NSW government seeking urgent advice to reform bail laws for domestic violence offences
The NSW government is seeking urgent advice to determine if reform to bail laws for domestic violence is needed, Premier Chris Minns has said.
Speaking at a press conference today, Minns said “the terrible scourge of domestic violence leaves a deep and lasting impact, and the death of these women often at the hands of a family member is escalating and horrifying to the people of New South Wales”.
The announcement comes after the death of Molly Ticehurst, who was allegedly killed by her ex-partner Daniel Billings while he was out on bail.
More to come.
