28岁儿童教育工作者莫莉·蒂斯赫斯特（Molly Ticehurst）于2024年4月22日凌晨在澳大利亚新南威尔士州福布斯市被前男友丹尼尔·比林斯（Daniel Billings）刺死，共遭刺捅15刀，整个过程耗时不足1分钟1。比林斯现年31岁，曾因多项强奸罪和家暴指控被控，但在被捕次日即获得保释1。经过18个月的法律谈判，比林斯于2025年11月对谋杀罪认罪1。
主审法官娜塔莉·亚当斯（Natalie Adams）表示，不预期对被告寻求终身监禁1。法官表示将考虑针对被告的性侵指控作为量刑因素1。量刑听证会将从周四开始进行，为期两天，在橙城法院举行，预计判决将于2025年9月作出1。比林斯曾表述"如果我要坐牢，我不妨直接去犯罪"的言论1。该案引发了澳大利亚全国性别暴力问题的广泛关注1。
Daniel Billings, 31, pleaded guilty to murdering Molly Ticehurst, a 28-year-old early childhood educator, who was stabbed to death in the early hours of April 22, 2024, in Forbes, New South Wales 1. The killing occurred after Billings broke into Ticehurst's bedroom and inflicted 15 stab wounds in less than a minute 1.
Billings had previously faced multiple rape and domestic violence charges, but was released on bail the day after those allegations surfaced 1. Following 18 months of legal negotiations, he entered a guilty plea to murder in November 2025 1. Judge Natalie Adams has signaled that she does not anticipate imposing a life sentence 1. At the time of his arrest, Billings stated: "If I'm going to do the time, I may as well do the crime" 1.
A two-day sentencing hearing commenced at Orange Court, with judgment expected in September 2025 1. While declining to pursue a life term, the judge indicated that sexual assault allegations against Billings will be considered as a factor in determining his sentence 1.
