Family sues WA Gov't, Police over daughters murder
Unprecedented legal action has begun in Perth, with the family of a murdered indigenous woman suing the WA Police service and the State Government for negligence. Andrea Pickett was stabbed to death by her estranged husband in Perth in 2009 after he repeatedly breached restraining orders. An inquest in 2012 found that police had failed to investigate or act on the multiple breaches. Andrea Pickett's family say they want justice for their sister and mother.
