The death certificate that was held up by Michael Chamberlain read, “The cause of her death was as the result of being attacked and taken by a dingo,” which approved that his daughter had died after a dingo attack and said that family could now put their daughter’s spirit to rest.
It was the night of August 17, 1980 when Azaria’s mother Lindy Chamberlain cried out that a dingo had taken her baby.
The fourth post-mortem into Azaria’s death was given a record of 14 serious dingo attacks on humans since 1986 on Fraser Island, NSW and Victoria. Three of them were fatal including 9-year-old Clinton Gage and 2-year-old girls.
Yesterday, Northern Territory Coroner Elizabeth Morris agreed on Lindy Chamberlain’s statement that a dingo took away her 9-week-old girl from their tent at Uluru.
In the Darwin Magistrate’s Court Morris handed down the official decree that a dingo had snatched the baby from her basinet in the Chamberlain’s tent at night.
Coroner Morris said, “I am satisfied that the evidence is sufficiently adequate, clear, cogent and exact … that what occurred on August 17, 1980, was that shortly after Mrs. Chamberlain placed Azaria in the tent, a dingo or dingoes entered the tent, took Azaria and carried and dragged her from the area.”
She emotionally apologized to Mrs. Chamberlain-Creighton, her ex-husband Michael and their families, asking them to accept her sincere sympathy and that she was very sorry for their loss. She said “Dr and Mrs. Chamberlain, Aidan and your extended families, please accept my sincere sympathy over the death of your special and loved daughter and sister, Azaria.”
