Police believe Rogers stabbed Mr Way and Ms Simpson to death before abducting Kyla and taking her to northern NSW, where they died together from carbon monoxide poisoning in his car.

Kyla's toddler brother was staying with his grandparents.

Acting superintendent Tim Trezise said a dispute over the custody of the children was at the centre of the tragedy.

"Information we have received in interviewing a number of witnesses is that Mr Rogers understandably was upset and concerned about not having access to his children," he told ABC Radio.

He said the absence of a suicide note had complicated the investigation.

Queensland's coroner will lead the investigation into the death of Kyla Rogers in the first case referred to the new family and domestic violence death review unit.
