So I'm riot, I'm thirty two. Mum lives on the

grandfather was that type of person that you could always call.

very proud family man. We didn't know at the time
how wealthy actually.

Was until now. Greed was believed to be behind the
murder of Robert Widwell in August last year. The killer
his own granddaughter, Brittany Dwyer.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Hundreds of slices all over her left leg. She wasn't
afraid to let you know what she thought like she
had no friends so turned up to that age. It's
really sad. It was just all family friends.

This was a premeditated, planned, sociopathic style killing.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
I found out that they would go to a lot
of strip shows together. Came out in letters that you know,
I think they were in there for different reasons other
than just to enjoy a show, talking about cutting people's
throats and blood. And so they walked.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
To Mum, I am so sorry that it has been
so long since I wrote you the last letter. I'm
so sorry that I couldn't be the daughter you and
Dad deserved to have. I did not mean to live
this life, or to continue lying to both of you
about having a job, a house, and committing a crime
to live. I love you, Mum, Brittany
