Dad finds children dead in bathtub (Canada)
His greatest fear was that his estranged wife would take his children from their home in a tiny, snowy town in Canada, and run away to Australia.
So scared was he of losing them, he'd taken their passports and hidden them away.
The effort was in vain: Curtis McConnell, 31, of Millet, near Edmonton in Alberta, on Tuesday entered the house he once shared with his infant children to find something so much worse.
According to local reports, his wife, Allyson Louise McConnell, formerly of Gosford on the NSW central coast, had not taken the children.
She had allegedly drowned them in the bathtub and left their bodies in the water, for him to find.
Mr McConnell pulled the children - Connor, 2, and Jayden, 10 months - from the tub.
