As you can see it is a very rural location, this is the road that leads up to the farmhouse. One neighbour told me he rarely saw the residents, only once when a man was putting the two kids into the car

I feel like we just saw a similar case in Ireland...

Here it is -- by no means identical, but another case where a mum attacked her children -- killing three of them in this instance, in the Republic.
