And as you mentioned, that was including that in June of last year, police received a disclosure in respect to an alleged sexual assault involving a child under the age of 16, as well as an attempt to involve a child in the production of child abuse material.

So the purpose of that search warrant was to find and seize any electronic devices that were to be interrogated for the potential presence of child abuse material.

And while they were there, they also planned to arrest and interview Freeman as part of that investigation.

Yeah, so police arrive at Rayner Track that the property is on in a convoy.

Now, again, for context, I've been up that track.

It's quite narrow and the property sits at the very end of the track and the driveway has an electronic gate.

Now, when those police officers have arrived, that gate was locked.

So a decision was made for five of the officers to go into the property on foot and

while another three took a police vehicle and they accessed the property via a nearby lane.

Two other police stayed with the car at the front of the driveway at the gate.

Now, as the five officers made their way to that bus where the Freemans were living, they saw his wife, Amalia.

She went back into the annex.

And then the police have followed her and they've knocked on the bus door to say why they were there.

And at that point, they could see Freeman, his wife, and they could also hear a young child in the bus.

Yeah, that's right.

So they're living on the property of Andrew Swift.

They'd been there for several years.

And you're correct.

Once police arrived there, Andrew Swift comes down to the bus and he actually says to the police that they were trespassing on private property.

And he starts filming on his phone.
