Jennifer & Jack Edwards Had Just Come Home From School

On July 5th, 2018 Jennifer and Jack Edwards were murdered in their home on Hull Street in the Sydney suburb of West Pennant Hills. 

Their mother Olga Edwards returned from work that day to a wall of lights and sirens in front of her home. Police wouldn't let her inside, but she knew almost instantly who was responsible for whatever evil had happened inside her house. She knew there was only one reason police would be at her doorstep. 

“It’s my husband,” she told police. “It’s my husband. We have the final court hearing in two weeks.”
