I've signed and am sharing this petition because of the FACTS.

It is FACT that there was something in that sinkhole at Stansbury that Max McIntyre wanted to remain buried in the sinkhole for no-one to know about.

It is FACT, and reported 100% factually by myself in The Advertiser 5 years ago, that Max McIntyre stated he knew a lot about the Beaumont Children "killings" and it is FACT that Max pointed the finger at Tony Munro as being involved in events linked to the disappearance of the Beaumont Children, as well as crimes against other children.

It is FACT also that SAPOL openly claimed they had nothing to suspect Munro for crimes against children and that Munro was not on their radar for child sex crimes. It is FACT that they said that knowing that he had been convicted and jailed for a child sex crime. It is assumed they had little interest in chasing up the now convicted millionaire pedophile who, it is FACT, raped Max' son, Andrew, a month before the disappearance of the Beaumont children and continued to rape children for decades to come.

It is FACT that a diary used to record the movements and activities of Munro, Andrew and others as they went fishing, diving and camp all around the coastline in December 19965 and January 1966 features false dates, giving the appearance that all of those "fun" times, which included Munro raping children he had gained the trust of, took place well after the disappearance of the Beaumont children.

It is FACT that Max McIntyre gave myself and others permission to dig at the sinkhole site - no media, no cops... "Don't make a scene".

It is FACT that Max McIntyre ordered all his records be destroyed when he died... and FACT that fires burned across his property in the days immediately following his death.

And despite what some people continue to post on this petition "defending the honour of the deceased Max McIntyre", it is FACT that he was not a nice man. He died with mountains of knowledge of crimes committed against children, including his own son, and continued to speak with a number of people, collaborate with them, and reminisce with them about those crimes rather than expose them to police who he also corresponded with frequently.

I have almost 30 years experience as a journalist, more than a decade as a respected investigative journalist, newspaper editor and chief of staff. I always put FACTS first.

It is also FACT that we will never know what is in the Stansbury Sinkhole unless it is dug. So signing this petition is just another small effort in a long string of successful efforts I've made to get all of the FACTS available.
