390 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 2: you deserve to be killed for. In my dad's head, 391 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 2: she would become nothing and no one if she's really 392 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 2: if she's dealing with bikers, if she's dealing drugs, he 393 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 2: would be able to minimize in his head who she 394 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 2: was as a human being. And although I can't visualize 395 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 2: in my head that my dad would be able to 396 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: burn a body, cut fingers off, who is the most 397 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 2: horrific thing thinking about him visually doing those things, I 398 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 2: know how he can completely destroy any idea of someone's 399 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 2: humanness when they have disappointed him. 400 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: Is that because you believe you've felt that, and you've 401 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: experienced feeling of nothing. 402 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: He would act like I hung the moon and I 403 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: was everything, and then I was nothing and I was 404 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 2: so insignificant, And he never cared, and he didn't care 405 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 2: what happened to. 406 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: Me, what would be happening to him inside In those 407 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: moments when he has rage for someone, you'd. 408 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 2: See flickers in his face, especially his eyes. A lot 409 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 2: of his victims have talked about his eyes. They're definitely 410 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 2: really significant. I could see it, but I don't think 411 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 2: anyone who didn't know you well would be able to 412 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 2: see it. My dad's not reactive at all. He's not anxious, 413 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 2: he's not full of well, he's probably is full of rage, 414 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 2: but not in the sense that most people would have. 415 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 3: Very calculated. 416 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 2: He is very He can mask so much of what 417 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,959 Speaker 2: he's feeling and put a smile on his face and 418 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 2: stew on it and come up with the plan and 419 00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 2: execute his revenge or his plan later on without any one. 420 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 2: You know, it's very hard to say how you get 421 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 2: victimized by my father because there's a lot of gas 422 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: lighting there, and most people be like, what are you 423 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: talking about? You so crazy? You're paranoid? You know, he's wonderful, 424 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 2: and how does X, Y and Z equal this? But 425 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: it is, you know, the people I'd see him like, 426 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 2: when my dad didn't like someone, he would make jokes 427 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 2: at their expense that everyone would laugh at, including myself, 428 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: And I feel very guilty about that now. But to 429 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 2: most people go, it's banter, it's harmless, but. 430 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: It was cruel. 431 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 2: It was always a cruelty, and he got off on 432 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 2: making people laugh at people. 433 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: He didn't like, what would you say to people or 434 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: even if your father said, you just she's lying. 435 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 4: She has a grudge against me. 436 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 2: I think he said that to multiple people over the years. 437 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 2: He has told I know he's spoken to one of 438 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: my sons, who only very recently told me that this 439 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: conversation had happened. But yeah, apparently my dad had said 440 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 2: to him, you know, I know your mom thinks I 441 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 2: killed Rochelle, and they had a conversation about it, and 442 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, he said that you know it was bikers 443 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 2: that were responsible. And he said, you your mum believes 444 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: this because of a rape case back in the eighties. 445 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 2: And then he told the police officer's daughter story. Which 446 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 2: are the conversations that I hadn't had with my son. 447 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 2: So when he reported them all back to me only recently, 448 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: this was he would have been about thirteen or fourteen 449 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 2: at the time of this conversation. So yeah, he'd got 450 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: into his head about it and tried to plant seeds 451 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 2: of doubt there. 452 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: Why is that you carry that shame and guilt about 453 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: loving your father? 454 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 5: I think. 455 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 3: The way my dad is with me. 456 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,959 Speaker 2: Made people believe that he's not capable of bad things. 457 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 2: You know, I know with myself, when you meet a 458 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 2: man who's a wonderful father, you believe in his inherit goodness. 459 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 3: And I do believe to a degree. 460 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: I was a tool he used to convince people of that, 461 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 2: and I played along. If there was an audience, my 462 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 2: dad would really amp it up. He was very much 463 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: the showman. If we're at a party, he would spin 464 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 2: me around and dance with me and Britain. I was 465 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 2: the center of everything, and I saw women fall over 466 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 2: themselves with that act. He never told me how to 467 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 2: do it, but eat into it because his love. 468 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 3: Felt special. 469 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 2: But when it wasn't an audience witnessing that that didn't exist. 470 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 2: I realized very early that I was at all. It 471 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 2: was something he used to convince people of his goodness, 472 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 2: but I didn't. 473 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 3: Want it to stop. 474 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, there was. 475 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 2: Very different versions of him. If he'd gone to jail, 476 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: maybe I would never know him. Maybe he'd just be 477 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 2: a story to me. Maybe I wouldn't have developed any 478 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 2: love for him. It's a sacrifice I would have made, though, 479 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: to not have my father in my life. If he 480 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 2: had gone to jail back in those times and it 481 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 2: was potential for him to change, he could not do 482 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 2: what he'd done. 483 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 4: Do you hope for a day that this will stop 484 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 4: following you? 485 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 3: Yeah? 486 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he feels selfish to ever put any 487 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 2: focus on that. I want this to stop following us, 488 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 2: not at the expense of Christian and receiving justice. I 489 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 2: will enjoy this for the rest of my life if 490 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: it means they get justice and they get the answers 491 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 2: that they deserve. I don't want him found guilty and 492 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 2: put in jail. I want him to admit what he did. 493 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll take it anyway it happens, but I 494 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: think they deserve that from him. I don't know if 495 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: it's ever going to happen. I've told him when I'm 496 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: in my cruel state of mind that he helps me 497 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 2: get to that. You know, a lot of the time, 498 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 2: I think I wanted him in my life because I 499 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 2: wanted a deathbed confession from him. 500 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 3: One day. 501 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 2: I wanted something I could take to them. I remember, 502 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: you know, multiple times he's been unwell, and you know, 503 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 2: I don't know how true it is and stuff, but 504 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 2: I wonder if you'll say anything. I don't think he will. 505 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: I think he's too selfish for that. But I know 506 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: that the day i find out my father has passed, 507 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 2: the first thing I'm going to do before I shared 508 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 2: a single tear with better tell Christian and anyone else 509 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 2: that I know that's been victimized by him and give 510 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 2: them peace they deserve. 511 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 4: What do you want Christian and to know? 512 00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 5: But I'm sorry, and I'm. 513 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 3: Sorry that. 514 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 2: I participated in twenty four years of him having quid 515 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 2: fit and happy days. 516 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: Jas. 517 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: You were a child when this happened and has nothing 518 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: to do with you. This is heartbreaking to listen to 519 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: you talk like this, that you hold so much guilt 520 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: either somebody else's actions. 521 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 2: I don't know what experience. I don't I can't even 522 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 2: comprehend it. But I've lost a child. 523 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 3: And it's. 524 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 2: It's the most excruciating pain in the world that it 525 00:33:55,320 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 2: never leaves. But to add on to that, someone who 526 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 2: has walk three for twenty four years having good memories, 527 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 2: and I've participated in that I've told my dad I 528 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 2: don't believe in karma, but I remember feeling like I 529 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 2: lost my daughter as karma for sending by him. 530 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 5: I did. 531 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 2: Who felt like the fact that I had a knowledge 532 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,959 Speaker 2: deep inside me that he did this and I still 533 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 2: only met my life. I don't even believe in the 534 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 2: concept of it, but I feel like I need to 535 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 2: be punished for that. I feel like. 536 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 3: I was complicit in and what he's done and the 537 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 3: people he's hurt. 538 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 2: I wish he'd been got twenty four years ago and 539 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 2: here was nothing but a story my children knew today. 540 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 3: It's I don't want the attention of this. 541 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 2: I don't want to be going through any of this, 542 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 2: but it needs to happen, and if justice is never served, 543 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 2: I think it's important that his face is known, his name, 544 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: he is known, He still has, you know, his innocence 545 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 2: and stuff. But I think it's significant that I'm his 546 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: daughter and I don't believe in his innocence. And I 547 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 2: could certainly get any attention by saying he's innocent and 548 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 2: being loud and proud about that and. 549 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 5: Giving interviews and supporting him. 550 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 3: That's not what this is about. 551 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 2: I hate even the insinuation of that. 552 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: That would be a lot easier to do, but you 553 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: take it in a harder step. Yes, to speak out 554 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: about someone who you love yep, deep down yep. 555 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 2: And it hurts. It hurts a lot to openly declare this. 556 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 2: I'm sick constantly. This has been a lot. My kids 557 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 2: have seen me in a hor refixed date over recent weeks. 558 00:36:34,080 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 5: But it's it needs to happen.
