I don't think her and Mathew were actually married. Crossman was her married name from her marriage to Col Crossman who is reported to be the first paramedic on the scene. She also goes by Natasha Darcy-Crossman. I believe her maiden same was Ziesel.

She has an interesting criminal history too, not that you could tell from her online persona. I hope justice plays out.

It sounds like there might have been a tragic ending to poor Jillian's story. One of her daughters has posted on Facebook saying 'Rest peacefully our beautiful, loving, funny Mumma bear. We love you and miss you so much.' My heart breaks for this poor family. I hope they find the strength to...

I feel like I need to write something just to show that Jillian is in the thoughts and hearts of so many people and her family are still beside themselves. Her children didn't have her for Mother's Day yesterday and she has been gone one month. I hope they get closure soon.

This is just so awful. I can't imagine how the family are coping with the shock and the not knowing. I live in a similar rural community nearby. Thank goodness the community will be being an amazing support for them. My thoughts are with them all the time. I hope this much loved mother can...

So terribly sad. May you rest in peace Karen and may there be swift justice.

I know one shouldn't judge without all the facts but I automatically thought he was guilty. The arrogance and lack of distress over what happened is very telling.

This case is just horrific and heartbreaking. It makes me feel physically ill. How flawed are our systems and laws to allow this sort of (alleged) abuse to continue? It's frightening that predators such as these can have access to the most vulnerable and precious members of our society. Even if...

This case is so strange. I'm guessing if this all happened, that they were effected by more than alcohol. I recall seeing police images of what looked like drugs in seal bags. Can't remember where I saw these images, sorry!

The Daily Mail story that refers to him being found in a cavity in the side of a hill alongside the house is very strange. It would be awful if he'd has some kind of accident and was not found at the time. Poor poor family.

What a tragic end to an epic search across Australia and the world. And he was under their house the whole time? How crazy : (

I Thank you!

Oh I am so pleased to hear that telling my story has inspired you to talk to others. I also agree that awareness and speaking out as early as possible is key to recovery. All the professionals have said that because my godson spoke up when he was still young, 12, and because no one ever doubted...

Thank you. So kind.

Do you think it's possible that the victims were his own daughters, from his previous marriage? Perhaps he had weekend or holiday access and was living in the caravan after the marriage breakdown. When the mother and grandmother said that the three year old had said that Bill had done it, maybe...

Thanks Makara. I greatly respect your opinions. I feel so passionate about this issue. When I have healed and regained my strength I feel I need to use my personal experience and gained knowledge (as awful as it is) to raise awareness. Nobody wants to talk about child abuse but that's not going...

I really hope so. I had such a strong feeling about him from the outset. Those poor boys.

To me, what has been unfolding has been frightening but not surprising. Unfortunately now I look at so many people with suspicion after a hideous case of child abuse unfolded recently in my family. My cousin who was also my best friend had been abusing one of my godsons for 6 years(!), at times...

You are lucky to have never experienced one of these shark eyed people. Nightmarish to say the very least!

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but there's something I found interesting in the one of the very first descriptions of VS. I think it was a neighbour who mentioned that he had very dark, almost black eyes. This is a very common trait in sociopaths and psychopaths. Often their eyes can...
