Overview

• Kylie Truswell-Mobbs is accused of murdering her husband, David Mobbs, by administering a lethal drug cocktail through his feeding tube in December 2023.
• David Mobbs, a 56-year-old terminal Motor Neurone Disease patient, had expressed a desire to delay end-of-life decisions during a palliative care meeting hours before his death.
• Prosecutors allege Truswell-Mobbs acted with personal motivation, telling a carer she 'couldn't take it anymore,' and administered the drugs purposefully and over several hours.
• The defence argues the circumstances were unique and suggests alternative charges, such as aiding suicide, may be more appropriate than murder.
• Justice Glenn Martin denied bail, citing the severity of the allegations and substantial evidence, with the next court mention scheduled for April 28, 2025.
