1. Relatives of Bedford murder victims learned of their deaths from television news.
A woman whose sister, mother and three nieces were killed in their home in Bedford, Perth, has told media she learned about their deaths while watching the news.
Taryn Tottman and her husband Alan told ABC News they turned on the television on Sunday to see footage featuring the home of her sister, Mara Harvey, in a story about a murder investigation.
“I turned the TV on and I saw my sister’s fence and I knew it was her fence,” Taryn Tottman said. “Part of me didn’t think it was real.”
The bodies of 41-year-old Mara, her mother Beverly Ann Quinn, three-year-old daughter Charlotte and two-year-old twins Alice and Beatrix were discovered earlier that day in the home in the city’s northeast.

Mara's husband and the children's father, 24-year-old Anthony Robert Harvey, has been charged with five counts of murder. Police will allege he killed his wife and children on Monday and took his 73-year-old mother-in-law's life the following day. They believe he remained in the house with the bodies for several days before travelling to a remote Pilbara town and reporting to police.
Alan Tottman told ABC News he wasn't aware of "trouble or problems" in the family prior to the alleged murders.
"It is just unfathomable, we can't come to terms with what has happened," he said. "We don't know why it has happened."
He and his wife said the horrific events have been difficult to explain to their young children.

"The mayor of Puerto Rico's capital accused Trump of being "delusional".
"Simply put: delusional, paranoid, and unhinged from any sense of reality. Trump is so vain he thinks this is about him. NO IT IS NOT," San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz tweeted."
Trump is getting worse rapidly - he can't possibly remain in that job for much longer...................in fact I can't see him surviving those mid-term elections where the Democrats are tipped to win back enough seats to correct the terrible imbalance in The White House.
Then we'll see the full force of his vindictiveness & childish excuses, sackings & name-blaming. He will attempt to rally his more ignorant supporters into behaving violently & destructively . He will have to be watched carefully.
If there really are some noble Republicans left they'll have to keep him away from that "big red button" when he lashes out.
