The devastated father of a four-year-old Gold Coast boy recalled how his son told him "I love you, I miss you" the night before he was allegedly killed by his mother and stepfather. Tyrell Cobb's father Jason Cobb told a committal hearing at Brisbane Magistrates Court he used to phone his little boy every evening to say goodnight to him. He said during a previous visit Tyrell told him his stepfather Matthew Scown had "slapped him on the head". Allan told Strbak during one conversation "you've lied half your life, you know how to lie". He told the court on Thursday that it was a "joke" and he couldn't recall all the phone calls.
