A family of four was found dead inside their Mosman Park home, leading police to investigate a suspected double murder-suicide.

Ms. Goasdoue had previously described her sons as having severe autism, and friends indicated the couple faced immense pressure and isolation due to the challenges of finding adequate care and support for their children.
