Never have deliberately killed a snake. Ran over one late at night, by accident one though.
If they didn't actually see the snake eat a tawny Frogmouth I'd say it's not likely. Unless of course the carpet snake was inordinately large. Catching a tawny in the first place is unusual unless the tawny was extremely tepid and unwell... and it is a very large animal to swallow whole even for carpe snakes who can dislocate their jaws to accomodate.
