Killer In The Family

In September 1971 in South Australia 40 year old Heather Bartholomew, her seven children – Neville, Christine, Sharon, Helen, Gregory Roger and Sandra - her sister Winnis and her 19 month old son Daniel were all killed by Clifford Bartholomew – Heather’s husband and father of six of the eight children he killed.  Known at the time as the deadliest familicide in Australian history – Bartholomew was arrested and sentenced for the murder of his wife. Although given a life sentence he ended up serving less than 8 years. Once out of prison Bartholomew changed his name, married again and was stepfather to children who were similar ages to his children that he killed. His second family had no idea that he had murdered so many people until he and his wife died. A horrific family annihilator who was given a second chance by the justice system. This is the unbelievable story of the Bartholomew Family.   Join me at CrimeCon Birmingham on 25 April.

In February 2010, Susan McFall and her 18 year old daughter Francesca Frankie McFall were killed by husband and father Hugh McFall.  Apparently fearing the loss of his business and social and financial failure, McFall beat his wife and daughter to death before taking his own life. He called 999 before he took his own life and police attended the family home very quickly.  Neighbours and family couldn’t believe that McFall did what he did.  This is the story of the McFall family.   Join me at CrimeCon Birmingham on 25 April.

In February 2010, 24 year old Stephanie Bellinger and her 10 month old daughter Lili were killed by partner and father of Lili, Anthony Marsh. He claimed that voices in his head told him to kill Stephanie and Lili but others asserted that he was trying to avoid his responsibilities and also had revenge as a motive.  Stephanie and Marsh’s other child - two and half year old boy – was physically unharmed in the attack but left alone by Marsh for over 24 hours.  Despite denying murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility, Marsh was found guilty of the murder of Stephanie and Lili and was sentenced to life imprisonment.  This is the story of Stephanie Bellinger and her daughter Lili.  Join me at CrimeCon Birmingham on 25 April.

In November 2019, 28 year old Jennifer Rothwell was killed by husband Beau Rothwell – she was six weeks pregnant with his baby.  Having googled "What to do if your husband is upset you are pregnant” before she was killed Jennifer wasn’t sure if Rothwell wanted their baby.  Although he claimed he didn’t plan the murder, Rothwell was clearly an escapee family annihilator who planned to kill his wife and unborn child to continue a life with another woman.

In September 2012, 46 year old Kim Buckley, her 17 year old daughter Kayleigh Buckley and 6 month old granddaughter Kimberley Buckley all died in a house fire in Cwmbran, in Wales. The fire had been deliberately started by Kayleigh’s controlling and abusive boyfriend – and father of Kimberley - Carl Mills who was later jailed for over 30 years for their murders. Mills groomed Kayleigh when she was just 15 years old and three statutory reports identified multiple failings in the police and social services response to the danger Mills posed. A heartbreaking story of the murder of three generations of a family and the failure of services to protect them.  This is the story of Kim, Kayleigh and Kimberley Buckley.  Information and support  Samaritans UK Contact Us | Samaritans  Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse (AAFDA) Home - AAFDA Women’s Aid Home - Women's Aid National Domestic Abuse Helpline UK 0808 2000 247 Mental health support USA Mental Health America | Homepage | Mental Health America Domestic abuse helpline USA 1.800.799.SAFE Domestic Violence Support | National Domestic Violence Hotline    References  Family Annihilation - Hansard - UK Parliament CWMBRAN BLAZE: Family pays tribute to Kim, Kayleigh and Kimberley Buckley | South Wales Argus Killer of three generations of the same family was involved in 45 incidents of violence against his own mother - Wales Online String of tragedies for fire death family - BBC News Serious case review into fire deaths - ITV News Police Professional | Gwent response to fire murders criticisedGwent Police failed Carl Mills murder victims - reports - BBC News Cwmbran fire death family 'likely' to have been saved if killer's history had been properly researched | ITV News Wales Risk to Cwmbran fire death family was not properly understood - ITV News Serious case review criticises social services over Cwmbran Cwmbran fire deaths: Carl Mills jailed at least 30 years for triple murder | Crime | The Guardian Credits  Hosted and created by Clare Laxton @ladylaxton Produced by Clare Laxton Part of W!ZARD Studios @wizradio Music from Tyee Brunt-Clifford Home | TBC.COMPOSER If you’re enjoying the podcast and would like to support its running, please consider buying me a coffee buymeacoffee.com/clarelaxton   See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
