The mother of a child killed by his father in Lismore says the toddler should have been able to trust the man who took his life.
The mother of a two-year-old boy killed by his father in Lismore on Sunday says the toddler should have been able to trust the man who took his life, and she will love and miss the little boy forever.
“Rowan was a beautiful, joyful, and adored little boy. He had so many amazing qualities, and his short life was filled with rich and happy experiences,” Roome and her family said in the statement. Roome rang police and raised the alarm on Sunday when Harrison did not return the little boy at 4.30pm, as scheduled.
