Why a NSW grazier contemplating suicide allegedly used his partner s phone to research how to get away with murder and made several future plans for his farm has been heard by a jury.
Natasha Beth Darcy told detectives during her third police interview in November 2017 that she regularly deleted her internet search history because the naughty stuff her partner Mathew Dunbar looked up.
She was then asked by the officers if she seriously believed they would care about pornography after his death.
Police were investigating suspicious circumstances including a google search whereby Ms Darcy questioned what gas would show up in an autopsy, on the day of her partner s death
âMatt came out feeling pretty bad,â she said.
They then made various purchases, including a gas bottle. âHe did tell me we have to pick up the bottle of gas for the welder,â Darcy said.
Back at home when she and others were dealing with some lambs âhe was almost in tears because he couldnât helpâ due to his leg. He said he was concerned he would have to sell the property but she told him she could continue to work under his instructions and no decision had to be made yet.
Dunbar asked if she could sleep on the lounge that night, which she did to give him privacy after his leg had been kicked in bed the previous night, Darcy told police.
