A real estate agent who unknowingly showed John Edwards through his estranged daughter\u2019s open house said he had a \u201cgut feeling\u201d about a suspicious pair who claimed to be father and son.<\/p>\n

The chilling incident occurred in 2011 after Edwards used private investigators to track his adult daughter down and then stalked her, leading her to apply for an apprehended violence order.<\/p>\n

Seven years later, Edwards shot dead his two youngest children, Jack, 15, and Jennifer, 13, before killing himself on July 5, 2018. Their mother, Olga, took her own life five months later.<\/p>\n

An inquest last year probed how Edwards was able to get a gun licence despite a 24-year recorded history of domestic violence inflicted on his seven former partners and 10 children.<\/p>\n

Among them is JC, who cannot be named by court order and had not seen her father in 15 years when he began to stalk her in 2011.<\/p>\n

The year before, Edwards hired Sydney Private Investigations to track JC down, and in November 2010 the agency sent him details about JC and her husband, including their address.<\/p>\n

Real estate agent Steven Kourdis was working for North Sydney agency McConnell Bourn in May 2011 when JC\u2019s house came across his desk for sale.<\/p>\n
