Overview

• The 47-year-old entered the plea in the Brisbane Supreme Court after an initial murder charge was downgraded.
• Prosecutors said Angela Silk, also known as Angela Goodwin, died from severe blood loss after a deep stab wound to her left thigh nearly severed a major artery.
• The Crown alleged O’Sachy delayed calling triple-0, washed bloodied linen, and told responders she had a history of self-harm.
• The court heard the stabbing was almost identical to a 2008 assault on another woman and formed part of a record of more than 50 offences, including a 2012 conviction involving a 15-year-old.
• A victim impact statement from Silk’s daughter asked for the maximum penalty, with Justice Tom Sullivan expected to deliver sentence on Thursday.
