Animal Slaughter at Morayfield

Twenty ducks and chooks have been decapitated at a property at Morayfield.   Some had their wings removed. 

Neighbours also had one chook killed, and another six are still missing. 

Last year, in the same area, a horse at a neighbours property was belted across the head with a pole.  The horse is still traumatised.

It is suspected that locals carried out the killings.

Some comments people have left on Caboolture News Facebook site (Feb 5) are:
"Caboolture is scum
There is no future in Caboolture
I used to love living here, but in the last few years, I have had nothing but trouble.
It's usually pretty quiet here when the hoons aren't out.
I don't even take my kids to the parks - due to broken glass and needles. It's the norm here.
Used to be a nice town 20 years ago -not anymore. It's a shithole."

Of course there were some positive comments too:
"There are worst places to live.
It's not the place, it's the people living here that's the problem.
I've never seen anything bad happen.
I don't think it's as bad as the media make it out to be.
I think Caboolture has a lot to offer."

Caboolture News has put up two stories from people living at Caboolture:

The first story concerns a family who now hate Caboolture. The local park has been destroyed, kids have stolen their mail, egged their house and kids are doing burnouts every weekend. Every weekend there is a house on their street damaged. They constantly need to call the police.

The other story is from a woman who loves Caboolture.  Caboolture has everything she needs. She states she had heard about a lot of crime in the area - but she had never been a victim of it. She states she has never felt scared living in Caboolture.
