Nonetheless, Sgt. Sheridan said, “We obviously take it very seriously” and have conducted “three independent inquiries” into the claims against Mr. Munro and Max in the Beaumont case. That will likely be where it ends, he said.

“There is no crime scene. There is no clues. There’s nothing to submit for DNA analysis. This is a case that won’t be solved by technology.”

weazel wrote:I am Max McIntyres youngest daughter from his second marriage. My father sexually abused me from a very young age. This abuse was severe and sadistic. Since 2007 my two eldest surviving siblings and I went to the authorities in our state to have our abuse acknowledge d and our father incarcerated. It was also in 2007 that we collectively alerted both state and federal police that our fathers friend Anthony Munro was also a paedophile. Nothing was done about Munro until 2016.

I believe that both australian federal police and south australian police should be held accountable for continuing to allow Anthony Munro continue to travel to and from Australia and Cambodia despite Munros status as a convicted paedophile. My father Max remains a free man despite the corroborating anecdotal evidence of three of his children that he is an incestuous paedophile, mass murderer and procurer of child pornography.

I am sick of having to revert to media sources to have this issue professionally investigated. The way that the south Australian police have treated myself and siblings beggars belief. The (now defunct) Police Complaints Authorities only role was to protect its senior officers from prosecution. At least one of those PCA officers who chose to ignore my allegations of police misconduct in 2012 now works for the SA police ombudsman. I know this because I made a complaint about his misconduct to the police ombudsman.

Confoundingly, this officer was allowed to make a determination (on the Police Ombudsman's behalf) not to investigate my allegations against his deplorable statement to me (whilst he was still at the PCA) that I had been 'dealt with'. It is obvious to me now that sa police do not want to solve the cold cases my father is responsible for. Back in the 1990's the sa police ran 'operation Deny'. During this operation in Australia there was also a sister police operation in England called 'operation Red Tag'. Both operations investigated a child sex trafficking organisation of well organised paedophiles operating between the two countries.

In 2012 I was given a letter, written by my father and addressed to the same Senior Sargeant David Sheridan quoted in Janelle Retkas 'Murder, Buried' article. In this letter my father asks that i be 'red tagged, as police once did'. I believe my father not only holds vital evidence regarding child abduction cold cases in south Australia, but in England as well. At present, one of my sisters has power of attorney over our fathers affairs. She also stands to inherit the property on which the well exists where my older brother and sister believe the Beaumont's are buried. This sibling with power of attorney doesn't want the well dug up.

I have alleged since 2012 that another of my fathers properties (now owned by a niece) also holds the human remains of one of my fathers murder victims. I saw this girl murdered and buried on this suburban adelaide property. A conviction was recently secured for this girls murder. This is the second time sapol has secured a conviction for this young girls murder against the wrong man (the man originally convicted of her murder was acquitted on appeal in 1985, as mentioned above.) I believe that the second man convicted of her murder this year will also be acquitted on appeal, if he can secure one. He didn't kill this poor girl, Max did. Speaking up about these issues is dangerous.

One of our sisters, who was also a witness to the Beaumont children in the boot of our fathers car, died in very strange circumstances in 2009, a month after telling family members that someone was trying to kill her. Somehow, the coroner ruled her death a suicide. Despite the protests of myself and siblings no inquest was ordered. We continue to do whatever we can to have justice served. I think my eldest sister (quoted in Janelle's article) is correct in saying that sapol want these matters to remain buried. Their conduct towards us thus far reeks of corruption. No other explanation makes sense.
