Killer In The Family

In April 2007 Ciara Dunne and her two children 4 year old Lean and 3 year old Shania were killed by husband and father Adrian Dunne. He then took his own life. Having prepared their wills and visited Funeral Directors in the weeks before the murders, it has been said that Adrian and Ciara planned the murders together before Adrian carried them out. An inquiry into the murders found that the family faced financial challenges as well as Adrian being a controlling force in the family and made recommendations for change.

This is the story of the Dunne Family.

In early September 2018 in a suburb of Perth in Australia, 41 year old Mara Harvey, her three year old daughter Charlotte, 2 year old twins Alice and Beatrix and 73 year old mother were all killed by husband, father and son-in-law 24 year old Anthony Harvey.

Harvey not only planned the murders of his whole family, he also stole money from them after the murders before handing himself into the police. The first person to be given a sentence of life without the possibility of parole, Harvey will be remembered as a cold blooded family annihilator.

This is the story of The Harvey Family.

In June 2017 the bodies of Cheryl Baker, Nadja Medley and her daughter Payton Medley were discovered at a property in Caldwell, Idaho. They had all been shot and killed.

Cheryl’s husband, pilot Gerald Mike Bullinger, who was also Nadja’s boyfriend, was no where to be seen. A prime suspect in the murders of his wife, girlfriend and her daughter, Bullinger had a 10 day headstart on police as they launched an intense search for him. Having found his abandoned car at Pacific Creek Campground in the Bridger‑Teton National Forest in Wyoming, Bullinger has never been found and remains a wanted fugitive to this day. A man whose lies were unravelled and who murdered three women in response.

This is the story of Cheryl Baker and Nadja and Payton Medley.
