On the 31 March 1985, 35 year old Linda Moser and her two daughters 14 year old Donna and 10 year old Joanne left a church service to meet their father and her ex-husband Leon Moser so he could spend time with Donna and Joanne that afternoon.

Instead of planning a nice afternoon with his daughters, Moser took a rifle from his car and shot 10 year old Joanne, his ex-wife Linda and his 14 year old daughter Donna.

A man with a history of abuse who blamed Linda and her family for his misfortune, Moser was killed by lethal injection in August 1995.

This is the story of the Moser 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.

In March 1974 39 year old Pamela Panes and her three children Graham aged 7, Angela aged 6 and Adrian aged 4 were killed by husband and father Roger Panes in Hampshire in the UK. Roger then took his own life.

The Panes family belonged to the Plymouth Brethren religion. Before the murders, Roger had been forcibly “shut up” — or shunned from the religious community he’d grown up in. His own wife and children were instructed to shun him as well. That isolation pushed Roger into a downward spiral: first an attempt on his own life, then the decision to murder his whole family.

A family were taken, and the community were left with questions about the role of religion in their murders.

This is the story of the Panes family.

In June 1994 Im Pun (Sylvia) Zakrzewski and her two children Edward and Anna were brutally killed by husband and father Edward Zakrzewski. Sylvia was planning on leaving Zakrzewski. As soon as he found that out – he planned the murders.

Nearly 30 years after he killed his whole family, on 31 July this year, Zakrzewski was executed by the State of Florida by lethal injection. His execution set the state’s record for the highest number of annual executions that year so far – totalling nine at that point.

A brutal man, who killed his family brutally, died brutally this year.

This is the story of the Zakrezweski Family.

On Christmas Day in 1929 37 year old Fannie Manring and six of her seven children – Marie, Carrie, Maybell, James, Raymond and Mary-Lou were killed by husband and father Charles Lawson in North Carolina. Her eldest child Arthur was spared.

In a seemingly premeditated familicide Charles took his family to have a family portrait taken the day before he killed them all – apart from his son Arthur. He then took his own life.

With speculation about motives ranging from a head injury to incest and child abuse, this familicide remains one of the most infamous murders in American history.

This is the story of the Lawson Family.

In November 1983, in the town of Bloomington, Illinois, 30-year-old Susan Hendricks and her three children — 9-year-old Rebekah, 7-year-old Grace, and 5-year-old Benjamin — were found brutally murdered in their family home.

Their husband and father, David Hendricks, was away on a business trip at the time. But when calls home went unanswered, he rushed back — only to find his entire family gone.

Very quickly, suspicion turned toward him. The successful businessman, the devout family man — now the prime suspect. In 1984, David Hendricks was convicted of killing his wife and children.

But seven years later  his conviction was overturned. He walked free in 1991 — and has never been charged again.

The murder of The Hendricks Family remains officially unsolved but was it – after all – their husband and father who killed his whole family and who got away with murder?

This is the story of the Hendricks Family. Information and support
