Answers due over Molly's murder with no appeal lodged

Key points

• NSW prosecutors will not challenge the 28-year maximum sentence handed to Daniel Billings for murdering Molly Ticehurst. The decision was made under prosecution guidelines.
• Justice Natalie Adams set a non-parole period of 20 years, finding Billings killed his former girlfriend out of revenge and extreme hatred after she reported sexual assault allegations to police. Ticehurst was stabbed 15 times in Forbes in April 2024.
• Her mother, Kate Shaw, has urged Premier Chris Minns to release a government report into Ticehurst's contact with the Staying Home Leaving Violence scheme. Billings will be 49 when he is eligible for parole.
