Equally it could just have been out of spite, to prevent a perfectly ordinary or decent father having access to his children. Women are just as capable of being controlling as men are.

Which is why I wrote from their point of view.

Isn't that part of the problem, ie the parents believing that nobody else could love or care for their kids as well as they could, so if they, the parents, feel unable to continue doing so then there is (from their point of view) only one logical course of action?

Does Australia have a significant problem with unprocessed rape kits? I know the US has a huge problem with them whereas I don't think they UK have any at all.

From what we now know, long-term abuse seems unlikely. We know that Gus was not ordinarily resident on the station and that his parents have been ruled out by LE as being involved in his disappearance.

Agreed. For one thing, it helps to explain why there were so few outdoor toys in the photos we've seen of the homestead. Secondly, it seems possible that Jess took the kids there for a limited period, say a few days, to help out with some specific jobs on the station - hence the reports of her...

Unfortunately, once someone has been missing for 12 months it's statistically very unlikely that they will be found. There are a few who turn up years, sometimes even decades, later but those are few and far between.

How does this work with the timeline we currently have? If Gus died during the day while Jess and Josie were elsewhere on the station, it means that either: (1) his body was somehow very effectively concealed by Shannon before they returned at the end of the working day, bearing in mind that...

It would be perverting the course of justice, tampering with evidence and (probably) preventing lawful burial here in the UK. I imagine there are equivalent crimes in Australia.
