Australian teen who killed UK woman has reduced sentence overturned

During the murder trial in 2024, the court heard that on the evening of 26 December 2022, Lovell and her husband Lee had confronted the two intruders - both teens at the time - in the hallway of their home before forcing them out onto the front garden.

On Wednesday, the High Court of Australia quashed the reduced sentence, ruling it was "not open" to the Court of Appeal to "interfere" with the original decision.

An Australian teenager who murdered a British woman after breaking into her Queensland home has had his reduced sentence overturned in court.
