WEBVTT - There Was Blood Everywhere

0:00:05.921 --> 0:00:07.281
<v Speaker 1>Apoche production.

0:00:13.001 --> 0:00:16.281
<v Speaker 2>He was a goofy dad, you know. He did all

0:00:16.281 --> 0:00:19.000
<v Speaker 2>these little funny jokes and as a little kid, I

0:00:19.001 --> 0:00:20.041
<v Speaker 2>thought they were hilarious.

0:00:21.241 --> 0:00:24.481
<v Speaker 3>Linda Willeman and her husband Darren dropped her father John

0:00:24.601 --> 0:00:28.481
<v Speaker 3>Jensen home on Sunday after a family lunch. They say

0:00:28.641 --> 0:00:31.561
<v Speaker 3>he was in good spirits, but the sixty eight year

0:00:31.601 --> 0:00:33.961
<v Speaker 3>old has disappeared without a trace.

0:00:35.241 --> 0:00:38.361
<v Speaker 2>At no time as he indicated suicidal tendencies.

0:00:40.441 --> 0:00:43.641
<v Speaker 4>That fall has never sat well with me, I'll be honest.

0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:47.761
<v Speaker 5>Well, the discovery of John Jensen's car outside the Lancelon

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:50.881
<v Speaker 5>Beach Hotel is a big breakthrough in the police search

0:00:51.081 --> 0:00:53.081
<v Speaker 5>for the missing ocean reef grandfather.

0:00:53.761 --> 0:00:56.081
<v Speaker 2>Look, he did have a bit of depression and I

0:00:56.161 --> 0:00:58.561
<v Speaker 2>put the light on and then I just saw blood. Yeah,

0:00:58.641 --> 0:01:03.041
<v Speaker 2>all these blood footprints pretty much. She was very in

0:01:03.081 --> 0:01:04.881
<v Speaker 2>your face then and there was there's quite a lot

0:01:04.881 --> 0:01:07.041
<v Speaker 2>of and I was like, what the hell is happening?

0:01:07.081 --> 0:01:10.401
<v Speaker 2>And I yelled out and I think he was murdered. No,

0:01:10.601 --> 0:01:12.681
<v Speaker 2>I hand on my heart.

0:01:13.081 --> 0:01:15.881
<v Speaker 4>I believe he was murdered because this is my dad,

0:01:16.401 --> 0:01:18.441
<v Speaker 4>this is my story, this is what happened.

0:01:23.401 --> 0:01:27.641
<v Speaker 1>Belle Wilma is John Jensen's youngest daughter, She is an

0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.961
<v Speaker 1>older sister, and as you heard in the last episode,

0:01:30.441 --> 0:01:34.121
<v Speaker 1>that relationship has become strained since the disappearance of their dad.

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>On June twenty five, twenty seventeen, Belle's mother passed away

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:42.321
<v Speaker 1>from a heart attack in the family home, six years

0:01:42.321 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>before the last moment they saw their dad. Belle was

0:01:47.041 --> 0:01:49.041
<v Speaker 1>the first person to find a mum's body in the

0:01:49.041 --> 0:01:52.441
<v Speaker 1>back room. Her dad, Jasper, continued to live in the

0:01:52.481 --> 0:01:55.041
<v Speaker 1>family house until he went missing.

0:01:56.721 --> 0:02:05.041
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Absolutely, he wasn't worried. That didn't again, it didn't.

0:02:05.281 --> 0:02:06.801
<v Speaker 4>That's where he wanted to be, you know.

0:02:06.881 --> 0:02:08.681
<v Speaker 2>That was that was our family home, and we still

0:02:08.721 --> 0:02:11.441
<v Speaker 2>had had fond memories and.

0:02:10.921 --> 0:02:12.641
<v Speaker 4>And what happened was just, you know.

0:02:12.641 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 2>A tragic It was a tragic situation, but it wasn't

0:02:17.161 --> 0:02:19.401
<v Speaker 2>obviously caused by anyone else. It was it was obviously

0:02:19.441 --> 0:02:22.201
<v Speaker 2>meant to happen. It's no one else was involved. And

0:02:23.121 --> 0:02:25.921
<v Speaker 2>the only thing I struggled the most sort of going

0:02:25.921 --> 0:02:29.120
<v Speaker 2>in that back room, but actually going to the house.

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:30.561
<v Speaker 4>Didn't bother me at all. You know.

0:02:30.601 --> 0:02:32.321
<v Speaker 2>It taught me a few months to sort of get

0:02:32.321 --> 0:02:34.281
<v Speaker 2>myself okay, just just do it, you know, because I

0:02:34.361 --> 0:02:36.761
<v Speaker 2>everyone went in there, I just kept saying, Mum, you

0:02:36.761 --> 0:02:39.520
<v Speaker 2>know the images images there. But you know I got

0:02:39.561 --> 0:02:40.761
<v Speaker 2>over that fairly quickly, and.

0:02:42.601 --> 0:02:46.041
<v Speaker 1>Jessper had adapted to life without his wife. Across the

0:02:46.121 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>six years since she passed, he'd started to play golf

0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 1>and hang out with his friends. He had a small

0:02:52.321 --> 0:02:54.641
<v Speaker 1>but close group of friends because he was a bit

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:58.161
<v Speaker 1>of a quiet guy. He enjoyed staying at home watching

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:00.241
<v Speaker 1>Kelly in the front room of the ocean roof house

0:03:00.281 --> 0:03:07.801
<v Speaker 1>that they lived in. Across the period of years, Jawn's

0:03:07.841 --> 0:03:11.601
<v Speaker 1>health started to suffer. He developed a few medical issues,

0:03:11.601 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>which made it harder for him to pursue his love

0:03:14.321 --> 0:03:17.761
<v Speaker 1>of golf. It came to a head in twenty sixteen

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.761
<v Speaker 1>when he went to his GP for some medical issues.

0:03:21.921 --> 0:03:23.961
<v Speaker 2>Well, the thing that we were trying to get on

0:03:24.001 --> 0:03:27.800
<v Speaker 2>top of with his peripheral ropathy, and that was basically

0:03:28.281 --> 0:03:32.321
<v Speaker 2>nerve damage or nerve pain in his feet. I mean,

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:36.161
<v Speaker 2>being a laborer, he had back, you know, back problems.

0:03:36.201 --> 0:03:39.801
<v Speaker 2>But that's fairly fairly common, you know, that brick labor

0:03:39.921 --> 0:03:40.681
<v Speaker 2>of all his life.

0:03:40.721 --> 0:03:42.881
<v Speaker 4>But you know, the recent thing that had come.

0:03:42.761 --> 0:03:46.841
<v Speaker 2>Up around them was you know, we couldn't couldn't figure

0:03:46.841 --> 0:03:49.041
<v Speaker 2>out whys for his feet were spelling and things like that.

0:03:49.081 --> 0:03:51.921
<v Speaker 2>So we're trying to get on top of the neuropathy pain.

0:03:52.521 --> 0:03:53.881
<v Speaker 2>So I was the one that actually took him to

0:03:54.121 --> 0:03:57.761
<v Speaker 2>a pain management specialist to try and look at other

0:03:57.801 --> 0:04:00.481
<v Speaker 2>ways of you know, instead of you know, hard medication

0:04:00.601 --> 0:04:02.921
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that, and you know that the sort

0:04:02.921 --> 0:04:05.921
<v Speaker 2>of stuff to be in mind. So yeah, that that's

0:04:05.921 --> 0:04:06.961
<v Speaker 2>sort of why I took him there.

0:04:07.641 --> 0:04:10.841
<v Speaker 1>And so in the Corners report, which which was obviously

0:04:10.841 --> 0:04:13.001
<v Speaker 1>had a look at, it was mentioned he saw a

0:04:13.041 --> 0:04:15.841
<v Speaker 1>pain specialist, which is I'm guessing the pain specialists you

0:04:15.921 --> 0:04:19.841
<v Speaker 1>took him to correct His pain was a nine out

0:04:19.881 --> 0:04:23.761
<v Speaker 1>of ten normally, and when the medication wore off, it

0:04:23.801 --> 0:04:25.720
<v Speaker 1>was a one out of ten. So this pain medication

0:04:25.761 --> 0:04:28.881
<v Speaker 1>he was taken was was pretty useful for his pain.

0:04:29.121 --> 0:04:33.841
<v Speaker 2>It was absolutely, absolutely one hundred percent. And yeah, the

0:04:33.841 --> 0:04:35.681
<v Speaker 2>other issues were sort of flare up.

0:04:35.921 --> 0:04:37.121
<v Speaker 4>It wasn't all the time.

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:40.640
<v Speaker 2>You know, it was something that he could, you know,

0:04:41.041 --> 0:04:44.760
<v Speaker 2>we could manage, and he, like you know with other

0:04:45.281 --> 0:04:48.041
<v Speaker 2>my husbands at chronic fatigue, you know, he's been able

0:04:48.081 --> 0:04:52.640
<v Speaker 2>to manage, you know, his go through ups and lows

0:04:52.681 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>and what have you. And Dad was able to do

0:04:55.481 --> 0:04:59.801
<v Speaker 2>the same thing. Yeah, we were just getting we were

0:04:59.801 --> 0:05:02.921
<v Speaker 2>getting on top of it. That's fairly normal for any

0:05:03.041 --> 0:05:04.921
<v Speaker 2>sixty odd year old.

0:05:06.521 --> 0:05:09.041
<v Speaker 1>What sort of drugs was your dad on for his

0:05:09.201 --> 0:05:09.921
<v Speaker 1>chronic back pain.

0:05:10.761 --> 0:05:14.921
<v Speaker 4>He morphine patches and that worked. That worked really well.

0:05:15.161 --> 0:05:17.121
<v Speaker 2>Obviously, they just played around with the dosage just to

0:05:17.161 --> 0:05:21.921
<v Speaker 2>get the dosage right. So yeah, the morphine patches worked

0:05:21.921 --> 0:05:25.801
<v Speaker 2>really well. That didn't help the neuropathy pain. So we were, yeah,

0:05:25.961 --> 0:05:28.641
<v Speaker 2>just looking at at what other options there were because

0:05:28.841 --> 0:05:32.561
<v Speaker 2>he was eventually put on this horrendous drug which should

0:05:32.601 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 2>not be prescribed to anyone, and especially people you know,

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:38.601
<v Speaker 2>in his condition, and with the other drugs that he

0:05:38.681 --> 0:05:40.681
<v Speaker 2>was on, I think it was it was the wrong move.

0:05:40.801 --> 0:05:43.321
<v Speaker 2>But he was put on this, this particular drug, and

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:47.561
<v Speaker 2>that was the drug which did make him feel really crappy,

0:05:47.761 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, and it had it had side effects, but

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:50.921
<v Speaker 2>he was.

0:05:50.921 --> 0:05:52.921
<v Speaker 4>Not aware of the side effects.

0:05:53.121 --> 0:05:57.281
<v Speaker 2>We were having regular appointments to keep on top of it,

0:05:57.481 --> 0:06:00.401
<v Speaker 2>and you know, and realized, no, we need to win

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:01.641
<v Speaker 2>off this particular medication.

0:06:02.161 --> 0:06:03.641
<v Speaker 4>And that's what exactly what.

0:06:03.641 --> 0:06:06.681
<v Speaker 2>Happened, was that the oxyco no I no, that was

0:06:06.721 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 2>actually the neuronton that I'm talking about.

0:06:09.681 --> 0:06:15.601
<v Speaker 4>The obviously codin' again. You know, it was sort of

0:06:15.641 --> 0:06:17.361
<v Speaker 4>pushed on to him in a little way.

0:06:17.361 --> 0:06:18.961
<v Speaker 2>There was someone else in his life that was sort

0:06:19.001 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 2>of saying, here, yeah, this is a good option. It's

0:06:21.681 --> 0:06:24.961
<v Speaker 2>really good for paying medication. And I was the one going,

0:06:25.001 --> 0:06:27.880
<v Speaker 2>but this is really strong medication. You know, I'd actually

0:06:27.961 --> 0:06:30.960
<v Speaker 2>had that when I had had a cesarean, and I

0:06:31.001 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 2>was like, Dad, this is pretty strong stuff. And you know,

0:06:33.641 --> 0:06:37.121
<v Speaker 2>he quickly realized, well, that's it's not actually helping him,

0:06:37.161 --> 0:06:39.681
<v Speaker 2>and you know, not a lot. He was a doctor saying,

0:06:39.721 --> 0:06:42.561
<v Speaker 2>you know, take this sparingly, and he was taking it sparely.

0:06:42.561 --> 0:06:45.281
<v Speaker 2>I remember Dad going me towards you and you know,

0:06:45.281 --> 0:06:46.001
<v Speaker 2>I've got so much.

0:06:46.001 --> 0:06:47.281
<v Speaker 4>I'm not not taking meny at all.

0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.041
<v Speaker 2>Like he had thirty sitting there and he goes the

0:06:49.081 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 2>doctor's like, well, do you need anymore?

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:52.161
<v Speaker 4>And he goes, no, I've still got like thirty there.

0:06:53.081 --> 0:06:56.481
<v Speaker 2>So the doctor he wasn't taking you know, he'd gotten

0:06:56.481 --> 0:06:58.880
<v Speaker 2>on top of that that that was not the issue.

0:06:59.241 --> 0:07:01.720
<v Speaker 1>And so he was also an antidepressant, but he stopped

0:07:02.041 --> 0:07:02.721
<v Speaker 1>pretty quickly.

0:07:03.561 --> 0:07:06.321
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so he was put on a couple of different

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:09.721
<v Speaker 2>anti presents, but for different reasons. First of all, it

0:07:09.841 --> 0:07:12.321
<v Speaker 2>was to use as a nerve blocker, so it wasn't

0:07:12.321 --> 0:07:16.321
<v Speaker 2>actually for depression. There's various types of anti presentants that

0:07:16.321 --> 0:07:20.161
<v Speaker 2>are not necessarily for depression. It's spent for nerve problems.

0:07:20.201 --> 0:07:22.961
<v Speaker 2>And he was trialed I think one or two different

0:07:23.601 --> 0:07:26.361
<v Speaker 2>ones which they just didn't sit well in a diarrhea

0:07:26.401 --> 0:07:28.681
<v Speaker 2>and vomiting and so you know, he sees those quite quickly.

0:07:30.921 --> 0:07:32.241
<v Speaker 4>So that's why he sees those.

0:07:33.361 --> 0:07:35.961
<v Speaker 2>And I guess around this period, which was about a

0:07:36.001 --> 0:07:39.361
<v Speaker 2>couple of months period, so we're talking late twenty sixteen

0:07:39.601 --> 0:07:42.681
<v Speaker 2>sort of you know, December, which was when they were

0:07:42.721 --> 0:07:44.681
<v Speaker 2>really trying to figure out, you know, we get his

0:07:44.761 --> 0:07:45.441
<v Speaker 2>medications right.

0:07:45.481 --> 0:07:47.921
<v Speaker 4>But again that's fairly normal. I look at his GP records.

0:07:48.161 --> 0:07:50.801
<v Speaker 2>They were doing the right thing, seeing him fortnightly going on,

0:07:50.801 --> 0:07:52.521
<v Speaker 2>we've got to just this this, and it was going, yeah,

0:07:52.521 --> 0:07:55.161
<v Speaker 2>he's feeling better, and you know, we're getting.

0:07:54.961 --> 0:07:55.561
<v Speaker 4>On top of it.

0:07:55.561 --> 0:07:58.121
<v Speaker 2>It was a brief period of time that has been

0:07:58.121 --> 0:08:00.401
<v Speaker 2>made out to be for twelve months.

0:08:00.441 --> 0:08:00.881
<v Speaker 4>It wasn't.

0:08:00.961 --> 0:08:03.441
<v Speaker 2>It was you know, one or two months. They're like, okay,

0:08:03.721 --> 0:08:05.321
<v Speaker 2>you know Saw, and new Doc dur Any goes, well,

0:08:05.361 --> 0:08:06.761
<v Speaker 2>let's get off, isn't it ront And that was the

0:08:06.801 --> 0:08:07.641
<v Speaker 2>first thing they had to do.

0:08:08.281 --> 0:08:09.441
<v Speaker 4>Well, started weaning him off.

0:08:09.521 --> 0:08:12.961
<v Speaker 2>So you know, over that January through to up until May,

0:08:13.321 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 2>he was fully weaned off this medication.

0:08:14.921 --> 0:08:16.401
<v Speaker 4>And you have to wean it. You can't just take

0:08:16.401 --> 0:08:16.681
<v Speaker 4>it off.

0:08:16.681 --> 0:08:17.881
<v Speaker 1>What is that medication?

0:08:18.001 --> 0:08:18.241
<v Speaker 6>Sorry?

0:08:18.241 --> 0:08:23.001
<v Speaker 2>And what is It's neuron or gabba penton. It's supposed

0:08:23.001 --> 0:08:27.401
<v Speaker 2>to reduce the swelling in your fee tour and I

0:08:27.441 --> 0:08:30.840
<v Speaker 2>think for memory it sort of did help the pain.

0:08:31.161 --> 0:08:34.401
<v Speaker 2>But you know, it had horrible slide effects. So it's

0:08:34.441 --> 0:08:37.361
<v Speaker 2>a drug that I don't think he should ever have

0:08:37.361 --> 0:08:39.761
<v Speaker 2>been put on. And it was, you know, very important

0:08:39.761 --> 0:08:41.601
<v Speaker 2>for him to went off. And once he was off it,

0:08:41.761 --> 0:08:43.641
<v Speaker 2>you could tell. You could tell he was sort of

0:08:43.641 --> 0:08:45.681
<v Speaker 2>clear of mind. And because it was a strong character,

0:08:45.721 --> 0:08:48.641
<v Speaker 2>even though the pain came back, that wasn't an issue.

0:08:48.681 --> 0:08:51.241
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this man was a strong, strong man. You

0:08:51.241 --> 0:08:56.001
<v Speaker 2>know a bit of pain, you know he was going

0:08:56.001 --> 0:08:57.121
<v Speaker 2>to you know what I mean is it's sort of

0:08:57.121 --> 0:08:58.241
<v Speaker 2>getting on top of it.

0:08:59.001 --> 0:09:00.041
<v Speaker 4>He wasn't giving up.

0:09:00.241 --> 0:09:05.281
<v Speaker 2>It was just aware of just trying to get these

0:09:05.281 --> 0:09:06.641
<v Speaker 2>who tried and what.

0:09:06.561 --> 0:09:08.561
<v Speaker 1>Were the side effects that were horrible for him.

0:09:08.881 --> 0:09:12.241
<v Speaker 2>Look, he did have it did cause a bit of depression,

0:09:12.761 --> 0:09:14.721
<v Speaker 2>but he was aware of the depression and he spoke

0:09:14.761 --> 0:09:17.081
<v Speaker 2>to us about it. So you know, he'd actually reached

0:09:17.081 --> 0:09:19.201
<v Speaker 2>out a couple of times to his close.

0:09:19.001 --> 0:09:21.321
<v Speaker 4>Mate, and I commend him for that. Good on you.

0:09:21.321 --> 0:09:24.441
<v Speaker 2>You know, we need to all speak up if we're

0:09:24.481 --> 0:09:26.321
<v Speaker 2>not feeling one hundred percent, you know. But it was

0:09:26.401 --> 0:09:28.441
<v Speaker 2>just and that's where he wasn't just sitting in the

0:09:28.481 --> 0:09:31.441
<v Speaker 2>corner going and I'm giving up on life. He's breaching out,

0:09:31.561 --> 0:09:33.681
<v Speaker 2>you know. And it said to his mate, you know,

0:09:33.721 --> 0:09:36.041
<v Speaker 2>he goes, I'm obviously feeling pretty crappy right now. He

0:09:36.081 --> 0:09:38.081
<v Speaker 2>goes even in his own words, and I've got him

0:09:38.081 --> 0:09:40.161
<v Speaker 2>writing lucky, I'm not the suicidal type, and I've got

0:09:40.241 --> 0:09:41.161
<v Speaker 2>time on my side.

0:09:43.481 --> 0:09:46.121
<v Speaker 1>So Belle says her dad knew the GABA Pensen or

0:09:46.201 --> 0:09:48.481
<v Speaker 1>Neuronson was no good for him, and it gave him

0:09:48.521 --> 0:09:52.161
<v Speaker 1>horrible side effects. I wanted to know from a doctor

0:09:52.241 --> 0:09:55.121
<v Speaker 1>what this drug is actually used for, so I reached

0:09:55.121 --> 0:09:58.201
<v Speaker 1>out to a friend. It's call him Doctor J. He

0:09:58.281 --> 0:10:02.041
<v Speaker 1>specializes in pain medication and he'd know clinically how this

0:10:02.161 --> 0:10:03.761
<v Speaker 1>drug can affect someone.

0:10:04.121 --> 0:10:10.641
<v Speaker 7>So Doctor for lost count eleven years now, and as

0:10:10.681 --> 0:10:16.121
<v Speaker 7>part of that time, I've spent five years training to

0:10:16.161 --> 0:10:19.401
<v Speaker 7>be an anesthetics specialist, and as part of my anesthetic training,

0:10:19.761 --> 0:10:23.761
<v Speaker 7>we do specialize in the management of acute pain.

0:10:24.081 --> 0:10:27.321
<v Speaker 1>Can you explain what neurontity is and what it's generally

0:10:27.361 --> 0:10:28.081
<v Speaker 1>prescribed for.

0:10:28.281 --> 0:10:32.881
<v Speaker 7>So, neurons in the trade name of a medication called gabapentin,

0:10:33.761 --> 0:10:39.041
<v Speaker 7>So it's an anticonvulsant medication that's used to treat various

0:10:39.081 --> 0:10:42.201
<v Speaker 7>forms of epilepsy and other seizure disorders. But it's also

0:10:42.281 --> 0:10:45.641
<v Speaker 7>prescribed for what we call neuropathic pain. So that's essentially

0:10:45.761 --> 0:10:51.441
<v Speaker 7>pain arising from an dysfunctional disease of the nervous system.

0:10:52.521 --> 0:10:55.801
<v Speaker 7>So some examples of that are sort of diabetic neuropathy,

0:10:56.081 --> 0:11:02.041
<v Speaker 7>or pain that you get after having I guess postopadic neuralgia,

0:11:02.121 --> 0:11:05.041
<v Speaker 7>which is like shingles, and people get ongoing chmic pain

0:11:05.161 --> 0:11:07.361
<v Speaker 7>from that, and gabapentin can be used to try and

0:11:08.001 --> 0:11:13.641
<v Speaker 7>treat these pains. This nerve pain is quite notoriously difficult

0:11:13.681 --> 0:11:17.361
<v Speaker 7>to treat, and so often there are various other medications

0:11:17.361 --> 0:11:20.841
<v Speaker 7>that doctors try and use to treat this pain, and they're.

0:11:20.601 --> 0:11:22.681
<v Speaker 6>Not always effective.

0:11:23.241 --> 0:11:26.361
<v Speaker 7>So gabapentin is one of them that gets used, especially

0:11:26.361 --> 0:11:28.521
<v Speaker 7>in the treatment of sort of back pain or sciatica,

0:11:29.601 --> 0:11:33.761
<v Speaker 7>and then obviously they try and use opioids to try

0:11:33.761 --> 0:11:36.881
<v Speaker 7>and treat pain, but generally these are also quite ineffective.

0:11:37.641 --> 0:11:40.201
<v Speaker 1>And from your knowledge, what are some of the side

0:11:40.201 --> 0:11:42.841
<v Speaker 1>effects involved with taking gabapentin.

0:11:44.441 --> 0:11:47.521
<v Speaker 7>With any medication, and some of those side effects are

0:11:47.521 --> 0:11:51.161
<v Speaker 7>common and some are quite rare. If we think specifically

0:11:51.201 --> 0:11:54.721
<v Speaker 7>about the nervous system. The common things that get described

0:11:54.761 --> 0:12:00.481
<v Speaker 7>with gabapentin or neuronton business headache, somnolence, but they can

0:12:02.561 --> 0:12:07.961
<v Speaker 7>have other side effects like tremor and even concentration impairments.

0:12:08.281 --> 0:12:12.961
<v Speaker 7>With these medications, you can get some mood disturbances, so

0:12:13.081 --> 0:12:19.681
<v Speaker 7>common things. Common side effects cover pension include anxiety, confusion,

0:12:20.081 --> 0:12:25.561
<v Speaker 7>and depression. You can get insomnia, and then uncommonly or

0:12:25.641 --> 0:12:35.521
<v Speaker 7>rarely you can have emotional labile symptoms or agitation, aggression,

0:12:36.081 --> 0:12:43.081
<v Speaker 7>and very rarely psychotic disorders as well. Neurons also has

0:12:43.081 --> 0:12:49.921
<v Speaker 7>been recognized that it can contribute to feelings of depression

0:12:50.081 --> 0:12:55.641
<v Speaker 7>and suicidal idiation. It's even mentioned in the product disclosure

0:12:55.841 --> 0:12:58.681
<v Speaker 7>statement or the product information statement that comes inside the

0:12:58.681 --> 0:13:03.081
<v Speaker 7>box and a statement in there that says patients on

0:13:03.121 --> 0:13:06.761
<v Speaker 7>these medications need to be monitored, worth need symptoms of

0:13:06.801 --> 0:13:10.881
<v Speaker 7>depression or suicidal thoughtful behavior, or any other unusual changes

0:13:10.961 --> 0:13:11.481
<v Speaker 7>in them moves.

0:13:11.681 --> 0:13:14.241
<v Speaker 1>The other interesting thing that came up after speaking with

0:13:14.321 --> 0:13:17.081
<v Speaker 1>doctor j was a bit that I originally missed in

0:13:17.121 --> 0:13:21.041
<v Speaker 1>my read through of the coroner's report. The report said

0:13:21.081 --> 0:13:25.321
<v Speaker 1>that on May eleventh, twenty seventeen, just six weeks before

0:13:25.401 --> 0:13:29.041
<v Speaker 1>Jawn went missing, he went to a chemist and got

0:13:29.041 --> 0:13:34.361
<v Speaker 1>a prescription filled for one hundred Neuronson tablets. In a

0:13:34.401 --> 0:13:36.561
<v Speaker 1>follow up text with Belle, she says there was no

0:13:36.681 --> 0:13:39.761
<v Speaker 1>way he used those tablets. As she said earlier in

0:13:39.761 --> 0:13:42.361
<v Speaker 1>the podcast, he was weaning off this drug that was

0:13:42.401 --> 0:13:46.081
<v Speaker 1>giving him depression. When police and family searched his home,

0:13:46.801 --> 0:13:50.601
<v Speaker 1>there was no neuronton left in his pillbox. Doctor Jay

0:13:50.681 --> 0:13:54.241
<v Speaker 1>explains that coming off a drug like neuronton is usually

0:13:54.241 --> 0:13:57.921
<v Speaker 1>a slow process, and coming off the drug too quickly

0:13:58.521 --> 0:13:59.921
<v Speaker 1>can be even more troublesome.

0:14:01.121 --> 0:14:04.921
<v Speaker 7>So any patient's been on these medications for a significant

0:14:05.081 --> 0:14:09.721
<v Speaker 7>in it a period of time, they can get physical dependence,

0:14:09.721 --> 0:14:12.241
<v Speaker 7>whereas the body gets used to the drug, and upon

0:14:12.481 --> 0:14:17.201
<v Speaker 7>sort of immediate cessation, they get withdrawal symptoms. And withdrawal

0:14:17.281 --> 0:14:19.721
<v Speaker 7>symptoms tend to be some of the things we've mentioned,

0:14:19.721 --> 0:14:28.561
<v Speaker 7>but also dysphoria, irritability, anxiety, even backape, joint pains, abdominal cramps, LAWNSA, vomiting.

0:14:30.561 --> 0:14:36.281
<v Speaker 6>The period of withdrawal, all the time taken from stopping

0:14:36.321 --> 0:14:39.921
<v Speaker 6>the medication to having those withraw withdrawal symptoms does depend

0:14:39.961 --> 0:14:41.961
<v Speaker 6>on the dose that you've been on and how long

0:14:42.001 --> 0:14:43.441
<v Speaker 6>you've been it's.

0:14:43.041 --> 0:14:47.041
<v Speaker 7>Been on the medication for, but can vary between sort

0:14:47.041 --> 0:14:50.561
<v Speaker 7>of you know, a day to a week or so.

0:14:54.281 --> 0:14:56.961
<v Speaker 7>When you are going to stop these medications best done

0:14:57.001 --> 0:15:00.561
<v Speaker 7>with the assistance or the physician that prescribes the drugs

0:15:00.561 --> 0:15:04.561
<v Speaker 7>regularly so that they can guide you in dose reduction,

0:15:05.081 --> 0:15:09.161
<v Speaker 7>and usually that's done over a period of weeks to months,

0:15:09.201 --> 0:15:12.921
<v Speaker 7>even depending on how long you've been on the medication

0:15:13.001 --> 0:15:15.881
<v Speaker 7>and how the dose he's been taken.

0:15:17.641 --> 0:15:19.721
<v Speaker 1>So we know that this drug is pretty heavy and

0:15:19.761 --> 0:15:22.441
<v Speaker 1>as Belle said, she didn't feel it was right for

0:15:22.521 --> 0:15:26.201
<v Speaker 1>her dad. This correlates with the doctor's notes about Jawn's

0:15:26.281 --> 0:15:30.681
<v Speaker 1>visit he made to his GP in January, February and

0:15:30.841 --> 0:15:38.681
<v Speaker 1>March of twenty seventeen. In January twenty seventeen, which is

0:15:38.721 --> 0:15:40.521
<v Speaker 1>the year he went missing, he went to his GP.

0:15:41.041 --> 0:15:45.601
<v Speaker 1>As you've mentioned, quite depressed. The coroner's report says that

0:15:45.681 --> 0:15:48.441
<v Speaker 1>his consequent visit back to the GP a month later

0:15:48.521 --> 0:15:51.241
<v Speaker 1>and then again the following month was, in his words

0:15:51.241 --> 0:15:53.881
<v Speaker 1>from the doctor's notes, really good now and fantastic. So

0:15:54.201 --> 0:15:59.321
<v Speaker 1>there is proof your dad was suffering some depression in

0:15:59.401 --> 0:16:02.561
<v Speaker 1>early January and then was able to come out of

0:16:02.601 --> 0:16:06.601
<v Speaker 1>that fog due to the medication he was coming off

0:16:06.681 --> 0:16:08.441
<v Speaker 1>and equally his own management of that.

0:16:09.481 --> 0:16:12.561
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely absolutely, I mean, can I just read you a

0:16:12.601 --> 0:16:13.241
<v Speaker 2>little bit of an.

0:16:13.121 --> 0:16:15.161
<v Speaker 4>Excerpt here from the incident summary.

0:16:16.121 --> 0:16:18.601
<v Speaker 2>I just thought it was quite interesting, and this was

0:16:19.921 --> 0:16:21.961
<v Speaker 2>noted pretty much on the twenty eighth of June. So

0:16:22.041 --> 0:16:25.001
<v Speaker 2>this is the second day of the search up in Lancelin. Confirmed,

0:16:25.081 --> 0:16:27.801
<v Speaker 2>as you said, confirmed no signs of dementia. Cided by

0:16:27.841 --> 0:16:30.001
<v Speaker 2>the doctor last week and was very clear in the head,

0:16:30.161 --> 0:16:33.481
<v Speaker 2>appeared chirpy, you know, and had good pain control. He

0:16:33.641 --> 0:16:37.441
<v Speaker 2>commented that he's not suffering from debtsive depression, and during

0:16:37.481 --> 0:16:41.521
<v Speaker 2>his treatment at no time as he indicated suicidal tendencies.

0:16:42.841 --> 0:16:43.601
<v Speaker 4>That's from the GP.

0:16:46.121 --> 0:16:48.561
<v Speaker 1>We're going to step just a couple of months back

0:16:48.601 --> 0:16:51.921
<v Speaker 1>to before your dad went missing. He fell down some stairs.

0:16:52.321 --> 0:16:56.281
<v Speaker 2>Look, that's a weird one, that fall has never sat

0:16:56.361 --> 0:16:59.521
<v Speaker 2>well with me, I'll be honest. That was actually what

0:16:59.561 --> 0:17:02.081
<v Speaker 2>sort of set him back, and that at the time

0:17:02.281 --> 0:17:04.400
<v Speaker 2>of his disappearance, it wasn't all the other stuff that

0:17:04.441 --> 0:17:06.160
<v Speaker 2>was going on, was that fall, because that was a

0:17:06.161 --> 0:17:07.001
<v Speaker 2>pretty years ful.

0:17:07.241 --> 0:17:10.841
<v Speaker 4>When I say fall, I have I have doubts over

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:11.840
<v Speaker 4>that particular day.

0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:16.521
<v Speaker 2>It was Easter Sunday, and you know, Dad had already

0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:20.481
<v Speaker 2>had had a fall from lower down in these stairs

0:17:20.481 --> 0:17:22.440
<v Speaker 2>because he's got brick stairs at the front of his house.

0:17:22.921 --> 0:17:24.400
<v Speaker 4>Now, I can't remember when.

0:17:24.441 --> 0:17:27.681
<v Speaker 2>It was, probably I don't know, December twenty sixteen or something.

0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 2>He had actually had a little slip from the bottom

0:17:30.120 --> 0:17:30.600
<v Speaker 2>of the stairs.

0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:32.401
<v Speaker 4>It was only you know, two stairs.

0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Because at the time, unfortunately, someone thought it would be

0:17:35.921 --> 0:17:41.160
<v Speaker 2>a good idea for him to trial marijuana and you know,

0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:44.600
<v Speaker 2>encourage that and provided that to him. And at first

0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:46.360
<v Speaker 2>I meet at it and he had a fault.

0:17:46.521 --> 0:17:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Was that medical marijuana or was it just normal?

0:17:49.241 --> 0:17:53.120
<v Speaker 4>No, And it's something that he'd never had in his life.

0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.480
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think he should have ever been introduced

0:17:56.001 --> 0:17:59.120
<v Speaker 2>into into the mix at all. But I think that

0:17:59.281 --> 0:18:01.840
<v Speaker 2>was the cause of that particular fall, and he felt

0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.281
<v Speaker 2>like an idiot, you know, he's like, oh, you know,

0:18:04.321 --> 0:18:07.001
<v Speaker 2>but it didn't really has stained too many injuries, okay.

0:18:08.761 --> 0:18:11.440
<v Speaker 4>But this particular fall, it was pretty substantial.

0:18:12.721 --> 0:18:15.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking it was from the top this time, the

0:18:15.201 --> 0:18:19.321
<v Speaker 2>top of these brick stairs. And apparently it's written down

0:18:19.360 --> 0:18:22.521
<v Speaker 2>that he just slipped on his slippers, and it's been

0:18:22.561 --> 0:18:24.880
<v Speaker 2>a bit downplayed a little bit. But you know, I

0:18:24.921 --> 0:18:27.561
<v Speaker 2>look at his photos of his injuries and I don't know,

0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:30.120
<v Speaker 2>like if he was wearing slippers. You know, his toe

0:18:30.201 --> 0:18:33.201
<v Speaker 2>has been fully sliced and cut open, and he's got

0:18:33.201 --> 0:18:36.281
<v Speaker 2>a massive egg on his right hand arm and up

0:18:36.321 --> 0:18:39.201
<v Speaker 2>here and apparently he's put his arm down your hand

0:18:39.201 --> 0:18:41.440
<v Speaker 2>to protect his face, and you know, his hands you know,

0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.561
<v Speaker 2>shattered and broken his wrist, and I mean they only

0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:48.121
<v Speaker 2>realized in June, not long before he went missing, that

0:18:48.120 --> 0:18:50.521
<v Speaker 2>that he had actually shattered all the bones in his

0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:54.321
<v Speaker 2>hand as well, and that wasn't picked up at the time,

0:18:54.640 --> 0:18:56.761
<v Speaker 2>you know, and he was told unfortunately now it's sort

0:18:56.761 --> 0:18:58.721
<v Speaker 2>of too light for more surgery.

0:18:59.281 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 4>You probably do need more surgery down the track.

0:19:01.201 --> 0:19:04.641
<v Speaker 8>But well, thinking about it now, we don't know if

0:19:04.681 --> 0:19:06.721
<v Speaker 8>that was a fall or not, or if something else

0:19:06.761 --> 0:19:10.801
<v Speaker 8>happened on that day, but we don't have any evidence

0:19:10.801 --> 0:19:13.720
<v Speaker 8>of anything, but we have doubts over that one. But

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:16.280
<v Speaker 8>as Well said, that was really his main problem at

0:19:16.321 --> 0:19:18.200
<v Speaker 8>the time because it had got ontop other things. It

0:19:18.281 --> 0:19:20.080
<v Speaker 8>was just this badly broken wrist.

0:19:20.921 --> 0:19:23.001
<v Speaker 2>Was that that was in April. That was you know,

0:19:23.041 --> 0:19:25.280
<v Speaker 2>middle of April, and before that March. You know how

0:19:25.281 --> 0:19:28.281
<v Speaker 2>we said the GPS, he's feeling fantastic. Dad had tried

0:19:28.321 --> 0:19:29.680
<v Speaker 2>to go play nine holes of golf.

0:19:30.321 --> 0:19:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Jawn wasn't a well man chronic pain, swollen feet and

0:19:34.281 --> 0:19:36.920
<v Speaker 1>a broken wrist, with a bunch of different tablets to

0:19:36.921 --> 0:19:41.281
<v Speaker 1>control those medical issues. He had indicated some issues with

0:19:41.360 --> 0:19:44.360
<v Speaker 1>depression which may have been caused by the medication he

0:19:44.481 --> 0:19:47.321
<v Speaker 1>was on, or simply by him not being as agile

0:19:47.321 --> 0:19:49.881
<v Speaker 1>as he used to be. But it would seem from

0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:53.080
<v Speaker 1>the doctor's report a few days before his disappearance he

0:19:53.241 --> 0:19:58.401
<v Speaker 1>was okay. In fact, in the GP's words, he was chirpy.

0:19:59.321 --> 0:20:02.201
<v Speaker 1>In the coroner's report, which was delivered in October last

0:20:02.281 --> 0:20:06.761
<v Speaker 1>year in Perth, the coroner stated that Belle, his daughter,

0:20:07.241 --> 0:20:11.321
<v Speaker 1>had said that at some point her dad had told

0:20:11.360 --> 0:20:14.681
<v Speaker 1>her that drowning would be the worst possible way to go.

0:20:15.801 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Belle also made a statement to the police, saying that

0:20:18.801 --> 0:20:21.561
<v Speaker 1>if there was any chance of mister Jensen taking his life,

0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:25.120
<v Speaker 1>he would have done so at Mula Lou Beach, a

0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:28.281
<v Speaker 1>place of great comfort to him, where he felt closest

0:20:28.281 --> 0:20:32.041
<v Speaker 1>to his wife. When Bell gave evidence during the inquest,

0:20:32.521 --> 0:20:35.201
<v Speaker 1>she was adamant that at the time of his disappearance,

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:37.361
<v Speaker 1>her dad was not suicidal.

0:20:38.241 --> 0:20:43.600
<v Speaker 4>See my words have been twisted. Okay, So around the time.

0:20:43.481 --> 0:20:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Of the search, did you have that conversation with him?

0:20:45.721 --> 0:20:48.801
<v Speaker 4>I didn't have around drowning. We were open about life

0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:49.281
<v Speaker 4>and death.

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:53.521
<v Speaker 2>Having found my mum, you know, in the home, we

0:20:53.561 --> 0:20:57.081
<v Speaker 2>did have conversations about that. But our conversations were, oh

0:20:57.120 --> 0:20:58.921
<v Speaker 2>my god, thank god she was at home.

0:20:59.120 --> 0:20:59.761
<v Speaker 4>Thank god.

0:21:00.360 --> 0:21:02.561
<v Speaker 2>We literally said she wasn't missing because we had that

0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:04.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty four hour PIO where she technically was.

0:21:05.041 --> 0:21:07.401
<v Speaker 1>They all talk to me about the morning of Sunday,

0:21:07.441 --> 0:21:11.321
<v Speaker 1>the twenty fifth of June twenty seventeen, you were going

0:21:11.321 --> 0:21:12.360
<v Speaker 1>to lunch as a family.

0:21:12.561 --> 0:21:15.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, actually no, it wasn't actually sort of planned like that.

0:21:15.521 --> 0:21:18.680
<v Speaker 2>I knew that Dad was catching up with Kennan Geza,

0:21:18.721 --> 0:21:20.801
<v Speaker 2>and normally I was actually the one that used to

0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:23.080
<v Speaker 2>go with lunch to lunch with him. I'd take him,

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 2>and i'd We've done that at quite a few times.

0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:28.521
<v Speaker 2>This particular time, I was really busy, as I said,

0:21:28.521 --> 0:21:31.160
<v Speaker 2>we work, and I was working from home, and you know,

0:21:31.201 --> 0:21:34.321
<v Speaker 2>i'd actually just dropped the kids down at Grandma's house

0:21:34.441 --> 0:21:37.600
<v Speaker 2>down in Clement and yeah, just before twelve, I remember,

0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:40.041
<v Speaker 2>because they'd had lunch booked in for sort.

0:21:39.961 --> 0:21:41.240
<v Speaker 4>Of one or one thirty I think it was.

0:21:42.561 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 2>And I just rang him on the way home and

0:21:44.241 --> 0:21:47.160
<v Speaker 2>I just said, I'm making sure my sister's still taking you,

0:21:47.281 --> 0:21:48.920
<v Speaker 2>because she did have a bit of a history of

0:21:48.961 --> 0:21:51.480
<v Speaker 2>sort of canceling on him last minute, and if that

0:21:51.561 --> 0:21:53.200
<v Speaker 2>was a case, then I was definitely gonna, you know,

0:21:53.241 --> 0:21:53.961
<v Speaker 2>sort of step.

0:21:53.761 --> 0:21:56.761
<v Speaker 4>In and take him. And it just han't been that conversation.

0:21:56.801 --> 0:21:58.440
<v Speaker 2>I was a bitty why don't you come, you know,

0:21:59.481 --> 0:22:01.480
<v Speaker 2>And I'm you know, I'm so glad I made that

0:22:01.521 --> 0:22:03.640
<v Speaker 2>decisional and you know what, Yeah, yeah, I'll come.

0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:06.481
<v Speaker 4>I'm glad I did because that was the last time

0:22:06.481 --> 0:22:07.000
<v Speaker 4>I saw him.

0:22:09.681 --> 0:22:12.201
<v Speaker 1>So Belle, her sister, dad, and a few friends catch

0:22:12.281 --> 0:22:15.721
<v Speaker 1>up for lunch at Hillary's Boat Harbor at Dome Cafe.

0:22:16.521 --> 0:22:20.481
<v Speaker 1>It's Perth in June. The place is buzzing family's doing

0:22:20.521 --> 0:22:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the same thing as Bell and her sister visitors, browsing

0:22:25.120 --> 0:22:28.721
<v Speaker 1>the shops on the boardwalk, kids with ice creams and

0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:33.440
<v Speaker 1>idyllic Sunday afternoon in sunny Perth. Belle clearly remembers her

0:22:33.481 --> 0:22:34.881
<v Speaker 1>dad's frame of mind that day.

0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:36.041
<v Speaker 4>He was happy.

0:22:36.521 --> 0:22:38.961
<v Speaker 2>Everything was fine, like he was in good spirits. There

0:22:39.041 --> 0:22:42.440
<v Speaker 2>was there was nothing that stood out as me to

0:22:42.481 --> 0:22:47.041
<v Speaker 2>be concerned or worried, you know, it was it was

0:22:47.441 --> 0:22:48.160
<v Speaker 2>a nice lunch.

0:22:50.400 --> 0:22:50.561
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:52.561
<v Speaker 2>The only thing I regret is, you know, when we

0:22:53.160 --> 0:22:55.721
<v Speaker 2>when we got home, we all went in the same car,

0:22:55.801 --> 0:22:59.121
<v Speaker 2>and you know, my sister took us home. The only

0:22:59.120 --> 0:23:01.521
<v Speaker 2>regret I had is not actually going in, you know,

0:23:01.521 --> 0:23:03.721
<v Speaker 2>because I pretty much we drove off straight away in

0:23:03.721 --> 0:23:08.041
<v Speaker 2>our separate cars, and i'd sort of gone in and

0:23:08.041 --> 0:23:10.961
<v Speaker 2>and I guess spoken to him because in hindsight now

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:13.041
<v Speaker 2>I realized that there probably were things that he did

0:23:13.080 --> 0:23:16.200
<v Speaker 2>want to talk about. But no, on that particular he

0:23:16.360 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 2>was fine. And even Kennan geez I said, you know,

0:23:17.961 --> 0:23:20.801
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about catching up for Christmas in July again,

0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:23.440
<v Speaker 2>because I'd gone, you know, with all those guys and

0:23:23.481 --> 0:23:25.561
<v Speaker 2>we'd had a beautiful lunch, you know. The previous Christmas

0:23:25.561 --> 0:23:27.400
<v Speaker 2>in July, and we said, let's do that again. You know,

0:23:27.481 --> 0:23:31.360
<v Speaker 2>we had plans for the future.

0:23:32.041 --> 0:23:34.041
<v Speaker 1>So this is Sunday afternoon. When did you expect to

0:23:34.041 --> 0:23:34.801
<v Speaker 1>see your dad again?

0:23:34.921 --> 0:23:37.321
<v Speaker 2>Probably the next night or within a couple of days,

0:23:37.360 --> 0:23:40.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, I was, I was, you know, seeing him regularly.

0:23:40.681 --> 0:23:41.321
<v Speaker 4>Not not as much.

0:23:41.321 --> 0:23:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean I have a young family and working hard,

0:23:43.481 --> 0:23:46.281
<v Speaker 2>but certainly within a couple of days, you know, I'd

0:23:46.281 --> 0:23:49.761
<v Speaker 2>at least speak to him, like very regularly, you know.

0:23:51.521 --> 0:23:53.961
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I certainly did not expect that. The last

0:23:54.001 --> 0:23:55.241
<v Speaker 2>time I didn't but see my dad.

0:23:58.761 --> 0:24:02.321
<v Speaker 1>That afternoon would be the last time. Anybody reported seeing

0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:07.360
<v Speaker 1>John again. The next morning, at around six forty five am,

0:24:07.681 --> 0:24:10.840
<v Speaker 1>John Jensen's neighbor headed out to her car to go

0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:15.321
<v Speaker 1>to work on Monday, the twenty sixth of June twenty seventeen.

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:19.521
<v Speaker 1>As she walks down her driveway, she looks across the

0:24:19.600 --> 0:24:23.480
<v Speaker 1>road and sees that Jawn's garage door is open and

0:24:23.561 --> 0:24:27.640
<v Speaker 1>his car is not there. She found this unusual, and

0:24:27.721 --> 0:24:30.680
<v Speaker 1>she hadn't seen John drive for a few weeks, but

0:24:30.761 --> 0:24:34.041
<v Speaker 1>she also knew his daughters sometimes drove his car, so

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:46.241
<v Speaker 1>she left for work at four point fifteen that same day,

0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the neighbor arrives home and Jahn's car is still missing

0:24:50.840 --> 0:24:55.761
<v Speaker 1>and the garage door is still wide open. She now

0:24:55.801 --> 0:24:58.561
<v Speaker 1>thinks this is strange, but she didn't want to be

0:24:58.561 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>a sticky beak, so she waited a few hours, and

0:25:02.041 --> 0:25:04.761
<v Speaker 1>then at seven oh two that night, Belle receives a

0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:11.920
<v Speaker 1>ten from her sister. Belle's sister, who first got the

0:25:11.961 --> 0:25:14.360
<v Speaker 1>text from the neighbor, had been at the dentist that

0:25:14.441 --> 0:25:17.680
<v Speaker 1>day for surgery, so I couldn't really talk, so she

0:25:17.840 --> 0:25:21.041
<v Speaker 1>texted her sister Bell and asked if she could head

0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:23.401
<v Speaker 1>to their dad's house to see what was happening.

0:25:24.281 --> 0:25:29.160
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know anything was wrong until about eight thirty

0:25:29.561 --> 0:25:34.001
<v Speaker 2>that night. I saw a text message from my sisters saying,

0:25:34.120 --> 0:25:37.440
<v Speaker 2>can you go check on dad? You know, the neighbor's

0:25:37.441 --> 0:25:39.480
<v Speaker 2>saying that the his garage door has been up and

0:25:39.481 --> 0:25:44.321
<v Speaker 2>his car's gone. And I was like what, So I

0:25:44.321 --> 0:25:45.360
<v Speaker 2>immediately called his house.

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:48.201
<v Speaker 4>I'm obviously got no answer.

0:25:47.961 --> 0:25:51.321
<v Speaker 2>And I looked down and gone, is this gonna happen

0:25:51.360 --> 0:25:55.080
<v Speaker 2>all over again? Immediately having gone through it with Mum,

0:25:55.281 --> 0:25:58.241
<v Speaker 2>you think the worst, of course.

0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:00.001
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, I was panicking.

0:26:00.001 --> 0:26:02.681
<v Speaker 2>I was I was shaking and I'm like, no, I'm

0:26:02.681 --> 0:26:04.200
<v Speaker 2>going to do this, and I'm trying to tell myself

0:26:04.241 --> 0:26:06.600
<v Speaker 2>how it better than last time? Felt I'm so angry

0:26:06.640 --> 0:26:08.640
<v Speaker 2>at myself for what I did with mom, and I

0:26:08.681 --> 0:26:10.360
<v Speaker 2>was like, just handle this situation better.

0:26:11.600 --> 0:26:14.360
<v Speaker 4>But anyway, I was. I was lucky that the neighbor

0:26:14.441 --> 0:26:14.961
<v Speaker 4>was out the front.

0:26:15.201 --> 0:26:17.720
<v Speaker 2>She was loving, you know, and obviously very caring and

0:26:17.721 --> 0:26:19.480
<v Speaker 2>looking after him, and she was worried, you know. She

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.761
<v Speaker 2>was out the front looking stressed, and she met me

0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:27.041
<v Speaker 2>there and I said, were you coming with me? So

0:26:27.041 --> 0:26:29.001
<v Speaker 2>so I found my mum dead, you know, and she goes,

0:26:29.041 --> 0:26:31.521
<v Speaker 2>of course, we're not. I'm so grateful she did that.

0:26:33.001 --> 0:26:36.121
<v Speaker 2>So I went and got the key because he kept

0:26:36.160 --> 0:26:39.360
<v Speaker 2>to get spare key in the garage.

0:26:39.801 --> 0:26:39.961
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:26:40.001 --> 0:26:41.801
<v Speaker 2>I went to use it to walk in the house,

0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:44.961
<v Speaker 2>but the door was unlocked, and that was very unusual.

0:26:45.360 --> 0:26:50.161
<v Speaker 2>That always kept his door locked. So I thought, well, hey,

0:26:50.201 --> 0:26:53.720
<v Speaker 2>that's unusual. And second thing that unusual that there was

0:26:53.721 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 2>no lights on. You know, we're talking sort of eight

0:26:56.321 --> 0:26:59.001
<v Speaker 2>forty probably around that time, and it was pitch black.

0:26:59.080 --> 0:27:01.440
<v Speaker 4>I thought, what's going on here? Because even the neighbor

0:27:01.441 --> 0:27:03.161
<v Speaker 4>would say he always had that front light on because

0:27:03.360 --> 0:27:07.041
<v Speaker 4>that's where he lived that front land room. That's that's

0:27:07.041 --> 0:27:09.001
<v Speaker 4>pretty much where he lived, in his recliner and watching

0:27:09.001 --> 0:27:12.241
<v Speaker 4>your TV. So anyway, yeah, walked in and.

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:17.840
<v Speaker 2>What looked like, initially this sounds odd, but sort of

0:27:17.840 --> 0:27:20.840
<v Speaker 2>feathers scattered in the distance in the kitchen area.

0:27:20.840 --> 0:27:23.120
<v Speaker 4>And I was like, what's going on over there? And

0:27:23.160 --> 0:27:24.960
<v Speaker 4>I put the light on and then I just saw blood.

0:27:26.721 --> 0:27:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all these blood footprints pretty much what it was

0:27:30.481 --> 0:27:32.801
<v Speaker 2>very in your face then, and there was there was

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:34.601
<v Speaker 2>quite a lot of blood, and I was like, what the.

0:27:34.681 --> 0:27:35.480
<v Speaker 4>Hell has happened here?

0:27:35.481 --> 0:27:39.801
<v Speaker 2>And I yelled out, and the neighbor yelled out, and

0:27:40.761 --> 0:27:43.561
<v Speaker 2>I noticed it with a small glass pane was broken.

0:27:44.360 --> 0:27:45.600
<v Speaker 2>And at the time, I'm like, oh my god, has

0:27:45.600 --> 0:27:48.241
<v Speaker 2>he accidentally hurt himself. He's got a hospital, he's got

0:27:48.321 --> 0:27:49.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, what the hell has happened?

0:27:49.600 --> 0:27:50.640
<v Speaker 4>I did not know.

0:27:50.681 --> 0:27:52.920
<v Speaker 2>Million things from through your head, and I didn't want

0:27:52.961 --> 0:27:55.281
<v Speaker 2>to make the same mistakes again. It's caught my husband.

0:27:56.041 --> 0:27:57.960
<v Speaker 2>That was I just had to That was just the

0:27:57.961 --> 0:28:01.241
<v Speaker 2>first thing I thought to do. And then he called

0:28:01.281 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 2>the police. So yeah, we just waited for them to arrive,

0:28:09.600 --> 0:28:14.001
<v Speaker 2>and it was, Yeah, it was really really bizarre, really

0:28:14.041 --> 0:28:15.561
<v Speaker 2>really really Bizarren.

0:28:15.640 --> 0:28:16.761
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember the call from Bell?

0:28:17.321 --> 0:28:21.401
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, look, when she left, you knew something that was up.

0:28:21.721 --> 0:28:24.521
<v Speaker 8>It was unusual for Jessmer's card not to be there.

0:28:24.521 --> 0:28:26.920
<v Speaker 8>And then soon as I got the call and I

0:28:27.120 --> 0:28:30.881
<v Speaker 8>just heard blood everywhere, I didn't know if something had

0:28:30.961 --> 0:28:33.640
<v Speaker 8>recently happened, or if someone was still in the house

0:28:33.681 --> 0:28:35.920
<v Speaker 8>and something could happen. So I just got off the

0:28:35.921 --> 0:28:38.641
<v Speaker 8>phone straight away and called the police and just gave

0:28:38.721 --> 0:28:42.401
<v Speaker 8>him a brief description, file in law's missing, this blood

0:28:42.401 --> 0:28:44.081
<v Speaker 8>in the house. I don't know if anyone else is

0:28:44.121 --> 0:28:48.240
<v Speaker 8>in the house. I didn't know if my wife was

0:28:48.281 --> 0:28:51.760
<v Speaker 8>in danger or anything like that. So that's what I

0:28:51.801 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 8>told them, and they raced over there. As it turns out,

0:28:55.001 --> 0:28:56.801
<v Speaker 8>it was just the scene at the house and no

0:28:56.841 --> 0:29:03.241
<v Speaker 8>one else there. But then, yeah, it's this was totally unexpected.

0:29:03.641 --> 0:29:06.441
<v Speaker 1>In the next episode of Dad's Gone.

0:29:06.161 --> 0:29:09.881
<v Speaker 5>Well, the discovery of John Jensen's car outside the Lancelon

0:29:09.921 --> 0:29:13.001
<v Speaker 5>Beach Hotel is a big breakthrough in the police search

0:29:13.161 --> 0:29:14.921
<v Speaker 5>for the missing Ocean Reef grants.

0:29:15.241 --> 0:29:18.161
<v Speaker 9>The investigation in those early days changed the thin as

0:29:18.201 --> 0:29:21.280
<v Speaker 9>that vehicle is located, because that what they gave us

0:29:21.361 --> 0:29:24.841
<v Speaker 9>was the last known position on this CCTVA. If you

0:29:24.841 --> 0:29:26.561
<v Speaker 9>can't see who is in the vehicle.

0:29:27.081 --> 0:29:28.841
<v Speaker 1>In your opinion, could your dad drive?

0:29:29.961 --> 0:29:31.921
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:29:31.921 --> 0:29:34.801
<v Speaker 2>No, especially especially after that form no.

0:29:34.961 --> 0:29:38.241
<v Speaker 9>I was unable to confirm during the investigation who was

0:29:38.321 --> 0:29:41.121
<v Speaker 9>driving that vehicle or even how many passengers in that

0:29:42.921 --> 0:29:48.001
<v Speaker 9>The initial assessment of the investigation that continues to this

0:29:48.121 --> 0:29:52.561
<v Speaker 9>day is that no evidence of any criminality has been located.

0:29:53.201 --> 0:29:56.281
<v Speaker 2>Silence is not what you need when you have this

0:29:56.441 --> 0:29:59.401
<v Speaker 2>type of ambiguous loss. You need people to speak up

0:29:59.601 --> 0:30:01.441
<v Speaker 2>and there are people that know what happened to my dad.
