The disappearance of the beaumont children: the mysterious crime that went unsolved

It's been more than half a century since the disappearance of the beaumont children. In the process of investigation was nominated and considered the different versions, even absurd. The case involved a psychic, but he was powerless. So how did the disappearance of just three kids from the same family?

In fact, since 1966, the police failed to make the case of the abduction of some clarity. We only know about feeding parents reported her missing children. After that, kids, no one ever saw. They even considered version of the abduction by parents of their daughters and a son. But then it has failed.

Day 26 January 1966 in Australia has been quite hot. And the kids wanted to go to the beach. The older girl Jane, the former for his young age, particularly serious and responsible, was supposed to babysit the youngest – Ary and Grant. At 10 am the Trinity went to the beach Glenelg, promising to noon to go home.

When the children did not appear at the appointed time, his mother decided that they just missed the bus and arrive at the following. Coming at the time of his arrival to a stop, she did not find daughters and son and in him. Waiting for wife, Nancy beaumont went with him to the beach. The evening of the same day, the spouses filed a complaint with the police, and the night was searched beach.

The next morning the search was continued, but was organized more carefully. The incident was resonant, and the search operation was joined by a large number of volunteers. As core were considered two versions: the abduction and an accident on the water.

However, the second was soon swept away as implausible as not to notice the drowning of three children on the beach would be impossible. Besides, the banks had to stay things – clothes, shoes, towels, and they were not.

Simultaneously with the search were interviewing witnesses. The bus driver confirmed that the guys got to the beach, a stay which has been proved by several local residents. According to eyewitnesses, some time after them from a distance watched the blond in a blue suit. Then a man walked up to the kids and playing games.

After some time (approximately 12.15) they all left the beach. A local merchant remembered that the older girl Jane approached him to buy a cake and cookies. For the Goodies she had given 1 pound, but this amount Trinity positioning could not, because the mother gave them only 8 shillings and 6 pence.

The last witness who saw the guys beaumont, was the postman. But he was confused in the testimony, pointing out first that the meeting occurred on the morning and then that it was two in the afternoon. The man said that the children were alone without adult supervision.

Nancy beaumont insisted that the children would never talk to or play with a stranger. And, moreover, would not take his money and nowhere to go. This suggests that fair-haired man girl and baby Grant knew. The mother remembered that Arna once told her about the new friend of my sister, but I thought we are talking about the same age.

News about the disappearance of the children have acquired a national scale. Thoroughly inspected the shore, the coastal seabed. But no trace of the children and their belongings were found. The result is guilty of kidnapping in the case of the "Family murders" was not found. Parapsychologist and a psychiatrist Gerard Croiset from the Netherlands also failed to clarify.

For a long time, the wife Nancy and Jim lived in the same house, keeping the children's room intact, expecting daughters and a son one day return home. But the more time passed, the less chance remained. And the more desperate parents.

They rejected already any, even the most absurd theories of the disappearance of children up to the ritual murders. By the time the marriage was cracked: a husband and wife are unable to jointly cope with the loss and divorced. Two years ago Nancy died, never seeing their children.
