The Case of a Murder Suicide

Under the passenger seat was a grapefruit-sized rock. It had been used to beat Julianne's face and hands during the attack. A blood-stained serrated knife with a wooden handle was lying under Vicky's left thigh. Its blade was bent at a 45-degree angle, later identified as matching a set of steak knives that she owned. Police theorised that Vicky had gone up the track to find the rock and had lost her shoes there in the process. Within an hour of arriving at the scene, officers had come to a conclusion. They were dealing with an open and shut case of a murder suicide.
