A woman in Western Australia changes her plea to guilty during her murder trial after evidence presented in court includes statements made in prison. Multiple outlets report that the court hears she admitted stabbing her ex-partner, with the information coming through a prison relationship and later being provided to the jury.
Reports say the developments occur mid-trial, shortly after an ex-prison lover gives evidence about what was allegedly said, including a jail-cell confession described as occurring during “pillow talk.” In related coverage, the court also plays an admission captured while police listen through a hidden microphone, with reporting describing the accused as a mother and the victim as her ex-girlfriend or ex-lover.
Outlets differ slightly in phrasing, including whether the plea change is described as immediately following the ex-lover’s testimony or connected to the playing of the jail recording. However, they consistently describe the same sequence: jailhouse statements are presented to the court, and the accused subsequently enters a guilty plea.
