In 2010, I posted about the Palmerville Track and Palmerville Station having a long
history of disputes and as I mentioned at the time, "so to avoid disappointment,
I would not recommend setting off there as one may be turned back."

Palmerville Station lays directly along the eclipse centerline.
Now there appears to be a new chapter in the colorful saga of disputes with the
husband and wife Palmerville Station owners being arrested two days ago and charged
with "with one count each of murder and improper conduct with a corpse."

The accused pair are due to appear in the Cairns Magistrates' Court this morning.
