25. Murder Down Under: Australian Rowan Baxter Commits Quadruple Murder Suicide

Reverie True Crime

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This tragedy happened in Australia. What starts off as domestic violence, ends in multiple deaths.
Rowan, Hannah, and their three children looked like the picture-perfect family on social media. That was far from the truth. Behind the smiles and laughter in the pictures was actually a lot of domestic abuse. Things start getting better for Hannah and her children. 2020 was going to be their year. Unfortunately, Rowan had other plans. It was his way or no way until the very end.
-Warning: This episode contains domestic violence and the death of three children.
