Damien Shaw: CCTV captures sons screams and daughter’s final pleas before father murders them in Bali villa

Chilling final moments captured on home security cameras have laid bare the harrowing sequence of events leading up to the killing of two young children by their father in Bali.

Police on Tuesday said domestic CCTV footage had recorded the terrifying screams of Damien John Shaw’s six-year-old son, Archie, before his four-year-old daughter, Laura, fled the room.

Laura could be heard crying out that she loved her father as she was chased through the house before being caught and allegedly suffocated to death by him.

Denpasar Chief Police Leonardo D Simatupang told media in Bali Mr Shaw also removed a camera in an attempt to obscure the unfolding tragedy.

“The husband intentionally took down the CCTV camera in the living room,” Mr Simatupang said.

“There was initially the sound of a disturbance. It was the sound of the boy screaming.

“After that, the daughter was running away and being chased by her father. The husband caught the child and took her back into the room.

“The daughter was repeatedly saying, ‘I love you, Daddy. I love you, Daddy’.

“Perhaps she was frightened because she may have seen her older brother being harmed by his father earlier.”

Investigators confirmed reports the couple were going through marital issues dating back four years.
