00:00Today our thoughts are very much with Juliana, Kyle and Giselle and all those who knew and
00:08loved them. I cannot imagine the horror they must have felt in their last moments or how
00:13difficult these last few months have been for the family and friends. In all my years
00:20working on murder investigations, I have never known a case quite like this. Not only were
00:25three innocent lives taken in such brutal circumstances, but we then learned of Prosper's
00:31plans to carry out a shooting at a school, something which left our whole investigation
00:36team in shock and disbelief. We cannot ever begin to comprehend why someone would plan
00:43to kill innocent children and are so grateful to those arresting officers who helped prevent
00:48this from taking place. I would like to pay tribute to all the officers and staff who
00:54watched in this case, from the police, paramedics and scenes of crime officers to the detectives
01:00and support staff who pieced together the investigation. The dedication and professionalism
01:05displayed in order to get justice for the victims and their families has been overwhelming.
01:11I know it has taken a personal toll on many of you and I thank you for everything you
01:16did which has led to today's result. I would finally like to pay tribute to the family
01:22of Juliana, Kyle and Giselle. The pain they continue to experience having lost three members
01:28of their beloved family is unimaginable and they have shown great strength throughout
01:34the last few months. Thank you.
