    The Crown claims a mother who killed her three young daughters in Timaru - felt they got in way of relationship with her husband

    The Crown claims a mother who killed her three young daughters in Timaru - felt they got in way of relationship with her husband


    Lauren Dickason is on trial at the High Court in Christchurch.

    She's accused of murdering six-year-old Liané and two-year-old twins, Maya and Karla, in September 2021.

    The Court's heard the 41-year-old asphyxiated her daughters one-by-one.

    Dickason admits killing the girls, but is mounting a defence of insanity.

    She claims she was severely mentally disturbed - and did not know what she was doing.
