Queensland’s state coroner is scheduled to hear evidence regarding the motivations of the three individuals who shot and killed two police officers and a civilian.
The murders of Constables Matthew Arnold and Rachel McCrow, as well as their neighbour Alan Dare, who were shot and ambushed in December 2022 at a remote property in the Western Downs region west of Brisbane, are the subject of an inquest.
In response to a missing persons report, the constables and their two escaped colleagues went to the Wieambilla property.
That evening, a gunfight between the shooters, Nathaniel, Gareth, and Stacey Train, and specialised police resulted in their deaths.
A forensic psychiatrist who was invited to offer an expert opinion on the Trains’ mental states prior to and during the incident is among the witnesses scheduled to speak in Brisbane Coroners Court on Monday.
Additionally scheduled to speak is a professor who has produced a paper detailing the political, theological, and intellectual influences that influenced the Trains’ acts.
Witnesses have previously testified in court regarding the circumstances surrounding the deaths of Mr. Dare and the two constables, and the court has seen graphic film.
The Queensland Police response to the three fatalities, including the rescue of Constable Keely Brough, who sought refuge in grassland next to a burned-out truck after her colleagues were slain, has been discussed at the inquest.
In their testimony, specialised officers who entered the home in armoured cars described how they tried to negotiate a surrender with the Trains but were met with gunfire.
During the inquiry, Coroner Terry Ryan will look into over 20 points, including the details that NSW Police supplied regarding the Nathaniel Train missing persons complaint that prompted Queensland officers to visit the house.
Nathaniel Train’s unauthorised entry into Queensland during the COVID-19 NSW border lockdown, as well as the family’s source of weapons and ammunition, will be the subject of the inquiry.
Mr. Ryan will also take into account if there was any information known to the authorities that could have suggested there was a chance the Trains would behave as they did on December 12, 2022, including the way the police handled calls involving firearms in the same vicinity.
Three more weeks will pass during the hearing. Wieambilla inquest investigated police fatalities to learn the intentions of the gunmen.
