> Molly Ticehurst’s former partner, Daniel Billings, has been sentenced to 28 years in prison, with a 20-year non-parole period, for killing her at her Forbes home. He pleaded guilty to stabbing her 15 times. The judge found the attack was driven by retaliation and extreme hatred after Ticehurst reported sexual assault allegations to police.
