On July 8th, 1970 John Wallis heard a gunshot from inside the shearing shed on the family farm. He ran to investigate and found his father dead from a gunshot wound.

Although some questions remain even after nearly 40 years, the Coroner stated that the death of Jack Wallis was suicide.

"There is no doubt in my mind that my father’s death on July 8, 1970, was the result and culmination of many years of hardship inflicted on him and his family by the leaders of the “Exclusive Brethren cult, and this was my father's way of saying, “enough is enough, you are not going to hurt me any more”."
