<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2124896/open_sms">Send us a text</a>In March 2004, in a quiet suburb of Melbourne, Australia, Anna Kemp and her 20-month-old daughter Gracie were brutally murdered by the very person who should have loved and protected them the most — husband and father, John Sharpe. Armed with a speargun, he shot Anna and Gracie multiple times, killing them in cold blood. Anna was also pregnant with their second child who she had named Francis.  After killing his whole family, Sharpe appeared in the media, tearfully pleading for their return and spinning the lie that Anna had left him, taking Gracie with her. But behind the cameras was a killer, hiding in plain sight. His deception didn’t last and Sharpe was sentenced to 33 years in prison for the calculated, monstrous slaughter of his own family. This is the story of the Kemp Family.  Information and support ·       Samaritans UK <a href='https://www.samaritans.org/how-we-can-help/contact-samaritan/'>Contact Us | Samaritans</a> ·       Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse (AAFDA) <a href='https://aafda.org.uk/'>Home - AAFDA</a>·       Women’s Aid <a href='https://www.womensaid.org.uk/'>Home - Women's Aid</a>·       National Domestic Abuse Helpline UK 0808 2000 247·       Mental health support USA <a href='https://www.mhanational.org/'>Mental Health America | Homepage | Mental Health America</a>·       Domestic abuse helpline USA 1.800.799.SAFE <a href='https://www.thehotline.org/'>Domestic Violence Support | National Domestic Violence Hotline</a>  References  <a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpe_family_murders'>Sharpe family murders - Wikipedia</a> <a href='https://web.archive.org/web/20090914235945/http:/www.mako.org.au/newsart275.html'>Australian News- john myles sharpe</a> <a href='https://morbidology.com/the-sharpe-family-murders/'>The Sharpe Family Murders • Morbidology</a> <a href='https://www.ourtruecrimepodcast.com/2020/02/75-mornington-monster-family.html'>Our True Crime Podcast: 75.
