The five children you will meet are five amazing heroes who risked their lives to save their mother's life from an armed criminal which makes the story even more tragic that the armed criminal was the father of them all know the shocking statistics of one woman.💓
Is killed by his partner every week in Australia but somehow it takes the shocking personal news to bring home a complete fear
this national catastrophe is often the story told by women in the news.
Survival and resilience we have never heard of children silent victims of domestic violence but tonight the story from the eyes of five amazingly brave children is a case unlike.
Any other face-to-face with their father armed with a shotgun when their mother was about to die five children showing courage and ingenuity beyond their age to save their mother's life.
If it were not for the courage of these five little children, they would not be a mother to visit all who know some of the pressures all made to Rachel Each Moore in his own way is his hero because together they saved his lungs Jaden 14 Cameron 12 Kaylee 10-year-old and Zayn four-year-old and her two-year-old sister Samantha knows.
I think so if you just did it said to Cameron get her ambulance I'm gonna die we thought of wipes and hospitals his first died in Italy five times and died five times.
They bring him back I think a lot of miracles happened that night
I am so proud of them that you are so amazing on the night of April 11 last year Darrell Fields has one thing in mind for the murder of his ex-partner and the mother of his children Rachel Moore no doubt.
I was hunted dead. Darrell came in the door with a gun and was going to call me and shoot past a man who said he loved him.
I was the most scared person I have ever had in my life. His little children saw all that you did not do. and my brother took the reins to save their mother's life and where did he get the strength to do that as a body.
I don't know how to find the inner strength to overcome domestic violence in a way you have never seen before. Rachel wants to talk about her horrible family because as domestic violence is so prevalent their issue can be anyone at that moment. I thought it would happen to you.
He was going to be shot I knew I had to take a shot and I knew it had to be me because I didn’t want him around my kids as happened to many the beginning was very different Rachel says.
She fell in love with a gentle patient and for seven years they were happy listening to me about the things I was upset about and she talked to me about it and she is a really loving person and no one can tell you otherwise but three years ago Darrell no relationship.
Rachel, he was arrested when he brutally assaulted her as a victim of domestic violence in a previous relationship Rachel threw Daryl out I saw all the kids face to face and I just promised I would never promise you that it would not be the next two years apart. it was
peaceful.
Rachel was raising her young family on her own until one night something broke inside Darrell and she drove home, and the TV for them was about to start a bath and all that and that's what I heard her know she was the one who came in.
Driveway thinks what made him attack that night Rachel is rushing her children to a room in the horrible world of a woman who has been through it.
Domestic violence before he knew what was coming or at least thought he had knowledge of the attack I knew it was going to be worse than keeping it in my head, I knew because it always happened.
Too bad and I knew it was going to be bad but I didn't expect him to have a gun in the wrong place I would have believed he would have a gun wrapped around the room with their mother Jayden Cameron Kaylee Zayn and Samantha.
We heard him walk through the house as if we could hear his feet stepping on the ground as if we could hear him walking in it it was really scary he just looked at me like a mentally ill person as if he was out of breath.
He was not like her dark eyes Darryl was dead drunk and a murderer stood in the doorway a bit and then put the gun um and he had that intention on mom.
For a moment I remember saying God was on my mind and we were all like screaming and stuff and telling him not to shoot and put that on.
But he did anyway he lost his temper and turned his shotgun on himself when apprehended by a police officer on the porch of the house where the shootings took place.
He just walked away I saw him and he wanted to kill me he wanted to die and he didn't waste any time he just pulled her and shot my mother and destroyed her back Darryl's gun hit Rachel breaking her left arm I just remember putting my hands up.
Down I tried to push but no one knew he had been hit in the arm not really eh and you know I felt like I was punched and I couldn't even work he was slipping but now I know he was there but I'm in my blood.
Just imagine the horror that was in the room that night but instead of being paralyzed by their fears Rachael's five children went into action as it was thought to be saving their mother's life and without paying attention to their safety they entered in an unusual way.
The little army thought that was what I thought might be the end of the whole family as well as my brothers and sisters as maybe also to have those thoughts come to your mind what was what I think my body just decided.
I would do my best to stop this or what I should have done you ended up doing well when the gun pointed at my mom I ran forward and Elbert himself and I released Camryn was the first heroic act that night as Jarrell went to reload Cameron and disarmed him as he began to grow.
A man twice his size but there is little to know about these little ones
heroes I don't want to go to a big class, I want to stay here with mine
friends.
Cameron's older brother Jaden has shared a room with sin and his sister Kaylee is a child actor and as part of their lessons to imitates Rachael's eldest son who has also been trained in choreography and karate.
You know to disarm him we fight choreography courses for our working students and I think from then on I was taught two weeks ago I think I'm sure you never thought.
You would have to do it in real life you knew to take out the weapons Errol Cameron could have predicted he could be thrown
away from the gun but inside Darryl was still trying to kill Rachel did not just count.
Jayden approached her and grabbed her by the leg and pulled her across the room and then sat on top of her and started strangling her as if I was trying to get her eyes out and just jumped on her back.
And I started choking him and I hit him a few times thinking I and Cameron ran in after hiding the gun and hit him on the side of the head and he fell on me so I couldn't get out of anything.
Because it's so hard so I just put him in the middle of this mess four-year-old Zane knows he has to protect his little sister from the violence he took two-year-old Samantha and hid her.
Built under the bed that breaks my heart why that breaks your heart so little that he should have done that we knew very little of the great war the children were facing.
He is under the idea I had just shot once and the next thing I remember is that he pulled my eyes out obviously and filled their hands and then stopped and that’s what I remember until my daughter raised my arm and I just remembered what she was.
I feel like when she carried me out and hid me now it's time for Kylie to make this ten-year-old child pull the amazing physical and mental strength that moves her mother to a safe place somehow you know she should stop him too.
Bleeding as well as bandages her broken arm of arms I removed her away from her so that she could stand you went back to him that the boys could stop him and you know your mother was badly injured mm-hmm what was it like you were bending your arm trying to help him if.
He could see that all the blood was disgusting and horrible
I said he was going to die before the ambulance arrived because it took them a long time to call them. my mother was shot and I handed it to Jayden.
Because I knew he was going to do something so he went in and told him so he got everyone behind that bad phone call to the police.
all Rachel and the children could do was wait and trust Daryl Fields.
He will not attack again and hopefully, Rachel can survive her bloodshed from time to time Cameron who was desperate ran down the street looking for the police looking for anyone who could help.
The wind is pushing my hands down the driveway I keep running back up to look at my mom I go down and find them and I say, Danny Danny came down here with my mom down there shot I don't worry I disarmed him with guns under the balcony.
It's all safe to go up and say oh we need to make procedure calls stuff like that they say Anthony I and stuff were that hard when you know your mother needed help so.
Quickly and so I just wanted to run back there and just keep him like it was hard for me to sit down when I knew my mom was in trouble for what she was doing and tried to convince them to let you go yes I really just thought they would negotiate and I could go back to the scene but it was the last time I saw her.
I don't know what I would have done if you thought you were the one who made me fall in love with you. But I think God they were there I thank God for my children for saving my life.
Rachel lost 2/3 of her blood when she was rushed to the hospital and almost lost her arm so the news was to you, Airy.
For the most part, it was nothing but oh my gosh I won't look good on how to hold my daughter ho am I'm going to run a house with all the kids and I went up just three weeks after I was shot and after that. 15 long-term difficult surgery to keep her arm still pumping Rachel still has the spirit to fight her children.
Who clearly needs to expect your hand to be fully utilized by doctors saying I will get this but I know I will get it more than it is unclear what Rachel is too kids have had to be patient and while they say it gets better yes.
They are still trying to understand how this act of violence can come from a person who is destined to love the person he or she loves the most.
Jenny yeah when she says it comes out that means a little yeah
yeah that's oxide cuz he was a good dad um before yeah yeah D gauntlet build stuff in the backyard but I can't learn you that now yeah it's hard after all he used to take us to places and he was fun and sweet. but while dating.
It hurt, yes you never thought you could do this, no guys ok I got you a tissue and stuff.
Water will make you feel better I think you can now go older than they should be the one thing I always wished the kids to be as young as long as possible they were taken out of them and took it.
Everything and what is in its place yes it happens every night we all never lost our father and lost the men they thought.
He was strong and he always looked at them how he described that conflict how he described the person he loved being able to make that jealous jealousy and that alcohol fuels the best violence I don't know how to explain because I don't know.
How do you not know yet this small family can easily live to know that Daryl Field is in jail he has pleaded guilty to attempted murder and if convicted he is expected to serve a long time.
Although it may be difficult to reconcile how dangerous his father may be, these young heroes have also learned about the amazing courage they have and the power they have to end domestic violence.
no one would part.
Do you think your mother would be alive if you were not in the house that night maybe not because she would have been able to get a second shot or she would have just shot her and she is dead now what is it like to know that your life is a mother and I feel fine and done I don't think I saved her life?
