The groaning noises Peter Dunne made after being deliberately hit by a car were thought to be the ramblings of a neighbour – instead that man was behind the wheel.
The groaning noises Dr Peter Dunne made after being deliberately hit by a car were thought to be the ramblings of a neighbour – instead that man was behind the wheel.
The victim and Hill first encountered one another weeks before the incident when the accused was behaving in an angry and agitated way towards his mother, prosecutor Elizabeth Kelso said. “It seems those actions are what sparked the defendant to become angry and to decide to confront Dr Dunne,” Kelso said.
Neighbours initially thought Hill was making noises on the street before calling emergency services about 5am.Dunne was taken to hospital with a catastrophic brain injury, before dying six weeks later. Hill had been mentally unwell for years with his behaviour escalating before the incident, defence barrister Gregory McGuire told the court.
