Isolated in the Netherlands and waiting for the end of time
Police in the Netherlands have discovered a family of six people at a secluded farmhouse - they reportedly isolated themselves from the rest of the world for nine years "waiting for the end of time". A local resident alerted police to the bizarre situation when a young man came into his bar, seeking help. Karyn speaks with Dr Gerrit Breeuwsma, Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences at the University of Groningen less than an hour from where the family was found in the north of the Netherlands.
