No sentence could adequately address the ‘devastating effect on the Lovell family’, judge says
A teenager has been sentenced for the murder of Emma Lovell during a home invasion in North Lakes in 2022.A teenager has been sentenced for the murder of Emma Lovell during a home invasion in North Lakes in 2022.A teenager has been sentenced to 14 years’ in jail for the “particularly heinous” murder of Emma Lovell in Brisbane in 2022.
The sentencing turned heavily on whether the matter was considered “particularly heinous”. Under Queensland law, children can typically only be sentenced to a maximum 10-year sentence, even for murder. The Lovells’ teenage daughters were standing over their mother’s body sobbing when police and paramedics arrived and open heart surgery was performed on the front lawn in an attempt to save her life, Sullivan said.
“I suppose I’d like to think that going forwards this will help other people. Set a new precedent maybe,” he said.
