An inquest hears that a 14-year-old girl discussed thoughts of killing with her mother in the lead-up to the death of 10-year-old Bridgette “Biddy” Porter. Multiple outlets report that the teen made the disclosure about two weeks before the killing, which the inquest describes as leaving her mother “horrified.” The reporting states that, around the same timeframe, the teen also described that she thought about killing people “all the time.”
The inquest relates to the death of Porter, who was killed at a property in rural New South Wales. After the incident, the teen allegedly confessed to her mother approximately two weeks earlier, and the subsequent killing of Porter occurred after that disclosure. While the articles focus on the content of the teen’s earlier disclosures and the timing relative to Porter’s death, they do not describe additional disputed details about motives or specific circumstances within the summaries provided. The reporting is consistent across outlets that the disclosures and the timing were central issues raised at the inquest.
