28岁的澳大利亚女性莫莉·蒂斯赫斯特于2024年4月22日在新南威尔士州福布斯市的住所遭前男友丹尼尔·比林斯杀害2。比林斯潜入蒂斯赫斯特的家中,用猎刀将其刺伤十多次致死2。在法院的判决听证会上,蒂斯赫斯特的父亲托尼·蒂斯赫斯特面对面见到女儿的凶手,向其表达了深切的悲痛与控诉12。
案件背景显示,比林斯在作案前已有暴力倾向记录2。他曾在数周前性侵蒂斯赫斯特、用锤子杀死其小狗,并威胁称"我会在午夜来……我会杀了你,这是我最后的努力。警察阻止不了我。我会比他们来得更快"2。尽管有这些威胁和犯罪行为,比林斯仍被法院保释2。
在法庭听证会上,托尼·蒂斯赫斯特向比林斯表达希望"女儿的尖叫声永远困扰你"1。他也表示"你永远是我的女儿……我会用余生去哀悼你"2。蒂斯赫斯特的儿子在法庭上表述:"我真的很想念我的妈妈,因为我想念和她一起去度假、一起修剪草坪,还有在她房间里一起看《冰河世纪》"2。这桩案件引发了名为"莫莉法案"(Molly's Law)的保释改革立法2。
Molly Ticehurst, a 28-year-old Australian woman, was killed by her former partner Daniel Billings in Forbes, New South Wales on April 22, 2024.2 Billings, 31, broke into her home and stabbed her more than a dozen times with a hunting knife.2 The attack occurred despite Billings having been released on bail following previous incidents, including sexually assaulting Ticehurst, killing her small dog with a hammer, and threatening to murder her at midnight.2 Before the attack, Billings warned: "I will come in the middle of the night … I will get to you if that is the last thing I do. The police won't stop me. I will get to you quicker than they will."2
During sentencing proceedings, Ticehurst's father Tony faced his daughter's killer and delivered an emotional victim statement.1 He told Billings that he hoped Molly's screams would haunt him forever.1 Tony also stated "When she died, part of me died with her" and addressed his daughter directly, saying "You will always be my girl ... I will grieve you for the rest of my life."2 Molly's son testified about missing everyday moments with his mother, saying: "I really miss my mum because I miss going on holidays and mowing the lawn with her and watching Ice Age in her room."2
The case has prompted legislative reform efforts, with proposals for "Molly's Law" to strengthen bail conditions for accused domestic violence offenders.2 The sentencing hearing extended over two days as the court heard from multiple family members about the impact of the killing.2
