Patricia is 32 years old and she grew up in a Catholic family, who observed strict traditions. Patricia is a devout Catholic and she attends church every week. She teaches at Sunday school and often helps with local fundraising activities for the church when asked to by the local priest. She lives in a unit with her husband Harry. Patricia has only had one sexual partner because she did not believe in sex before marriage. They were married eight years ago. One Saturday afternoon Patricia was watching TV whilst she was in the kitchen making Harry some dinner. Harry came in and flicked the TV onto sports and Patricia was not impressed and said to him “You are so selfish, I do everything for you and I cannot even watch my favourite TV show!!”. Harry replied and said, “You are just a drama queen”. He then threw the TV remote at her, approached her and said “If you do not let me watch tv I will throw you down and choke you, tie you up and leave you in your room for days. That way I won’t have to hear you nagging”. He then said “You are too busy with other things and do not give me any attention. That is why I have been cheating on you with Jade, the women in apartment A1 downstairs”. Patricia was furious with Harry and without thinking stabbed Harry twice in the face with a knife, causing him to fall to the floor. She threw the dinner she had been making over him, then proceeded to stab and kill him in a savage and brutal attack. Patricia later told police, “When he said he was cheating I felt terrible, my mind started to go, like an explosion in my head, I do not remember much”. The police medical report revealed that the victim had been stabbed twice in the eye and numerous times to the back (10 stab injuries), one of which penetrated his right lung.
Advise whether Patricia is liable for murder. Advise what defences if any Patricia may raise. (NSW LAW)
