 The father of four children found shot dead along with their mother in rural Western Australia has pointed the finger of blame at their grandfather. 
  
 Aaron Cockman said he believed that Peter Miles, 61, had not "snapped" but had been "thinking this through for a long time". 
  
 The bodies of Miles, his wife Cynda, daughter Katrina and four grandchildren were found in Osmington on Friday. 
  
 Police have said they are not looking for any other suspects. 
  
 They have not confirmed the identity of the killer but say they believe him to be among the dead. 
  
 Three long firearms found at the property were licensed to Mr Miles, they say.

 Mr Cockman was estranged from Katrina Miles at the time of the killings. 
  
 He told reporters he did not feel angry about what had happened, just "tremendous sadness for my kids. I don't want anyone to feel angry". 
  
 Of Mr Miles, he said: "I still love who Peter was and... if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have Katrina, I wouldn't have any kids. So it's not some random guy off the street who's taken them away from me, he gave them to me and now he's taken them away". 
  
 Mr Cockman said he believed that Mr Miles had been facing some difficulties. His comments came amid local media reports - citing social media posts published earlier by Katrina - that the children had autism. 
  
 "Peter has been trying to hold it together for a long time. He's just thought... I can't live anymore, so this is it for me," he is quoted as saying in the Sydney Morning Herald. 
  
 He said on Sunday he took some solace from knowing his children had died peacefully in their sleep but added: "I've lost everything in my life."

 Police say they were alerted to the killings by a phone call from a man at the property early on Friday morning. 
  
 When they arrived, they found the bodies of Peter Miles, outside the property, Cynda, 58, in the house, and Katrina, 35, and her children, Taye, 13, Rylan, 12, Ayre, 10, and Kayden, eight, in a nearby converted shed they were living in. 
  
 The killings have rocked the tiny rural community of Osmington, which is about 20km (12 miles) from Margaret River, a popular tourist and wine-growing area. ||||| Margaret River murder-suicide: Seven people found dead at home near WA holiday town 
  
 Updated 
  
 Four children and three adults have been shot dead in a home near the West Australian town of Margaret River, in what is the nation's worst mass shooting since the 1996 Port Arthur massacre. 
  
 Key points: Police were tipped-off by a man connected to the property 
  
 Two adults were found outside the home, five bodies inside it, including four children 
  
 It is the worst mass shooting in Australia since Port Arthur in 1996 
  
 Police are treating the incident as a murder-suicide and have confirmed they are not looking for any suspects. 
  
 A friend of the family has confirmed to the ABC that Katrina Miles and her four children were among the seven victims. 
  
 The friend confirmed that Katrina's parents, whose names are listed on the property title as Peter and Cynda Miles, were also killed in the incident. 
  
 WA Police Commissioner Chris Dawson said all seven victims appeared to be residents of the property, which consists of an established house and a shed that had been converted to living quarters. 
  
 Two adults were found outside and the other five bodies were discovered inside the converted shed. 
  
 Police at the scene confirmed to the ABC that the family's next of kin had been notified, but they were yet to formally confirm the identities of the victims. 
  
 The mass shooting has the most fatalities since the Port Arthur massacre, in which 35 people died and another 23 were seriously injured. 
  
 Phone tip-off to police 
  
 Commissioner Dawson said officers were called to the rural property in Osmington, about 20 kilometres north-east of Margaret River, about 5:15am on Friday. 
  
 They found firearms at the crime scene. 
  
 "It appears that gunshot wounds are there, but I don't want to go further than that as two firearms have been located," Commissioner Dawson said. 
  
 Detectives from the Homicide Squad and Forensic Crime Scene Unit have travelled to the scene as part of the investigation.

 Commissioner Dawson announced the discovery at a media conference in Perth, describing the deaths as a "horrific incident". 
  
 He said a "male person" connected to the property had phoned police just after 5:00am, and officers arrived at the scene shortly afterwards. 
  
 "The loss of any life is tragic, but four children and three adults, this is a significant tragedy," he said. 
  
 "This will be a very large-scale and detailed investigation." 
  
 Commissioner Dawson said the phone call to police had been recorded but he would not reveal any more details about it. 
  
 Commissioner Dawson said police were not looking for a suspect. 
  
 "We don't have any information to raise further public concern about that element," he said. 
  
 Worst mass shooting in 20 years

 Mass shooting expert Glynn Greensmith said these incidents have become incredibly rare in Australia. 
  
 "We have been lucky that all forms of gun-related deaths have reduced dramatically since we took that step of having less guns [following the gun bans in the wake of Port Arthur]," said Mr Greensmith, who is studying a PhD in mass shootings at Edith Cowan University. 
  
 "But there are as many guns now in Australia as there were at the time of the Port Arthur massacre." 
  
 Victims were a 'much-loved family' 
  
 The ages of the children and adults have not been revealed. 
  
 State Member for Vasse Libby Mettam, whose seat incorporates Margaret River, said the deaths had already sent "significant shockwaves" through the town, and the community was hurting. 
  
 "This is a much-loved family, a big part of the Margaret River community," she said. 
  
 "Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone that will be affected by this tragedy, including those first responders." 
  
 Former local councillor Felicity Haynes, who lives on a neighbouring property, said the family involved were "caring neighbours". 
  
 "They were just such lovely people," she said. 
  
 "They were a very socially-aware family, doing their best to create a safe community, and that is why it is so shocking to think that could be destroyed so quickly." 
  
 Dr Haynes said the family had moved to the property about three years earlier to start a farm, having earlier lived in Margaret River. 
  
 Another nearby resident, Freya Cheffers, said she was in shock. 
  
 "Everybody's just devastated … I just prayed that I didn't know the family, as it turns out I kind of do." 
  
 Premier Mark McGowan described the incident as a "shocking tragedy". 
  
 "Clearly this is a distressing day for Western Australia," he said. 
  
 "It's a dark day for every family member or friend of the people involved." 
  
 Tragedy to have 'lasting impact' 
  
 Police said they were expecting to remain at the property for "an extended period of time". 
  
 "We are trying to locate other members of the family and friends," Commissioner Dawson said. 
  
 "This devastating tragedy will no doubt have a lasting impact on the families concerned, the whole community and in particular, the local communities in our South West." 
  
 Margaret River is a small town about 270 kilometres south of Perth, and the surrounding region — with a population of about 9,000 — is well-known for its beaches, wineries and craft breweries. 
  
 It is world-famous as a surfing destination, hosting an annual event of the World Surf League — the Margaret River Pro — and is a popular holiday spot among both West Australians and international tourists. 
  
 Augusta-Margaret River shire president Pamela Townshend said the tragedy would send shockwaves throughout the small community. 
  
 "It really hits hard, because everybody has links with that family in one way or another, so it will have a ripple effect right through our community," she said. 
  
 "The good thing about a small community is that we all mobilise to support people who are in terrible distress, and there will be a huge community response … to support people affected directly and indirectly by this. 
  
 "My heart goes out to them and we will certainly provide as much support as we possibly can." 
  
 Anyone with information regarding the deaths, or who saw or heard anything suspicious in the Osmington area this morning, has been urged to call Crime Stoppers.

The Australian grandfather who's believed to have gunned down his wife, daughter and grandchildren "didn't snap," according to the grieving father of the slain kids. He was "thinking this through for a long time," Aaron Cockman said, per BBC. Peter Miles, 61, reportedly killed six people in rural Western Australia before taking his own life. Despite the incredible blow, Cockman, who was estranged from Miles' daughter at the time of her death, told reporters he was grieving the loss of his children but still has love for Miles. "I still love who Peter was," he said. "If it wasn't for him I wouldn't have Katrina, I wouldn't have any kids. So it's not some random guy off the street who's taken them away from me, he gave them to me and now he's taken them away." Police arrived to the family's farm Friday to find Peter Miles and his wife, 58-year-old Cynda, dead. Katrina, 35; Taye, 13; Rylan, 12; Ayre, 10; and Kayden, 8, were all found dead nearby. Cockman's emotional press conference in the town of Margaret River on Sunday came after his family's tragic end made international headlines, in part because of Australia's oft trumpeted gun-control laws. This is the deadliest mass shooting in Australia since a lone gunman massacred 35 people in Tasmania 22 years ago, causing the country to introduce much tougher gun laws, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reports.
