BBC Hannah Baxter: Australian mother and children 'senselessly murdered' 20 Feb 2020

They found the couple's three children - Laianah, 6, Aaliyah, 4, and Trey, 3 - dead inside the car, and their mother burning on the ground beside it. Hannah Baxter, 31, died later in hospital from extensive burns.

 とまあ、6歳・4歳・3歳の子を刺し殺し、妻(31歳)を焼き殺すという、うちの国ではなかなか見ない「大物」事案。可愛い盛りだろう、これ。

Police are yet to confirm reports the father, ex-rugby player Rowan Baxter, set the car alight in Brisbane before stabbing himself to death.

However, they confirmed a history of family violence. Hannah Baxter, 31, and her children were killed on Wednesday.


Tributes have poured in for the victims, with #HannahBaxter a top trend on Twitter in Australia. There has been widespread anger and despair, amid ongoing concern about violence against women.

On average, one woman per week is murdered in Australia by a current or former male partner, according to the Bureau of Statistics.


"Another week, another man annihilates his wife and family. Australia, we need to talk," said Australian poet Rob Scott.

 ちょっとこれ、ほんとに真面目に考えるべきだろう。ちょっとこう、さくさくやりすぎなのと違うか、もしかして。
