The suspected double murder-suicide in Mosman Park, Perth, on January 30, 2026, continues to generate questions as Western Australia Police maintain a tight lid on certain scene details. Investigators have confirmed no signs of forced entry to the Mott Close home—consistent with the incident’s classification as an internal family tragedy involving Jarrod Clune (50), Maiwenna Goasdoue (49), and their sons Leon (16) and Otis (14), plus three pets. However, one internal door was found in a position that doesn’t match the official sequence of events, a discrepancy police have not addressed publicly and one sources describe as something they won’t say out loud.

The Scene: No Forced Entry, But an Internal Anomaly

Police entered the residence around 8:15 a.m. after a carer arrived for a scheduled visit, discovered the visible warning note (“don’t enter, call police”), and alerted authorities. The absence of forced entry—doors locked or secured as normal, no broken windows or damage to external access points—supports the conclusion that the events were carried out by family members without external involvement. This aligns with the premeditated nature suggested by multiple notes, toxicology results, and other evidence.

Yet during forensic sweeps, officers noted an internal door (likely within the home—possibly a bedroom, bathroom, or hallway door) in an unexpected state: ajar when it should have been closed, closed when expected open, or positioned in a way inconsistent with the reconstructed timeline of movements and actions. This detail, while minor on the surface, has raised quiet concerns in investigative circles because:

It could imply a deviation in the sequence—someone moving through the house differently than anticipated, an interruption, or an overlooked action in the final moments.
In non-violent, planned family tragedies, scene consistency is crucial for confirming intent and method; any mismatch prompts extra scrutiny to rule out variables like panic, second thoughts, or unseen factors.
Police have not commented on this anomaly in press briefings or releases, fueling speculation that it either remains under analysis (e.g., via CCTV correlations, witness re-interviews, or forensics) or is deemed non-dispositive to the overall determination.

The reluctance to discuss it publicly fits standard protocol in sensitive cases: avoid speculation, protect the coronial process, and prevent misinterpretation amid community grief. No evidence suggests third-party involvement or foul play beyond the suspected murder-suicide.

Timeline and Evidence Recap

Key confirmed elements include:

No weapons or signs of struggle/violence.
Two notes: Visible external warning; hidden internal one detailing rationale, planning, and financial wishes (indicating the parents acted together).
Toxicology results available but with one specific finding requiring further testing (unexplained publicly).
Unusual nighttime sound captured on nearby CCTV ~30 minutes before estimated time.
Brief, distressed last exchange with a support worker (Maiwenna “couldn’t calm down” in a two-minute call, followed by a sealed message).
Items in the boys’ room suggesting advance preparation, despite their “normal” appearance that week.
Caregiver strain from NDIS limitations, funding cuts, and intensive support needs for the boys’ severe autism.

The internal door position adds to this mosaic of subtle inconsistencies that investigators are piecing together without public disclosure.

Community and Systemic Impact

The affluent, quiet suburb remains in shock. Tributes to Leon and Otis highlight their cheerfulness and the parents’ devotion amid overwhelming challenges. Carers like Maddie Page have spoken of feeling “failed” by support systems, amplifying calls for NDIS reform and better mental health resources for high-needs families.

Premier Roger Cook labeled it an “unimaginable tragedy,” urging compassion and improved services. The case underscores how private despair can escalate invisibly, even in supportive communities.

Police continue their thorough investigation with no ongoing risk. Anyone with information should contact WA Police. Support is available via Lifeline Australia (13 11 14) for those affected by caregiving burdens, grief, or mental health concerns.
