Another one in FNQ that isn’t getting much media coverage too https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/article/2024/jun/29/man-allegedly-stabbed-woman-to-death-before-attempting-carjack-on-major-queensland-highway
Im sure both of these will go on a list somewhere and we’ll continue to ask “what can we do?”
This is the best summary I could come up with:
NSW Police will investigate why it took almost an hour to respond to a concern for welfare call where a woman was allegedly murdered by her domestic partner in the state's north on Saturday morning.
Police said a concern for welfare call was made to a home on Johnston Street, Casino shortly after 1:30am.
Northern Region Assistant Commissioner Peter McKenna said the call was acknowledged by a radio operator almost an hour later at 2:25am, with officers attending the home two minutes after they were notified.
Assistant Commissioner Mr McKenna said when officers arrived they found a woman, believed to be in her 40s, with "obvious injuries to her head" after an apparent physical assault.
Assistant Commissioner McKenna said domestic violence is something police put "at the top of our priority list".
Police, including forensic investigation units, have established a crime scene at the house in Casino, which is located approximately 30 kilometres west of Lismore.
