My heart just breaks for their children, it’s not easy knowing your father is a dirtbag!

Ummm, well I presumed he’s their father & it’s been a long term marriage - but do we know that for sure ?

I’ve also wondered if perhaps they were separated, maybe since the DV incident in July 2023 and no police reports since because he wasn’t around… ( to give him some rope, perhaps his ‘contacts’ have been since then ) But her parents initially glowed about their relationship. .

What is it about July with them I wonder, perhaps 12 mth separation period up and she told him she was going to file for divorce. If that the case, one would think there’d be some digital evidence for police + you’d think her parents would be aware.

This new info caught my attention in this article.

'There's been extensive forensic testing and that includes pathology testing and, as a result of that, we can't at this stage definitively determine how she's come to be at the bottom of that retaining wall and it remains subject to the investigation.'

'She was located at the bottom of a retaining wall.

'The mower was located at the bottom of the retaining wall, along with Frances, who was deceased at the time she was located when emergency services arrived.'
Anyone with information that can assist with investigations and who had connections with the address or Mrs Frances Crawford or Mr Robert Crawford, as a couple or outside of the marriage, is encouraged to come forward and contact police.'

Kind of odd that they can't tell cause of death.

2 options.
1: Accidently tried to mow too close to retaining wall and went over, you don't want your Husky falling on top of you.
2: Made to look like the above.

Hubby obviously a cheating bastard, but still, if he's not guilty they've publicly shamed him.

Its odd to cut grass at 3am in the morning or did an accident happen earlier and Mr Crawford not discover his wife until then?

 

[BFew]

Hubby obviously a cheating bastard,

If they were separated (including living under the same roof) or had some form of an open marriage arrangement/agreement, would he still be a cheating bastard?

Apologies if there is already 100% evidence of the nature of their relationship at all times.

It baffles me how this much animosity can develop between two people that at one-point promised to love each other forever.

No, I can understand it completely.

Because not everyone marries for love.

This just keeps getting weirder and weirder. I really don’t know know what to think but the police are carefully releasing information that doesn’t make the husband look good which is usually telling.

What’s the alternative, they had an open marriage and Frances was mowing earlier and feel off the retaining wall. Old mate wakes up and realises she isn’t home and goes searching and finds her? In that case the first thing you would do would be to be call her phone to try and find her so phone records would be very telling IMO…….

I think that most people start off with the right intention, but ‘love’ can have a myriad of different meanings for different people.
As time goes on, it becomes apparent in some relationships that other important factors may be missing (often in one partner) - things like genuine commitment, respect, communication etc. They are the things that grow & sustain loving relationships way after the initial ‘lust’ has worn off.

Sadly I don’t think it was an accident. .. and I very much doubt she would’ve been mowing the lawn that day, as I’m pretty sure it was reported early on that she was at work in Toowoomba that day.

The Lockyer Valley property would be at least 1/2 drive from Toowoomba - I think it possible would’ve been dark or on dark when she arrived home.

I do wonder if he turned up unexpectedly (even if they may’ve been separated) and was there when she got home, leading to an argument & her subsequent death...
