This one always breaks my heart no matter how many times I've heard it. Couldn't imagine ALL 3 KIDS taken. The parents..idk..idk how you reconcile with it.
When I was a kid in the early eighties my sister and I were on a Glenelg tram and we were approached by an elderly man. I can’t remember what he said to us but I was scared and started to cry. I looked at my older sister who was also primary school age and saw the horror on her face. Luckily for us an elderly lady had been watching and said “you girls come over here and sit by me”. I see pics of Arthur Stanley Brown now and they creep me out. My sister also. Makes me wonder!!!
I will never understand how anyone could play such horrible 'pranks' on a family desperately searching for their children. Should be prison time for that bs
Agreed; I really doubt an unknown person to any of them, especially the oldest Could have been a guy on the train (?bus) , at the beach, or a shop-owner. It would be very difficult to keep track of three young kids. Maybe the oldest was the indended victim, yet the other two were potential witnesses/accusors so they had to also. Auto correct is a bitch
I think they were most likely abducted. No refection on the parents,and this is just my opinion,but a nine year old is too young, to be responsible,for two younger children.
I agree my 2 older brothers were the same age as Arnna & Grant and my Mum wouldn't have let them cross roads and go to a beach alone. Never mind abduction-cars and drowning come to mind.
@@andysmith1996 I can only speak from my own experience,as a child that young,I was never left alone. But then,I grew up in Philadelphia,which has always had a high crime rate. I think environment has a lot to do with it.
@@BonnieCassler-dx6sd Yes, environment is important. In Australia and New Zealand at that time children spent a lot of time on their own, and it was common for older children to look after their younger siblings.
My mom (born 1949) often watched over her younger sisters. But letting them go swimming to the sea...I have almost 4yo daughter and I would not let her go to the sea with her older siblings! No way. Even the oldest one, Jane, could have drowned.
I thought the same thing about the Sodder Children too. It’s not that the cases are similar but they’re both unsolved cases of children who disappeared.
They were buried for a short time at Phipp's factory because after the holiday break, the furnace was not fired up again until several days into February. That's where the children's bodies ended up together with their towels, bags etc. Not a trace of them will ever be found.
I can never work out why Jane said at the bakery "and a pie for the man" He obviously had their trust. Gave them yhe pound note. Why no name? Even if it was not his real name
I think this predator spend some time grooming these kids. I don't think these kids would have gone with him after just having met him. No he played with and talked to them before. So he probably said he would walk with them to the bus stop. He stalled a bit to make sure they missed the bus. Than he said , look I have a car. I can bring you home. They agreed and once in his car they were trapped. I don't want to think about what he did to them after he had them. But once he had his way with them, he killed them and made them disappear.
Pretty obvious the young man seen with them that day is the culprit.He never came forward to say he was with them or even showed up to deny he had anything to do with their abduction. There is only one reason for him to remain anonymous. The probable scenario was that he had indeed been grooming the oldest girl over a period of weeks before he thought she would be willing to participate in what he had in mind. On that day he tried it on with her away from the two other siblings but she was horrified having no suspicions that he was what he was. The die was cast, he knew if he let her go she would tell her parents, and his life would be ruined and spend time in goal, so as with any of these degenerates he took the coward's way out by murdering all three. Only he knows where he dumped the bodies but he must have known the area very well and any coastal areas are easy to hide bodies due to the size of the area and tides. If it ever gets solved one day you can bet he had a previous record for paedophilia and was known to the police.
Well, its safe to say they were abducted and that was that. Three young trusting kids, completely alone and vulnerable like that 🤷♂️ Kids don't just stop going home, someone stopped them and took them.
Seems like it would be difficult to kidnap three at one time. It seems like at least one could have escaped. Unless there was a helper like Myra Hinley helped Ian Brady in the Moors murders.
Correction: Derek Percy was in the Navy and had a car. An attempted abduction led to his car being identified and him being caught while washing his clothes. Sadly he was washing because he abducted, raped, and killed a little girl.
As monsters go, Derek Percy and Bevan Spencer von Einem would have to be top of the pile in terms of sheer depravity within Australia. If authorities ever think of releasing von Einem, I would be happy to lead the outcry that would surely result. Police suspect he was involved with all the five Family murders in Adelaide. Personally, I think he was responsible for many many more abductions, tortures and murders of teens/men. He truly makes my skin crawl for what those boys went through
I suspect they were abducted by an unknown man, that wasn't really unknown to them but had groomed them for some time so they would follow him without question or suspicion. The oldest girl seems to have a certain "glow" about her, like she had a crush and was secretely in love with somebody. Now, this is an extremely controversial subject, since it concerns a girl of such a young age. Even if it wasn't sexual feelings on her part, she could still have been deeply in love, as in the puppy love children can display at that age. If the perpetrator was a young man but an adult nonetheless, she may have wanted to keep her feelings secret. And if so, he may have groomed her over time so that she would trust him, like giving her presents or money. Like the money they used to pay for those snacks. Perhaps he had met them on previous occassions on the beach and bought them ice cream? If so, they wouldn't have objected leaving the beach with him, if he had suggested it.
All other reports state that the children took a bus to the beach the day they disappeared, not that their father drove them there as stated here. I'd like to know when was the last time and where neighbours, friends actually saw the three children, not just people who didn't know them but thought they saw them. The local mail man knew them and he said he saw them on their way back home in the afternoon, but then was persuaded he must be mistaken. Sadly , experience has taught us that most children are murdered by family members rather than strangers. In the 60s this would be unthinkable. Were the Beaumont parents even investigated ?
@@lorrainedalgleish7616 No, he saw them walking in the general direction towards home but saw them walk across the street to where a bakery was. The bakery owner (who knew the children) said they bought cakes and a meat pie and said it was for “the man”. Bought with a 1 pound note that the mother said they didn’t leave home with. A lot of money. They were not seen again after the bakery. There is a mountain of circumstantial evidence against harry phipps and his 15 year son said he saw his dad with 3 children outside their home between 12-12.30 that afternoon. The parents 100% did not have anything to do with this.
@@Lujizika I thought that the bakery was near the beach ? I still would like to know the parents ' statements to the police ; were their alibis checked and verified; when neighbours actually last saw the children,
@@lorrainedalgleish7616 Their home was also near the beach, though. I’m sure the years people have looked into the parents as well but with everything else they know about the case it just doesn’t seem plausible or make any sense.
I think trafficked maybe they weee at the the beach somehow lured off it taken to say a van driven further away along the coast put on a boat gone so i dont think it would have been that difficult
The only possible explanation is a coverup, as it was well-known that Mr and Mrs Beaumont were in possession of invisibility cloaks and a time machine.
Check out Psychic Scott Russell Hill-he knew the kids-his father said he saw the kids with 2 men and 1 woman. One of the men was linked to a stable in the area-and Harry Phipps lived close to where they were seen walking. Apparently the Beaumonts had BBQ's and Scott suspects that is how the kids knew the man. He bought them lunch-offered to show them some horses and to drop them home later.
The Snowtown stuff happened in Snowtown because there was an old bank building that was cheap to rent...so one of the people doing the murders rented it to put some already full barrels in. Then the group did a few more murders there because the bank building had some thick walls to dampen sound. The actual perpetrators and their victims lived a long way away. Back when the Beaumont's went missing, the banks hadn't started shutting down branches in country towns and the bank building was still an active bank. And the area far away that produced most of the victims and perpetrators hadn't become so full of unemployed and mentally ill people.
Personally I think there was an accident and the children were swept out to sea. Eyewitness accounts are notoriously fickle, dates and times aren’t recalled exactly. Sightings of the children could be other kids. It’s a bit hard for three children to disappear off the face and the earth
@debbieanne7962 There were no accidents or sweeping out to sea. They were seen leaving with a man. He gave them a one pound note to buy lunch. Nancy Beaumont never gave them any notes so someone gave them the one pound note.
Of course they looked into it but all witnesses place them as having left the beach …and no evidence they went back, nor would they. Also did they take all their towels, items into the sea too as these were never located
They were not 'roaming'. Their mother instructed them to catch a bus they were familiar with to go to the beach and were they were told to be back by lunchtime.
Different times. I grew up in Germany, and would run around town by myself. I’m same age as Grant. No one thought anything of it. The three Beaumont children missing breaks my heart. No one in their right mind, would let their children go alone these days. The guilt those parents had to live with all those years. I would have taken my life. Some things are too horrific to live with, and that would have been it for me.
@@7colliemacYes, briefly. 5:15 of video. He said he saw them that afternoon then changed his story and said he had no idea what time and it may have been in the morning.
Both parents have passed away now, they were in their 90s. They never got closure. Heartbreaking💔😞
This one always breaks my heart no matter how many times I've heard it. Couldn't imagine ALL 3 KIDS taken. The parents..idk..idk how you reconcile with it.
I remember my parents discussing this horror. A crime of this heinous nature was incomprehensible in Australia in 1966 .

I’m sure this man abducted them and killed them. They will probably never be found
I will never understand how anyone could play such horrible 'pranks' on a family desperately searching for their children. Should be prison time for that bs
How can 3 children just vanish off the earth like that?
I think the kids were, sadly, abducted
This story has always fascinated me. So heartbreaking. It would be so good to find anwers and put them to rest 😢❤
Experts say it's usually a person the victim(s) know. That's why it's so easy for the perpetrator to mislead the victim.
Agreed; I really doubt an unknown person to any of them, especially the oldest Could have been a guy on the train (?bus) , at the beach, or a shop-owner.

Tragic. I think of this story from time to time, and it is haunting. Lord sustain their family and community.
I think they were most likely abducted.
No refection on the parents,and this is just my opinion,but a nine year old is too young, to be responsible,for two younger children.
That's how things were back then. Children younger than that routinely spent most of the day playing with mates away from home.

I don’t know. To me it’s clear to me the Sodder children died in the fire.
Nothing like each other, aside from involving multiple children in same family..that’s where it ends

They're on a continent surrounded by the ocean. Not too difficult to dispose of 3 dead bodies

Your theory is totally way off
Maybe the guy frequently went to beach and became friends with kids, gaining trust, I still think it was Percy
Very obviously abducted by lad seen with them, no idea how he hid 3 dead children, no idea how he achieved it all, but he did.
The early stories that it was a "lad" were wrong. Witnesses identified a man 30-40 years old.
To kidnap 3 kids you probably need another person
@@KarenSmith-co5gm not really….

Yeah that would be great. I hadn’t heard of them until hearing about them on a podcast. Crazy story.
