We didn't hear any further details.

But the ABC did reveal last month that police were at that property to execute a warrant for his devices on which...

Hundreds of files containing child abuse material were later found.

Now, detectives discovered this child abuse material in the aftermath of the August shooting as they scoured Freeman's devices, but nothing was sort of revealed in the hearing about this.

So there was no official witness list spoken about during the hearing, but we would expect that we will hear from forensic experts, from Victoria Police.

We know that Freeman's wife, Amalia, was represented by lawyers during that hearing and also family members of the deceased may well also give evidence as well during that hearing.

Yeah, that's right.

So it was a tentative date that was set.

So it's not locked in.

By not locking in, they really have a bit of flexibility given the amount of evidence that will have to be gathered for this full coronial inquest.

But it is likely that it will be early next year that we do hear the full inquest.

Yeah, so it's for the community.

They were really ready to move on.

They wanted to sort of distance themselves from these shootings.

But for the family and friends, particularly the friends of Detective Thompson, who I've spent a lot of time with over the past year,

few months.

They say this won't bring him back but it will provide some closure.

It's particularly hard for them when something happens, an arrest is made or an inquest is on that it sort of all gets brought up again.

So they are really looking forward to things coming to an end finally.

One of his friends sort of said to me that hopefully Neil will finally be able to rest in peace and
