Tears rolled down a Mackay mother’s cheeks as she waited to learn if she could have two more days of freedom with her children.
Chantelle Louise Emslie faced Mackay District Court on Tuesday over the burglary and armed robbery of a woman at an Airlie Beach backpackers on June 7 last year.
The court heard Emslie was 38 when she entered the woman’s dwelling armed with an “offensive instrument” alongside co-accused Vicky-Marie Philippie, then 37, and Lyall John Geesu, then 33.
Emslie also used “personal violence” in the attack. Chantelle Louise Emslie faced Mackay District Court on Tuesday, May 11, 2021. Picture: Facebook
