A video on the disappearance of Danny Walsh the bootlegger would be great.
This one always breaks my heart no matter how many times I've heard it. Couldn't imagine ALL 3 KIDS taken. The parents..idk..idk how you reconcile with it.
This one reminds me of the Sodder children case
I just wanted to say, how many times have we seen botched kidnapping? The Chowchilla, bus incident, the young girl in Japan that was kidnapped from a wealth and family. Both of these were kidnapping that went horribly wrong because the idiot perps couldn’t figure out how to ask for the $$💰! I wonder if something like that happened here? I mean, obviously cops think they are dead bc they’ve searched multiple properties of many suspects—recently! I think this is one of them unknowable! Unfortunately.
I think the kids were, sadly, abducted
Do a video about the Brabant killers
There's some news footage of the search for the Beaumont's where a group of bystanders are on a jetty watching the Police conduct a search. In amongst the crowd is Bevan Spencer Von Einem.
I’m sure this man abducted them and killed them. They will probably never be found
I think they were most likely abducted.
No refection on the parents,and this is just my opinion,but a nine year old is too young, to be responsible,for two younger children.
I suspect they were abducted by an unknown man, that wasn't really unknown to them but had groomed them for some time so they would follow him without question or suspicion.
The oldest girl seems to have a certain "glow" about her, like she had a crush and was secretely in love with somebody. Now, this is an extremely controversial subject, since it concerns a girl of such a young age. Even if it wasn't sexual feelings on her part, she could still have been deeply in love, as in the puppy love children can display at that age.
If the perpetrator was a young man but an adult nonetheless, she may have wanted to keep her feelings secret. And if so, he may have groomed her over time so that she would trust him, like giving her presents or money. Like the money they used to pay for those snacks. Perhaps he had met them on previous occassions on the beach and bought them ice cream? If so, they wouldn't have objected leaving the beach with him, if he had suggested it.
Personally I think there was an accident and the children were swept out to sea. Eyewitness accounts are notoriously fickle, dates and times aren’t recalled exactly. Sightings of the children could be other kids. It’s a bit hard for three children to disappear off the face and the earth
Yalding think this one is mad!
Their dad as on a business trip to.Snow Town
LOOK UP THE SHIT THAT WENT DOWN IN SNOW TOWN
I think Michael Jackson took them
I think this predator spend some time grooming these kids. I don't think these kids would have gone with him after just having met him. No he played with and talked to them before. So he probably said he would walk with them to the bus stop. He stalled a bit to make sure they missed the bus. Than he said , look I have a car. I can bring you home. They agreed and once in his car they were trapped. I don't want to think about what he did to them after he had them. But once he had his way with them, he killed them and made them disappear.
I remember my parents discussing this horror. A crime of this heinous nature was incomprehensible in Australia in 1966 .
I think the accident die to the sea should b looked more into
Very obviously abducted by lad seen with them, no idea how he hid 3 dead children, no idea how he achieved it all, but he did.
Check out Psychic Scott Russell Hill-he knew the kids-his father said he saw the kids with 2 men and 1 woman. One of the men was linked to a stable in the area-and Harry Phipps lived close to where they were seen walking. Apparently the Beaumonts had BBQ's and Scott suspects that is how the kids knew the man. He bought them lunch-offered to show them some horses and to drop them home later.
Please make a video on Jack Donald Lewis (The Cat Man)
This story has always fascinated me. So heartbreaking. It would be so good to find anwers and put them to rest 😢❤
Seems like it would be difficult to kidnap three at one time. It seems like at least one could have escaped. Unless there was a helper like Myra Hinley helped Ian Brady in the Moors murders.
There is ample evidence implicating Harry Phipps in the abduction, torture, rape and murder of the Beaumont children. A relatively recent episode of 60 Minutes Australia featured an in-depth investigation by popular journalist and news personality, Tara Brown, who revealed some seemingly credible new evidence surrounding the mysterious disappearance. Piecing together bits of information revealed by the late son of Harry Phipps, Hayden Phipps, in interviews conducted shortly prior to his death in 2016, Brown was able to locate a childhood friend of Hayden's who had allegedly been hanging out with Hayden on the day of the disappearance and corroborated his claim of having witnessed the children at the Phipps house. According to the friend, he and Hayden had walked in on Harry beating the children with a switch of some sort in the kitchen. The children had allegedly been only partially dressed and were sitting on the kitchen counter side-by-side, screaming and crying hysterically as Mr. Phipps whipped them repeatedly. Upon stumbling across this heinous scene, Hayden and his friend had apparently startled Mr. Phipps, sending him into a violent, angry rage wherein he began swatting the two young teen boys who quickly fled the scene. According to the friend, Mr. Phipps later that afternoon allegedly threatened to murder the friend's parents and baby sister if he dared to tell anyone about what he had witnessed. And apparently the kid kept his word, as he told no one about any of this until he had been contacted by Tara Brown for the interview.
Another interesting detail revealed on the same show is the reason why investigators haven't pursued any of these leads and why they continue to maintain a curiously ambiguous silence on the case. In a brief statement issued to 60 Minutes Australia by an attorney spokesperson for Wade Phipps, Hayden's younger brother and the only still living member of the family, Wade categorically denies any involvement or wrongdoing by their father, describing the claims as "entirely fictitious and slanderous " and attributing them to a "construct of [Hayden's] extremely impaired state of mental health" during the time he began making these claims.
Hayden, who did indeed suffer from mental illness and had allegedly been residing in a mental health facility during the last 3 years of his life, had claimed in an interview with the press shortly before his death that he and his brother had been estranged for over a decade after Wade had allegedly convinced a lawyer to remove Hayden as the executor of their father's will on the basis of his failing mental state – a condition he claimed had been falsified by his brother in order to be named the new executor of the will. Naturally, Wade denied all of the accusations, although, curiously, he did in fact petition the court to forcibly commit his brother to a mental facility and rename himself as the executor. Considering Hayden died only months following his admittance and thus never saw a cent of his father's hefty multimillion dollar inheritance, it really makes one question Wade's character.
Anyway, it seems plausible that Harry Phipps was indeed the culprit. Also, in a side story featured on the same episode, a former attorney for Hayden has been challenging a court order that prevents any future excavation of the sand lot believed to hold the bodies of the Beaumont children. She provided a map and other documents allegedly indicating that the investigators had dug up the wrong plot of land and that the true location of the bodies remains untouched. She even hired a team to use highly sophisticated technology to scan for suspicious objects buried in the ground, and claims that the scan indicates what appears to be three child size figures of some sort in the supposed correct area. Investigators, however, claim she is wrong and so they refuse to search any further. This is absolutely appalling! Sounds like someone is paying them off to protect a dark family secret, Wade!!!!
Experts say it's usually a person the victim(s) know. That's why it's so easy for the perpetrator to mislead the victim.
