There were meetings about the night of the cull, one in particular after Mitch's harvester was sabotaged. They decided to take action, and set the date. On the night, Esther arrived with her truck and its sling, Callum was there. and Neralie made sure Mandy was nice and drunk. Then she said, 'It's over Mandy, time to go,' and Elsie turned out the lights...most of the lights were out already. The shooters would have noticed the lights go out, Mandy left the bar at the same time as Beau. Shots rang out until dawn. Shortly after it was assumed Mandy left with Beau, (yabbies from the swimming hole) were off the menu. A year later they drained the swimming hole to fix the flood damage..and found the body.(less)
