“Significant amount of blood” suggests the missing men were murdered
Detective Superintendent Jodi Radmore of the NSW Police Force told the press that a worker discovered several of the men's blood-stained items in a garbage bin near Sydney on Wednesday (February 21).
Police officers then found a “significant” amount of blood in Blaird’s apartment.
The NSW Police Force therefore assumes that only the bodies can be found.
It is believed that the murders took place in the ex-TV presenter's apartment.
The men are then said to have been transported away in a van, which was seen on surveillance cameras.
Unfortunately, relationship crimes with a fatal outcome are not uncommon.
In Germany alone, 133 women and 19 men died at the hands of their partners in 2022, as the Federal Office for Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth reports.
Most recently, the murder of a student in St. Leon-Rot caused a stir.
The alleged perpetrator was the 18-year-old's ex-boyfriend.
In 2023, a man from Mannheim killed his ex-girlfriend while both children were in the apartment.
