..I believe are quiet often harder on men than women resulting in some crazy crazy behaviour. Having gone through divorce and the heart break of a family break up its exceptioonally hard in the early stages around christmas and our summer holiday, but I cant imagine the total devestation this family must be feeling now.


Please, if anyone of you are going through tough family times, NOTHING is worth going to these extremes, NOTHING.


'Big fight' warning on girl's bridge death


05:00 AEST Fri Jan 30 2009

1 hour 47 minutes ago



A note warning of a "big fight" has been found in the home of the man who allegedly threw his daughter off Melbourne's West Gate Bridge.


The Herald Sun claims a search of Arthur Freeman's house in the hours after his arrest uncovered a note left on top of his TV warning him to "keep a clear head".


Another part of the partly-legible note warns "you have a big fight on your hands and by no stretch of the imagination will it be easy", according to reports.


Freeman was expected to appear in the Melbourne Magistrate's Court yesterday for a filing hearing but the court heard he was unfit to be interviewed by police as he was in an acute psychiatric state and there are concerns he may harm himself.


He's due to next appear in court on May 21 for a committal mention.


Four-year-old Darcey Iris Freeman died after her father allegedly took her out of the family car and threw her 58 metres off Melbourne's West Gate bridge in front of her two brothers.


She miraculously survived the plunge into the Yarra river, but died from her terrible injuries in the Royal Children's Hospital several hours later.


Horrified witnesses on the busy gateway called triple zero around 9.10am (AEDT) on Thursday, and water police took just 10 minutes to reach Darcey and pull her from the water near the pumping station at Spotswood, not far from the bridge.


Paramedics then worked frantically for 50 minutes to stabilise her, before she was flown by helicopter to the hospital where doctors tried to perform a miracle. But Darcey was pronounced dead at 1.35pm.


Detective Inspector Steve Clark, from the Victoria Police homicide squad, told reporters it appeared no witnesses had an opportunity to intervene during the incident.


"It's all happened fairly quickly, as I understand it, nobody had the opportunity," Det Insp Clark said.


"He's got straight out of the car, taken the young girl and walked to the edge of the bridge."


The incident shocked police and paramedics called to the scene.

it is a terrible thing...but, I wish folks that get these crazy notions would throw themselves off the bridge first.

We had a woman throw two kids off an overpass here in Dallas last year. Something like a 22' fall into oncoming traffic. Why throw the kids? Why not take the plunge yourself and see if it's really a good idea?

I think it's their sick way of torturing the other parent.
