Depressed mum whose two children were tragically murdered five months ago by her estranged husband found dead at home
An Australian mother who tragically lost both her children in a double murder-suicide committed by her estranged husband was found dead at her home on the morning of Wednesday, December 12. 36-year-old Olga Edwards' death was confirmed by police who responded to her residence in West Pennant Hills in Sydney's northwest on a routine welfare check after she failed to respond to any calls. At the moment, her death is not being treated as suspicious.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Olga had been depressed and on a downward spiral since her estranged husband, John Edwards shot and killed both their children, 15-year-old Jack and 13-year-old Jennifer, on July 5. Edwards then drove to a home he had bought in Normanhurst, just a suburb away, and shot and killed himself 12 hours later.
