Have indeed! Saw the official record of interview video the night Garforth was arrested! Chilling was putting it mildly ~ never forgotten to this day 🤬
@TheTrueCrimeChannel exactly!!! I will assume all those bullying the mother, aren't parents. As a mom I feel for her and she has my heart. I can't even imagine.
Unfortunately there are unkind and demonic heartless people who have nothing better to do than come on social media and spew their nonsense for some much needed attention that their own Mummy or Daddy didn't give them, we should pity them and not give them the attention that they crave ❤
There is no way mum is in any way to blame. Only One person is to blame and that’s the evil bast@#d that took her. Every mother has times things clash, it was a safe area, the older son was aware. Those criticising the mother are just sick and twisted
I agree with Ebonys mum. Forgiveness is not easy or necessary in my opinion. When your child is murdered you lose a piece of yourself. You know you have to keep going but the hurt doesn't go away.
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel you are right, my youngest, my daughter passed away at 22 completely unexpected. But I have to admit I am “thankful” if that’s the right word that she is not a missing person nor was murdered. I can’t even imagine. These poor children.
I respect your commit but I just do not agree with it , as a person with a murdered family member I can honestly say I was of the same opinion , but I could never move on, It consumed me and ruined many relation ships, you just waste to much negative energy being pissed off all the time, people who forgive are not really forgiving the act for the murderer,they forgive them for them selves, because that weight is to heavy to carry and will eventually break every bone In your body.Forgive but never forget is not just a saying, but I will leave that to Individuals choice. Peace.
Hazel. Agree absolutely not her poor mother's fault. You'd have to blame my and all my friend's mothers too because we wandered further than that girl at the same age. Wonderful thing her mother did with the support group❤
Or even play in their own back yard or shallow pool in the yard without being snatched away by some nutter and never seen again. Has happened in the USA. Again it's not the parents fault. Sociopaths blame everyone else for their own bad behaviour. An unlocked car or house? It's their fault not mine that I broke in. An unattended child. It's their fault not mine. An unattended phone or wallet on a bar bench or table? Their fault again for being careless. They have no empathy, remorse, ethics or guilt whatsoever. Longer prison sentences might help. I really don't know how to fix someone like that who is broken.
As bad as the justice system is here in Australia, America isn't really that much better either. I've seen many people get away with the most hideous stuff in America, not to mention it's still legal in many places in America for 9 year old kids to marry.
Hmm, is that so we can have the kind of crime, death, etc you have there? So we can go through something like Uvalde? Er, no thanks. In case you haven’t noticed, your justice system DOES’NT WORK!!!
I lost a son and it was an accident. I can’t even come close to understanding the pain of parents who lose their precious children to the evil that lives in our world. To hell with these monsters!!!!
People saying who lets a 9 year old walk home. 1. It was from the bus stop, not school. 2. In the 90s it was completely normal to walk to school alone anyway. Everyone did it. Those days people were innocent, it was even normal to leave your door unlocked and to let the kids play outside with other kids as long as they were back home by sundown and dinner. Those times were very different and innocent. 3. Blame the guy, not the poor Mother. Ebony had just got off the bus and didn’t have far to walk to home… and kids SHOULD be able to do that without the worry of being unalived. M This story breaks my heart.
Yes I think in both the Australian and New Zealand culture, it was very normal for kids to walk, bus or bike to school. I did through all my years at school. Mind you it was 70’s & 80’s. Even being dropped off at the beach and left with siblings for a few hours was quite normal
Yes, we used to walk to & from school & nothing was heard of then - We also slept with windows wide open, no screens, when it was hot. Even left the front & back door ajar at night if it was super hot. Life has changed so much. For the worse.😢
those times weren't innocent only ignorant. Do a search, how many children you find just on yt just like Ebony? The fact that you survived doesn't mean it was any different. it only means you got damn lucky. The ones who weren't can't come to yt to tell you just how wrong you are.
@@TheTrueCrimeChannelI personally think more needs to be done to address the issue of SA. In alot of the cases I'm hearing it seems the actual punishment for these crimes are just too lenient and doesn't take into account the knock on effect this has on the victim and in some cases these victims even become the perpetrator later in life sadly. The root of the problem needs to be addressed i.e. identifying individuals with these sick urges and working towards either ongoing change whilst monitoring them or keeping them behind bars. It's such a common problem, it's scary.
Demonic ,,,and to play mentally insaine card is not right ,,,they know what they do and pre meditate most of the time,i pray for all the childrens family that peace and forgiveness they can find and may the Holy Lord Jesus have these innocent little ones in his arms safe away from any harm.😢❣️🙏
I survived a triple murder. I was just 9yrs old. My Aunt, who sadly lost her life, saved mine by putting me in a cupboard. My two cousins lost their lives the same way as my Aunt. The justice system really shouldn’t be all that! The man who took my Aunt & two cousins lives was sentenced to just 15yrs, he served half that got out on “good behaviour.” My family chose to forgive him, I didn’t .. no way. He went on to murder an innocent 12yr old boy. If the system had worked then each of family members lives would have mattered, so life for each of them. That poor would never have been murdered. Ebony’s mum is correct, nobody truly understands unless you’ve been affected by it. The pain stains your soul, your life forever. I’m forever changed by what I witnessed. I pray for a better system.
My heart goes out to Ebony's mum...i lost my son at age 6 because of leukaemia, even though its been almost 40yrs the pain in your heart never goes....just imagine if i lost him through the hands of another, how do you get past that??? How wonderful of her to start this organisation to help others that unfortunately have & sadly will continue to go this absolute horror, i pray that all these victims will find some sort of peace, love & prayers going your way❤❤❤
I remember when little Ebony disappeared and how upsetting and horrific her disappearance and murder was. Children should be able to experience life unharmed and untouched.
I read the book about Ebony that the parents wrote. The detective tried so hard to help them and to get him maximum sentence time but his hands were tied and he was so frustrated he couldn’t help them like they needed. That’s why he gave them the number of Anita Cobbys family…it was all he could do. The parents were instrumental in setting up the victims of crime support group that still operates today.
I walked to school and back on my own from age 7, then I would ride my bike all over until it hot dark. That was in 90ties. Now i have 10 year old daughter and she never goes anywhere alone, ever.
Yup, a little older than this girl my walk was 45 mins each way. Even then "stranger danger" was a big thing, they taught is safety, even then we were allowed to the park and the local river without adults.
I was five in 1983 and I walked to and from school with my sister who was two years older here in New Zealand. Later on we biked separately. There was no thought that it was dangerous.
@deathbycheese850 no she wasn't, you can read the psychologist report online. It's a joke and the fact people eat up what the media tell them is half the problem. Martin Bryant IS seriously mentally ill so by your reasoning we should let him free! I can't believe how narrow minded you actually are!
I drove over the Westgate in the opposite direction not long after it happened, then after I found out what was going on (the police were already there and had him in the back of the divvy van by the time I was going over it), I started avoiding it as much as possible.
These creatures are always ready. They leave home ready, and as soon as an opportunity presents itself, they pounce. There was nothing little Ebony could have done. She's tiny, he wouldn't have to work hard to get her into his filthy car.
No man who could do that to his own daughter should be called a father. Why single out one child? Was it because she looked like her Mum? Hes a narcissistic psychopath and probably a misogynist all in one. He knew exactly what he was doing. RIP little Darcy.
His plan was to do the same to all three of the children, from what the reports stated at the time. I drove over the Westgate not long after it happened, but at least I wasn’t one of the poor people who witnessed it happening. People heading into work that day would’ve been traumatised since he did it in the middle of peak hour.
His plan was to do it to them all..but Darcy was just who he grabbed first. After her brother who was older saw what he did to Darcy he started resisting his Dad and fighting him and asking him what he did to Darcy and the Dad lost his nerve and drove away. Also people driving past had seen what happenned and were starting to stop their cars behind him to try and help her
Watching ebonys mum still cry after more then twenty years reminds me that no one should tell a parent to move on especially when they know that an innocent child is murdered not long ago my sister lost her beautiful daughter and two very small children lost thier mum what my sister is going through is horrific she tells everyone how she can’t even think of moving on and sadly right so
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel nor will she meet the grandchildren she might of had. When a child is murdered the killer also murders the generations that were yet to come.
I remember exactly where I was when it came on the news that Darcy had been thrown over the west gate bridge. I had only just driven across it about two hours prior. I froze. For anyone who doesn’t know, it’s a very high bridge. It’s windy and scary to drive across on windy days. I still can’t believe she actually survived the impact with the water. It would have been like hitting concrete. I can still remember that day. It was a very dark day in Melbourne that day. And for some days following it. The police woman who was first on the scene broke down as she tried to work on little Darcy. It’s was utterly heartbreaking. Especially when an inquest later found that at least two doctors know Freeman was violent, unpredictable and abusive towards his children but they didn’t report it because they thought the courts and police were taking care of that side of things. Devastating. Her mum, Peta, was so dignified and strong. RIP Darcy and all the other child victims. What an awful cruel world we live in sometimes. 😢
I’m from England I’ve never heard about Ebony she would be 40 by now….. which is the same age as me. I will never truly understand the Evil humans are capable of. Truly devastating I’ve not seen the comments blaming the mother but yes back then more children walked home and any child should be safe where ever they are in the world .The parents are also victims of this horrific crime leave them alone!!
Trust me it was and still is a very remote road in Bargo. Don't forget in 2010 Mathew Milat from the town of Bargo murdered his friend in the Belanglo State Forrest just like his great uncle Ivan Milat who murdered 7 young backpackers in the same place. Creepy town
I’m so heartbroken about Ebony! This is exactly why I feel bus stops should be directly in front of homes! What’s heartbreaking about Ebony, is the fact he just took her, tied her up and threw her into water! To sexually abuse that little girl, when he had children himself! What a fuggin monster! Mama *YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BE ANGRY, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FORGIVE* you gave Ebony more justice than just sending him to prison by making changes! Hugs Mama! It’s amazing how quick Australian police acted, in America they’d say wait 24hrs! When everyone know the first 24hrs with a missing child is crucial!
The investigators that jumped into immediate action, searching for Ebony, are true heroes!! They were determined to get answers and to help!! My heart breaks for these families!!
Mental illness covers a huge span. Very little of it keeps you from making correct decisions. Right and wrong is understandable by almost everyone. If one commits murder, mental illness should not keep you out of incarceration. Period!
@@cynthiat6505... You very obviously do not know NEARLY as much as you think you do about mental illness. Just share your opinion that it shouldn't keep people from incarceration and move on. Your opinions on mental illness are absolutely ignorant.
They were able to manipulate the justice system to cater to Percy’s mental “illness” while not offering 10 year old Shane Spiller the same considerations.
Listening to what that disgusting monster did to Ebony just beyond sick. As a parent myself, I can't even begin to understand the pain and torment of having your child murdered in the most brutal way.
Brave family, the nightmare of loosing their lovely daughter in this way is beyond comprehension to anyone. Sadly, to much of this is going on and other families will suffer because of the monsters out there. Those monsters should be locked up for good.
This is so sad. I watched a movie about this. I wished I could remember the name of it. If anyone has seen it to can you let me no please thanks. My heart goes out to her family. May this sweet child rest in peace 🕊️❤
I'm not an Australian but half of my family are and the rest of us are in New Zealand. I've watched many true crime videos as I believe it's the least I can do for all victims. I feel terrible that I have never heard of young Ebony. I am 46 so I'm in her generation. When the bastard was saying what he did and hearihg her mothers pain had tears falling down my cheeks. Her parents and other members of their centre have accomplished so much and have helped countless people. I can imagine that Ebony was looking down on her parents trying to almost give them the support they desperately needed. The mothers brutal words are so needed because although I could forgive a lot I would never forgive someone who harmed my loved ones. I'm so sorry Ebony that you suffered before you died RIP little one.
The coldest thing was that I was being raised in Australia, Western Australia while this was going on, but I can’t remember when they said that he was locked up for life, I was there from 1970 to 1979, no wonder my mother was very watchful of us as we grew up!
This two hours video is very long but i finished it. Ebony's case made me cry. Darcy case i was shocked and horrified will never forget till the rest of my life
The judge handed down a life sentence but 23 years later Garforth's classification has been downgraded from an A-grade maximum security prisoner to a B-grade, meaning he can apply for prison jobs and even enroll in a list of courses at the jail. Is this just and fair! If this was my child I'd take justice into my own hands
Yes we do, we will never forget those children lost, murdered by these monster cowedly men. On the odd occasion I’ve travelled over the Westgate Bridge, I think of dear little Darcy and her brothers, so sad for her mother waiting for her to arrive at school. He wasn’t crazy, he is evil and it was an act of revenge.
Evil demonic humans…with black souls destroying one family foundation after another…times are getting more and more chaotic…be careful out there everyone… Poor innocent little girl…I’m so sorry for your loss 🙏🏻
The 90s and years before were so different. I walked home from the bus and was basically unsupervised my whole life. I graduated HS in 1995. These days, I have kept my kids as close as possible- it’s a different time…
Arthur Freeman was an arrogant and spiteful pos. Like has happened with many other parents going through a difficult divorce or separation, they choose to hurt their spouse in the worst way possible. That proves to me that they don't love their children. Not one bit. He murdered his precious little girl and he also traumatized his 2 boys for life. RIP Darcy 😢
Couldn't imagine the fear and pain that little girl was feeling when someone she completely trusted could do something horrific as to what happened to Darcy, I refuse to go anywhere near that bridge my family feel the same way.
To Ebony's mum . No you don't ever have to forgive . I wouldn't either . I'm sorry for what you and your family went through and still are going through . May you find some peace knowing what a wonderful mum you were and that these dreadful monsters are out there . Love to your sons and husband . I would absolutely love the death penalty as there's no rehabilitation for monsters . He not a man but a monster. May you go on with rest of your life and. Cherish the good memories you had with Ebbony 😢
A Prison Officer had been asked in an interview about Garforth's behaviour, the Officer stated that on being instructed to vacate his Cell for Yard time, Garforth had complained that he "couldn't be bothered, that he has a shitty existence"... the Officer said he was livid at hearing this and ordered Garforth to stand up and leave the Cell saying : "after what you've done, you don't get to tell us what you can and can't be bothered doing when that little Girl has no existence at all anymore..", Garforth had sniggered at the Officers comment, upon which the Officer had thrown Garforth at the Cell wall and marched him out to the Prison Yard....
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel It is an excerpt from a Book on Australian crime, I think it was James Phelps, he wrote a number of Books on Australian Maximum Security Prisons. Long Bay, Goulburn, Pentridge.
No one should be told how to feel. I lost my daughter 11 years ago and the pain is still as raw and I'm still angry.. she correct, that man does not belong among us, he is a danger and these men do Not change or get better... Hugs
Same. I was driving over the Westgate not long after it happened. They had two lanes on that side closed (I was travelling in the opposite direction after Mrs Bushy #2’s heart specialist appointment), and he was already in the back of the divvy van at that stage (this was at about 10:30-11am) and a tow truck was just getting there to tow his car away. Didn’t know what happened until we got back to Melton and switched on the midday news.
Yk what angers me.. the way they try to say oh he had a rough childhood or blame something in his past for his action's, at the end of the day it was his choice to end a little kids life and if he was insane how on earth was he a enlisted serviceman? I bet he claimed insane to avoid the death penalty.
Innocence of all these young children meet pure evil. Personally would not be able to forgive. At least some good has come out of these pointless deaths. May you always remain Angels
I could barely get thru the Ebony Simpson case. I just cried my eyes out. One thing her mum said that rings true. You do not have to forgive to move on RIP Ebony. Much love to your beautiful family
I will never forget the murder of Ebony Simpson. We lived in the town of Bargo . Arena Road was so remote and this little girl should not have been left to go and come from school on her own. R.I.P beautiful little angel 😢❤
Who are these people to tell Ebony's mother that she shouldn't be angry at the man who took her daughter's life?!, she should be angry!, if l was in her shoes, l too, couldn't forgive that disgusting piece of trash. I hope that in time Ebony's mother will find some peace. 🙁😡
I knew Linda Stilwell in 1967 at Avondale Primary School. At the time of her abduction she had moved schools. I still think of her and her case, and of her family. It was felt amongst some local families that she was taken out of the country via New Zealand as no passports were required between Australia and New Zealand at that time. Hearing that police had checked boats on the area was interesting. I have always wondered whether the Dunedin lady once rumoured to be Jane Boumont could in fact be Linda Stilwell. She did look like her so I questioned it with Dunedin police and Russell Street at the time but was dismissed in both instances. I’m still not satisfied with that.
He threw his daughter over the bridge because he didn't want his ex-wife to have the children. On top of this, he was going to throw the middle child over as well, then the oldest son. He knew what he was doing. The poor little girl tried to fight her dad
I am glad after all that indecision he was found guilty, otherwise the mother's emotions would remain one of anger. After the guilty verdict she was able to grieve her daughter with the emotions associated with grief and loss. He knew what he was doing. He did it to spite her mother. What a monster!
we need australia to start having a register for these predators so we know as parents where they live in our area to protect our children its disgusting that they are protected government needs to stand up and look at this
Horrific in every way! I'm always baffled how/why criminals of this nature get a light sentence , only to be released to do it again! I pray prisoners in Australia are similar to American Prisoners, who do what the Judicial System fails to do; REAL Justice!!
Crazy to think a child walking home is so controversial and the parents are more demonized than the actual killers. Like from age 7 I walked home from school which was about 30min and spent two hours home alone, I also woke up to an empty house and was alone for an hour before walking to school. This wasn't the 90s it was mid 2000s and I couldn't imagine having to be walked to school by someone. Even now it seems strange, my mother could not afford care and why would she? I could always take care of myself like I said I woke myself up, got ready and was never once late to school even during thunder and snowstorms. It's so sad children today are so leashed and sheltered because of cases like these. The impact from these killers so heavily impacts he world today that I knew of parents who got the police called on them for letting their 10 year old walk the dog by themself ( also crazy because I had a dog at 12 and not only walked it at 6am by myself but also took it to puppy school by myself). It's impossible to shelter your kids from such creeps, and it's hard to find he balance between children having freedom and safety. But, even if it was today and a parent let their kid walk home from school and something horrible happened to the kid I wouldnt blame the parents but the person who actually hurt the kid. Also people dont always have a choice like my mom didnt have anyone who could walk me even if she wanted to. Edit: Not super relevant but just to clarify. The parents would have some fault if it was like a 4 year old or a child that didnt have maturity to be able to walk home safely. Like if the kid ran out in front of car or jumped into a river and died that would be more toward the parents blame because they should know their kid wasnt ready to be independent. But, we are more talking about something out of the child's control of some creep snatching them which has little to do with how mature or independent the child is. Like even teenagers can be kidnapped by creeps. Like for me I was extremely mature I had been adultified very young but I know many of peers wouldnt be able to manage that or even walk 5 min from home without getting in trouble. All I'm saying is in situations like this blame the monster who hurt the kid and not the parent because the controversy about letting a kid walk home alone doesnt have a right answer. Your kid can be snatched from their bed, if a creep wants your kid they'll get them it's sad but it is true. Even with how hard it is nowadays, a few years ago a car pulled up beside a mother and daughter walking and snatched the daughter by force, ripping her from her mom and shoving her into the car, the kid was like 8 aswell. Should we blame the mom for not having the police escort her on a walk?
I will never forget this day, she looked just like my daughter it upset me warching her play with her brithers, then throw her over in front of them, I do hope they are okay i think of her often and the boys. Xx
These cases are so very sad. I have heard of Ebony's case and watched a documentary about Derek Percy. Darcy Freeman 's story I haven't heard about before. These awful diabolical men have far too many privileges when the victims families live with the pain of what happened to their child, forever.
Forgiveness does not mean setting the guilty person free of their crimes. It means setting yourself free from bitterness because once bitterness takes hold of you it’s not healthy. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be angry about what happened but having bitterness means you are forever thinking about thst criminal who took thst precious life. If you forgive him you are no longer chained to him. You can move on taking those precious memories with you
Have you heard of these cases before?
yes and many more cases
Only the last case not
Yes, saw them on tv in the uk
Never

Simply an awful reality that we live in
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel worst fact I am from 🇦🇺
I am scared :(
not a couple hundred yards. 1 kilometer, thats a long way for a small child!!!!
yes it is and thats Democrat America
Or even play in their own back yard or shallow pool in the yard without being snatched away by some nutter and never seen again. Has happened in the USA. Again it's not the parents fault. Sociopaths blame everyone else for their own bad behaviour. An unlocked car or house? It's their fault not mine that I broke in. An unattended child. It's their fault not mine. An unattended phone or wallet on a bar bench or table? Their fault again for being careless. They have no empathy, remorse, ethics or guilt whatsoever. Longer prison sentences might help. I really don't know how to fix someone like that who is broken.
This is the exact reason the death penalty is justified 😢
How do you think society would react if this punishment was brought back across the world?
I totally agree !
Me too!
@TheTrueCrimeChannel would society feel justice is dealt? Cases like these 8/14/40years is barely justice.
Unfortunately there are too many who have been executed, and were later found innocent.

I am walking alone both ways since like 2nd grade. Ended 8th grade two weeks ago.

Ebony’s mum is correct, nobody truly understands unless you’ve been affected by it. The pain stains your soul, your life forever. I’m forever changed by what I witnessed. I pray for a better system.
Oh my goodness - thank you for sharing your story. We are so sorry for your loss - have you been able to live a healthy and happy life?
So sorry that happened to you
The court system is horrible here in the USA murders getting either away with it or being let out on “good behavior” good behavior my ass
🎉I'm sorry you had to go through that🎉
You are 100 % right. It changes you forever.
My deepest condolences for what you went through.
God bless you and prayers for the ones you lost. 😢😢😢
My heart goes out to Ebony's mum...i lost my son at age 6 because of leukaemia, even though its been almost 40yrs the pain in your heart never goes....just imagine if i lost him through the hands of another, how do you get past that???
How wonderful of her to start this organisation to help others that unfortunately have & sadly will continue to go this absolute horror, i pray that all these victims will find some sort of peace, love & prayers going your way❤❤❤
Sorry to hear this ❤️
I remember this, it was huge here in Australia when Ebony went missing, and then what unfolded was just an unbelievable nightmare.
The whole nation stopped in its tracks
I remember when little Ebony disappeared and how upsetting and horrific her disappearance and murder was. Children should be able to experience life unharmed and untouched.
Do you think it changed Australia?
I read the book about Ebony that the parents wrote. The detective tried so hard to help them and to get him maximum sentence time but his hands were tied and he was so frustrated he couldn’t help them like they needed. That’s why he gave them the number of Anita Cobbys family…it was all he could do. The parents were instrumental in setting up the victims of crime support group that still operates today.
At least there is that silver lining to this tragedy ❤
Just about every kid I knew including myself walked home from the bus in the 1990s.
Would you let kids do it today?
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel no I don’t think so, I’d want to at least meet them at the stop.
I walked to school and back on my own from age 7, then I would ride my bike all over until it hot dark. That was in 90ties. Now i have 10 year old daughter and she never goes anywhere alone, ever.
Yup, a little older than this girl my walk was 45 mins each way. Even then "stranger danger" was a big thing, they taught is safety, even then we were allowed to the park and the local river without adults.
I was five in 1983 and I walked to and from school with my sister who was two years older here in New Zealand. Later on we biked separately. There was no thought that it was dangerous.
A psychopath is able to feign mental illness (or whatever it takes to avoid accountability)
Do you think judges need to change how they look at mental illnesses in murder cases?
Yes look at the women in Cairns that killed 8 kids and had the chargers dropped @TheTrueCrimeChannel
Psychopathy is a personality disorder, therefore a mental illness itself.
@@bearcatracing007that lady was serious.y ill, and I can't believe how narrow minded some people still are about it.
@deathbycheese850 no she wasn't, you can read the psychologist report online. It's a joke and the fact people eat up what the media tell them is half the problem. Martin Bryant IS seriously mentally ill so by your reasoning we should let him free! I can't believe how narrow minded you actually are!
I had 3 young children at the time of darcys death. My daughter was the same age as darcy. Im also in Melbourne and this made me sick, it still does.
Did it change you as a parent?
I rarely go over the westgate bridge but when i do i think of darcy everytime. They added higher fencing after this happened
So sad
This brings tears to my eyes because of what happened to Darcey and I've lost family members on the same bridge
I drove over the Westgate in the opposite direction not long after it happened, then after I found out what was going on (the police were already there and had him in the back of the divvy van by the time I was going over it), I started avoiding it as much as possible.
I know the guy who got Darcy out. He was one of the first officer on the scene.
He resigned not long after this
I have never forgotten that day. Clear as a bell in my mind. 🙏🏻 dear little girl😔
These creatures are always ready. They leave home ready, and as soon as an opportunity presents itself, they pounce. There was nothing little Ebony could have done. She's tiny, he wouldn't have to work hard to get her into his filthy car.
That's terrifying to think about
No man who could do that to his own daughter should be called a father. Why single out one child? Was it because she looked like her Mum? Hes a narcissistic psychopath and probably a misogynist all in one. He knew exactly what he was doing. RIP little Darcy.
Such a horrific crime
His plan was to do the same to all three of the children, from what the reports stated at the time. I drove over the Westgate not long after it happened, but at least I wasn’t one of the poor people who witnessed it happening. People heading into work that day would’ve been traumatised since he did it in the middle of peak hour.
His plan was to do it to them all..but Darcy was just who he grabbed first. After her brother who was older saw what he did to Darcy he started resisting his Dad and fighting him and asking him what he did to Darcy and the Dad lost his nerve and drove away. Also people driving past had seen what happenned and were starting to stop their cars behind him to try and help her
@@ayrproductions rubbish. he was just a pig who had to get rid of the girl, thinking it would hurt the mother more
What an amazing woman! Thank you for helping others❤️
❤
I feel for Ebony’s mother. So tragic. I’d be angry too. I don’t believe I would or could forgive anyone that did what that monster did
That would absolutely be hard to forgive
Watching ebonys mum still cry after more then twenty years reminds me that no one should tell a parent to move on especially when they know that an innocent child is murdered not long ago my sister lost her beautiful daughter and two very small children lost thier mum what my sister is going through is horrific she tells everyone how she can’t even think of moving on and sadly right so
It is horrifying - she never got to see her daughter grow up
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel nor will she meet the grandchildren she might of had. When a child is murdered the killer also murders the generations that were yet to come.
There is nothing in this world than a mother who loses her child, especially at the hands of another, part of you goes with them forever!
I remember exactly where I was when it came on the news that Darcy had been thrown over the west gate bridge. I had only just driven across it about two hours prior. I froze. For anyone who doesn’t know, it’s a very high bridge. It’s windy and scary to drive across on windy days. I still can’t believe she actually survived the impact with the water. It would have been like hitting concrete. I can still remember that day. It was a very dark day in Melbourne that day. And for some days following it. The police woman who was first on the scene broke down as she tried to work on little Darcy. It’s was utterly heartbreaking. Especially when an inquest later found that at least two doctors know Freeman was violent, unpredictable and abusive towards his children but they didn’t report it because they thought the courts and police were taking care of that side of things. Devastating. Her mum, Peta, was so dignified and strong. RIP Darcy and all the other child victims. What an awful cruel world we live in sometimes. 😢
Absolutely horrific
Rest in love Miss Ebony remembering you always darling xx❤️
Such a sad day for her family
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel was living in Sydney when it happened so very sad 🙁
Did it change how people were with their children?
I’m from England I’ve never heard about Ebony she would be 40 by now….. which is the same age as me. I will never truly understand the Evil humans are capable of. Truly devastating I’ve not seen the comments blaming the mother but yes back then more children walked home and any child should be safe where ever they are in the world .The parents are also victims of this horrific crime leave them alone!!
Crazy to think that the case is known around the world - thanks for watching
Trust me it was and still is a very remote road in Bargo. Don't forget in 2010 Mathew Milat from the town of Bargo murdered his friend in the Belanglo State Forrest just like his great uncle Ivan Milat who murdered 7 young backpackers in the same place. Creepy town
I’m so heartbroken about Ebony! This is exactly why I feel bus stops should be directly in front of homes!
What’s heartbreaking about Ebony, is the fact he just took her, tied her up and threw her into water! To sexually abuse that little girl, when he had children himself! What a fuggin monster!
Mama *YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BE ANGRY, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FORGIVE* you gave Ebony more justice than just sending him to prison by making changes! Hugs Mama!
It’s amazing how quick Australian police acted, in America they’d say wait 24hrs!
When everyone know the first 24hrs with a missing child is crucial!
The investigators that jumped into immediate action, searching for Ebony, are true heroes!! They were determined to get answers and to help!! My heart breaks for these families!!
They did a fantastic job despite the tragedy of the case
Percy... too insane to be convicted... smart enough to invest his navy pension in stocks and collectibles
Interesting point!
Umm...so insane people can't be intelligent?
Mental illness covers a huge span. Very little of it keeps you from making correct decisions. Right and wrong is understandable by almost everyone. If one commits murder, mental illness should not keep you out of incarceration. Period!
@@cynthiat6505... You very obviously do not know NEARLY as much as you think you do about mental illness. Just share your opinion that it shouldn't keep people from incarceration and move on. Your opinions on mental illness are absolutely ignorant.
They were able to manipulate the justice system to cater to Percy’s mental “illness” while not offering 10 year old Shane Spiller the same considerations.
Listening to what that disgusting monster did to Ebony just beyond sick. As a parent myself, I can't even begin to understand the pain and torment of having your child murdered in the most brutal way.
It has to be one of the worst thoughts in the world - let alone to experience the real thing
Those poor brothers. And the little boy on the beach. Imagine living with those memories.
It is heartbreaking
Darcy Freeman was such a beautiful little girl... I don't understand how a father could do that 😢
So heartbreaking
Brave family, the nightmare of loosing their lovely daughter in this way is beyond comprehension to anyone. Sadly, to much of this is going on and other families will suffer because of the monsters out there. Those monsters should be locked up for good.
It is honestly horrific - we couldn't begin to imagine how their families feel
What a very lovely mother! She is a tribute to all of us! And one more thing that precious, beautiful girl…
❤
This is so sad. I watched a movie about this. I wished I could remember the name of it. If anyone has seen it to can you let me no please thanks. My heart goes out to her family. May this sweet child rest in peace 🕊️❤
So horrific.
I would love to see it, if anyone knows the name , please
I'm not an Australian but half of my family are and the rest of us are in New Zealand. I've watched many true crime videos as I believe it's the least I can do for all victims. I feel terrible that I have never heard of young Ebony. I am 46 so I'm in her generation. When the bastard was saying what he did and hearihg her mothers pain had tears falling down my cheeks. Her parents and other members of their centre have accomplished so much and have helped countless people. I can imagine that Ebony was looking down on her parents trying to almost give them the support they desperately needed. The mothers brutal words are so needed because although I could forgive a lot I would never forgive someone who harmed my loved ones. I'm so sorry Ebony that you suffered before you died RIP little one.
Thank you so much for watching ❤
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel you're welcome. Your content is amazing and very professional.
"keep him where he is, it's the safest place for him. Trust me." 😂😂
Ebonys mother's story is heartbreaking but she is pretty bad ass
She's a saint ❤
The coldest thing was that I was being raised in Australia, Western Australia while this was going on, but I can’t remember when they said that he was locked up for life, I was there from 1970 to 1979, no wonder my mother was very watchful of us as we grew up!
Do you think it changed the way you grew up?
This two hours video is very long but i finished it. Ebony's case made me cry. Darcy case i was shocked and horrified will never forget till the rest of my life
Thank you for watching!
Australia sentencing is preposterous
How should it be improved?
Tried to tell what happened to my family but RUclips is censoring me...
Sorry to hear that - if you have an abridged version we would be interested to hear it (and we hope that you are ok)
The judge handed down a life sentence but 23 years later Garforth's classification has been downgraded from an A-grade maximum security prisoner to a B-grade, meaning he can apply for prison jobs and even enroll in a list of courses at the jail. Is this just and fair! If this was my child I'd take justice into my own hands
Do you think prisoners should not get a chance to show they have reformed if they commit a crime like this?
Dont worry..
He,ll be more safe inside,than outside...
And he knows it
Do you think that Darcy can be "brought back to life"?
🙏🏿❤RIP,sweet girl
Every person in Australia knows about all these cases or they should
Which one do you resonate with the most?
The last one.... how could he do that ... throw his daughter away??? So heartbreaking 💔
I'd never heard of Ebony's case before I was 15 at the time.
Yes we do, we will never forget those children lost, murdered by these monster cowedly men. On the odd occasion I’ve travelled over the Westgate Bridge, I think of dear little Darcy and her brothers, so sad for her mother waiting for her to arrive at school. He wasn’t crazy, he is evil and it was an act of revenge.
I've never heard of these cases
Evil demonic humans…with black souls destroying one family foundation after another…times are getting more and more chaotic…be careful out there everyone…
Poor innocent little girl…I’m so sorry for your loss 🙏🏻
We feel for their families
My heart breaks for Mrs Simpson the hurt she’s suffered, cannot imagine wish you peace ❤️
❤
The 90s and years before were so different. I walked home from the bus and was basically unsupervised my whole life. I graduated HS in 1995. These days, I have kept my kids as close as possible- it’s a different time…
Ebony's headstone really got me. RIP baby girl. All these are awful.
It is horrible
Arthur Freeman was an arrogant and spiteful pos. Like has happened with many other parents going through a difficult divorce or separation, they choose to hurt their spouse in the worst way possible. That proves to me that they don't love their children. Not one bit. He murdered his precious little girl and he also traumatized his 2 boys for life. RIP Darcy 😢
Couldn't imagine the fear and pain that little girl was feeling when someone she completely trusted could do something horrific as to what happened to Darcy, I refuse to go anywhere near that bridge my family feel the same way.
That's totally fair, the memory is simply heartbreaking
I remember Ebony Simpsons case like it was yesterday. We were all so hopefull she’d be found safe and well. 😢💔
One of the most heartbreaking cases we've come across
To Ebony's mum . No you don't ever have to forgive . I wouldn't either . I'm sorry for what you and your family went through and still are going through . May you find some peace knowing what a wonderful mum you were and that these dreadful monsters are out there . Love to your sons and husband . I would absolutely love the death penalty as there's no rehabilitation for monsters . He not a man but a monster. May you go on with rest of your life and. Cherish the good memories you had with Ebbony 😢
Well said!
So much evil !!!
We can't even begin to imagine how the victims families feel
Just what I was thinking.
A Prison Officer had been asked in an interview about Garforth's behaviour, the Officer stated that on being instructed to vacate his Cell for Yard time, Garforth had complained that he "couldn't be bothered, that he has a shitty existence"... the Officer said he was livid at hearing this and ordered Garforth to stand up and leave the Cell saying : "after what you've done, you don't get to tell us what you can and can't be bothered doing when that little Girl has no existence at all anymore..", Garforth had sniggered at the Officers comment, upon which the Officer had thrown Garforth at the Cell wall and marched him out to the Prison Yard....
That's incredibly interesting - where did you see this interview?
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel
It is an excerpt from a Book on Australian crime, I think it was James Phelps, he wrote a number of Books on Australian Maximum Security Prisons.
Long Bay, Goulburn, Pentridge.
Thank you - we will have to check them out
No one should be told how to feel. I lost my daughter 11 years ago and the pain is still as raw and I'm still angry.. she correct, that man does not belong among us, he is a danger and these men do Not change or get better... Hugs
Sorry to hear this ❤️
Thank you
I never get feelings even I watch these programmes which I have done for years but this got me - rest in peace ❤
Appreciate you sharing your thoughts ❤
I remember that day he threw his daughter over that bridge. Horrifying to see 😢
Such a horrific case
Same. I was driving over the Westgate not long after it happened. They had two lanes on that side closed (I was travelling in the opposite direction after Mrs Bushy #2’s heart specialist appointment), and he was already in the back of the divvy van at that stage (this was at about 10:30-11am) and a tow truck was just getting there to tow his car away. Didn’t know what happened until we got back to Melton and switched on the midday news.
Pure evil 😈
Horrific cases
Yk what angers me.. the way they try to say oh he had a rough childhood or blame something in his past for his action's, at the end of the day it was his choice to end a little kids life and if he was insane how on earth was he a enlisted serviceman? I bet he claimed insane to avoid the death penalty.
Interesting points
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel I tend to watch a lot of crime stuff 😅
You have every right in the world to be bloody angry !!!U go Mumma Bear !!
Never let your young one walk alone.
Do you think times have changed?
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel Definitely
Innocence of all these young children meet pure evil. Personally would not be able to forgive. At least some good has come out of these pointless deaths. May you always remain Angels
It's an awful tragedy but thank you for trying to find something positive
I could barely get thru the Ebony Simpson case. I just cried my eyes out. One thing her mum said that rings true. You do not have to forgive to move on RIP Ebony. Much love to your beautiful family
I will never forget the murder of Ebony Simpson. We lived in the town of Bargo . Arena Road was so remote and this little girl should not have been left to go and come from school on her own. R.I.P beautiful little angel 😢❤
Who are these people to tell
Ebony's mother that she shouldn't be angry at the man
who took her daughter's life?!,
she should be angry!, if l was in
her shoes, l too, couldn't forgive that disgusting piece of trash.
I hope that in time Ebony's mother will find some peace.
🙁😡
I knew Linda Stilwell in 1967 at Avondale Primary School. At the time of her abduction she had moved schools. I still think of her and her case, and of her family. It was felt amongst some local families that she was taken out of the country via New Zealand as no passports were required between Australia and New Zealand at that time. Hearing that police had checked boats on the area was interesting. I have always wondered whether the Dunedin lady once rumoured to be Jane Boumont could in fact be Linda Stilwell. She did look like her so I questioned it with Dunedin police and Russell Street at the time but was dismissed in both instances. I’m still not satisfied with that.
There are horrible sickened minds just around waiting to do wicked things to hurt people especially children. . So sickening 🤬
Truly awful
Hugs for this mum❤ You channeled your grief into positive change so your babies death wasn’t in vain ❤️
He threw his daughter over the bridge because he didn't want his ex-wife to have the children. On top of this, he was going to throw the middle child over as well, then the oldest son.
He knew what he was doing. The poor little girl tried to fight her dad
So horrible
I cried for days over Darcy..😢
The bodies in the dunes. Another horrific case. In the middle of the day, yet unseen. Very scary 😮😮
Very scary
I am glad after all that indecision he was found guilty, otherwise the mother's emotions would remain one of anger. After the guilty verdict she was able to grieve her daughter with the emotions associated with grief and loss. He knew what he was doing. He did it to spite her mother. What a monster!
Absolutely a monster!
He's not insane, he's evil. You can't rehabilitate evil
Should we at least try to rehabilitate evil or simply lock it away?
So sad for the mom. It’s hurts so much for her
Absolutely heartbreaking
I heard the first story before, I can’t imagine going through the loss of a child. My heart goes out to the family and everyone involved.
So heartbreaking
Am very deeply sorry about your loss, I swear I feel it.
Absolutely tragic cases - thanks for watching
Omg that picture of ebonys mom looking at her broke my entire heart. You can see the love in her face. Im so sorry :(
It is devastating
You just want to wrap your arms around the families and take away all their hurt. ❤
Absolutely
we need australia to start having a register for these predators so we know as parents where they live in our area to protect our children its disgusting that they are protected government needs to stand up and look at this
Interesting thought

I remember these cases, so heartbreaking so horrible, those poor you g girls and the devastation they’re family’s went through RIP sweet angels
Did it change the way you lived?
It definitely changed how I live, that’s for sure😢
@@TheTrueCrimeChannel it certainly changed how my son grew up, he was 4 when this happened and I never let him out of my sight
Fair enough - it would definitely have an impact on most people
20/20 hindsight and I bet those 2 poor teenage boys were wishing they'd picked her up when they saw her, but who would have thought this could happen
The first story killed me 💔💔🤍
It's absolutely heartbreaking ❤
I don’t get why this man called Darcy attractive??? She was 4?? Such a strange wording
Probably to heighten the nature of the tragedy, the media has been known to sensationalise crime
These are brutally heartbreaking 💔 RIP Angels
Such horrific crimes
Horrific in every way! I'm always baffled how/why criminals of this nature get a light sentence , only to be released to do it again! I pray prisoners in Australia are similar to American Prisoners, who do what the Judicial System fails to do; REAL Justice!!
Crazy to think a child walking home is so controversial and the parents are more demonized than the actual killers. Like from age 7 I walked home from school which was about 30min and spent two hours home alone, I also woke up to an empty house and was alone for an hour before walking to school. This wasn't the 90s it was mid 2000s and I couldn't imagine having to be walked to school by someone. Even now it seems strange, my mother could not afford care and why would she? I could always take care of myself like I said I woke myself up, got ready and was never once late to school even during thunder and snowstorms. It's so sad children today are so leashed and sheltered because of cases like these. The impact from these killers so heavily impacts he world today that I knew of parents who got the police called on them for letting their 10 year old walk the dog by themself ( also crazy because I had a dog at 12 and not only walked it at 6am by myself but also took it to puppy school by myself). It's impossible to shelter your kids from such creeps, and it's hard to find he balance between children having freedom and safety. But, even if it was today and a parent let their kid walk home from school and something horrible happened to the kid I wouldnt blame the parents but the person who actually hurt the kid. Also people dont always have a choice like my mom didnt have anyone who could walk me even if she wanted to.
Edit: Not super relevant but just to clarify. The parents would have some fault if it was like a 4 year old or a child that didnt have maturity to be able to walk home safely. Like if the kid ran out in front of car or jumped into a river and died that would be more toward the parents blame because they should know their kid wasnt ready to be independent. But, we are more talking about something out of the child's control of some creep snatching them which has little to do with how mature or independent the child is. Like even teenagers can be kidnapped by creeps. Like for me I was extremely mature I had been adultified very young but I know many of peers wouldnt be able to manage that or even walk 5 min from home without getting in trouble. All I'm saying is in situations like this blame the monster who hurt the kid and not the parent because the controversy about letting a kid walk home alone doesnt have a right answer. Your kid can be snatched from their bed, if a creep wants your kid they'll get them it's sad but it is true. Even with how hard it is nowadays, a few years ago a car pulled up beside a mother and daughter walking and snatched the daughter by force, ripping her from her mom and shoving her into the car, the kid was like 8 aswell. Should we blame the mom for not having the police escort her on a walk?
Thanks for sharing
I remember all these cases. May they all rest in peace

How can a dad throw his own child off a bridge?
I will never forget this day, she looked just like my daughter it upset me warching her play with her brithers, then throw her over in front of them, I do hope they are okay i think of her often and the boys. Xx
Truly a tragic case - thanks for watching ❤
Ebony’s mother is the strongest woman in the world for carrying on for her 2 boys💔
100%
These cases are so very sad. I have heard of Ebony's case and watched a documentary about Derek Percy. Darcy Freeman 's story I haven't heard about before. These awful diabolical men have far too many privileges when the victims families live with the pain of what happened to their child, forever.
It's heartbreaking
Crimes against kids is the most heinous acts....My oldest almost got kidnapped, I would have been in prison for murder
Sorry to hear this
No, I'm sorry, nice to say so for the media and youtube, but things have NOT changed for family violence victims in Australia, even today
Forgiveness does not mean setting the guilty person free of their crimes. It means setting yourself free from bitterness because once bitterness takes hold of you it’s not healthy. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be angry about what happened but having bitterness means you are forever thinking about thst criminal who took thst precious life. If you forgive him you are no longer chained to him. You can move on taking those precious memories with you
Thank you for sharing
Yep, he who angers you, controls you.
NUNCA DEBIO DEJARSE DE USAR LA HORCA NI LA GUILLOTINA ........
