Chilling footage of Qld police killers Gareth and Stacey Train emerges online

A chilling video has emerged appearing to show Gareth and Stacey Train admitting to the sickening murder of two Qld police officers.

Haunting footage of Stacey and Gareth Train has emerged online.

A chilling video recorded by Queensland cop killers Gareth and Stacey Train on the night of the deadly ambush has emerged online.

Stacey, her husband Gareth and brother-in-law Nathaniel (who is also her ex-husband), died during a confrontation with specialist officers on Monday night in rural Queensland.

They were reportedly laying in wait in the bushes at the isolated Wieambilla property as four police officers approached their home.

The trio killed Constables Rachel McCrow, 29, and Matthew Arnold, 26, “execution-style”, along with their neighbour Alan Dare.

Now, it appears Stacey and Gareth filmed and uploaded a disturbing video message at some point on Monday evening, appearing to admit to the cold-blooded killings.

“They came to kill us and we killed them,” Gareth says, shrouded in darkness with his wife at his side.

“If you don’t defend yourself against these devils and demons you’re a coward.”

The footage was shared on a now-deleted YouTube account.

Stacey then speaks up, saying: “We will see you when you get home”.

“We’ll see you at home Don,” Gareth says. It’s unclear who he is referring to.

“Love you,” Stacey adds.

The footage was uploaded to a now-deleted YouTube channel “Mrs Yugi Girawil”, which only had two subscribers and 10 videos.

The pair in the video refer to themselves as Daniel and Jane, the middle names of Gareth and Stacey.

The video was published at 7.39pm on Monday, Crikey reports, three hours after the police officers were gunned down as they walked up the driveway towards the remote house.

In the video, Gareth and Tracey talk in the past tense, saying they had already “killed them”, so it likely the video was filmed after the trio had already murdered the two police officers and their neighbour.

The pair, along with Nathaniel, were eventually shot dead shortly after 10.30pm by specialist police after a tense siege.

Nathaniel Train is not seen in the video, which was uploaded under the title “Don’t be afraid”.

Other videos uploaded to the YouTube account are titled “Prepare for battle and be strangers on the earth”, “Bullyman”, “Cowardice” and “Daniel’s message to the ‘bad boys’”.

The account commented on one of its own videos earlier on Monday, hinting at the violence that was about to unfold.

“After dealing with covert agents and tactics for sometime now, Daniel believes that should they choose to cross the rubicon with public state actors our Father is giving us a clear sign. Monsters and their heads are soon parted,” the comment said.

A Queensland Police spokesperson told news.com.au that the Ethical Standards Command were continuing to lead a major investigation into the incident.

“This is a complex and thorough Coronial Investigation overviewed by the Crime and Corruption Commission and will be reported to the State Coroner,” the spokesperson said.

“Family Liaison Officers have been appointed and are working closely with families involved in this tragedy.

“While the matter is currently being investigated, and respecting the sensitivities of the families involved, it would be inappropriate for the QPS to provide further comment at this time.”

Another video, uploaded on November 18, 2022 and titled “Help wanted”, a woman that sounds like Stacey, reads out a fictional “job listing”.

“Help wanted, servants of the living God. Duties include, love and obey our heavenly father with all your heart, mind and soul. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” the woman says.

“Keep yourself from being corrupted by the beast system. Defend the cause of the needing and oppressed.”

The woman calls on applicants to “resist evil” and do what is right “no matter what the consequences”.

“Remuneration: none. In fact, this job may cost you everything you have. You will be hated and persecuted,” she says.

“Lovers of lies and delusion need not apply.”

In another eerie clip, an American man who claimed to be close friends with the cop killers claimed to have spoken with them after the deadly ambush.

“I received a message from my brother Daniel (Gareth) and my sister Jane (Stacey) in Queensland, Australia, that the devils came for them – to kill them, and they had to kill the devils themselves and are now on the run,’ the man said.

“It breaks my heart that there’s nothing I can do to help them.

“These are a people that are not armed as we are in America. And here, my brave brother and sister, a son and daughter of the most high, have done exactly as they are supposed to do.

“We are free people, we are owned by no one … Daniel, Jane, if there is any way possible that you are receiving this comm (communication), I am so sorry that I’m not there to fight with you.

“If you’re already home – our heavenly home, hold a place for us, we’ll be joining you soon enough.”

Disturbing details of killer’s lives

On Thursday, disturbing new details were brought to light about the lives of the Train trio, with people who knew the killers exposing strange and unsettling claims about their past.

All three had previously worked for the Queensland Department of Education and moved between different rural towns to work in a number of regional schools.

In 2011, Gareth and Stacy moved to the town of Camooweal in far northwest Queensland, just a few kilometres from the Northern Territory border, according to the ABC.

It wasn’t long before people in the town started noticing something was amiss with the couple.

One local resident, who did not wished to be named, told the ABC that Gareth would often bring his dogs to the local swimming hole where kids liked to hang out and hunt wild pigs.

“We would often find the gutted carcasses of pigs there. Sometimes we would see Gareth with his knives running around with the dogs chasing the pigs,’’ he said.

“We would hear the boars screaming as he gutted them.”

The Trains’ house also backed on to the local school, which the resident attended at the time.

He said that Gareth would take the pigs and butcher them in his backyard, resulting in “blood and offal” running directly on to the school oval.

“There would be a smell of offal and blood running on to the footy field,” he said.

Another resident, Minnie Kenna, who worked at the school at the time, told the ABC she had witnessed Gareth “dragging” Stacey by her hair up the stairs and into their house.

“It’s a high house and he was just dragging. I thought, ‘It’s none of my business,’ and I didn’t like to interfere so I didn’t say anything,” she said.
