The neighbor who made the grim discovery, Ben Scott-Sandvik, shared with the Herald Sun: “No one should ever have to witness what I encountered there.”

He added: “And nobody needs to live knowing that this sort of thing has happened to their families.”

Ross Judd, a 34-year-old homeless man, was arrested at Westall train station in Melbourne, Australia and charged with two counts of murder.

Cops dramatically swarmed the property the couple were in on Monday night after a neighbour heard screams and alerted police.

Several homes were still cordoned off on Adrienne Crescent in Mount Waverley on Wednesday as neighbours described their “shock” at what had happened.

Another neighbor, named Dimmi, who knew Athena’s mother well but was unaware that the victim lived nearby, expressed her shock over the tragic incident.

She said: “I didn’t even know she lives there. I’m Greek too, so I was so close to her mother, but didn’t see her for about 10 months.

“I’ve been here for 25 years, I walk along this street all the time but never saw her.

She mentioned: “I’m going to call her mom, I’m in shock right now. I don’t know much about the girl who passed, but I remember her from when she was little. They often visited my home.”

“She was a lovely girl. A very nice girl. I’m so, so sad.”

Another neighbour named Mary said she had also never seen Athena – despite living several doors up the road.

She revealed: “Everybody is shocked here. It’s amazing that it’s just happened so close.

“I’ve spoken to others in the street and they said they didn’t hear anything.”

Neighbours also received letters from local cops informing them of the harrowing ordeal.

Suspected killer Judd appeared at Melbourne Magistrates Court on Wednesday.

Grim footage of his arrest reportedly showed the suspect dressed in a blood-stained white T-shirt while being gripped by an officer.

The man appears on his knees before he is pulled to his feet on the station platform as another officer points at the ground.

Police allege the accused murderer was known to the couple, and that one of the victims lived in the unit.

He was heard in court reportedly saying: “I beg your pardon, yeah I’m all good.”

An alleged motive for remains unclear – but it has been speculated the case may be drug-related.

Chilling graffiti sprayed across the couple’s home read: “Karma is not a menu.”

The property walls were marked with vegan slogans like “meat is murder,” as well as ominous words such as “betrayal,” “unpredictable,” and “inevitable.”

The chaotic graffiti, applied in bright yellow, green, and black paint, also featured offensive and confrontational phrases like “U R Gay” and “Enough is Enough”.

A police spokesperson said: “Police are aware of graffiti on the property in Mount Waverley where the bodies of two people were located last night.

“Homicide Squad detectives will work to determine if the graffiti is relevant to the murder investigation.”

Local inspector Dean Thomas said the arrested man was known to the pair.

He said on Tuesday morning: “We believe that there is a link between our suspect and the address.”

According to an officer: “Police were contacted around 9:20 pm for a welfare check at the location, following reports of yelling heard from the premises.”

“A second call was then made that suggested it was perhaps more urgent than what the first call was and police arrived minutes later, and obviously they found the male and female inside the premises deceased.

“We believe he [the suspect] may be of no fixed place of abode.

“It appears to be targeted and our suspect is known to the address.”

Athena was five months pregnant when she died and was in a relationship with Andrew before they were allegedly murdered.

Athena’s aunt Patty Dilveridis told the Herald Sun her niece never thought she would be a mum.

“She was so looking forward to having a baby, because she was 39 [and] she never thought she could have one,” she said.

Meanwhile, her mum Petty, who was being looked after by Athena, was left “devastated”.
