DEAR God, not again. It was the thought that crossed all our minds when news broke of yet another woman burned to death allegedly by her estranged partner. Kelly Wilkinson, 27, should have spent this week filling lunch boxes, brushing messy hair and doing school drop offs with her three children aged under nine. Her generous kind-heartedness and smiling blue eyes should still be spreading warmth among her family and friends. Kelly Wilkinson was burned alive in her backyard. Picture: Facebook It was the second day back to school after the Easter holidays. Her sobbing children crouched nearby watching her die.

Premium Content  A former US marine allegedly set his estranged partner on fire in front of the couple s terrified children in a Gold Coast back yard in the latest domestic violence horror to rock Queensland. Police will allege Brian Earl Johnston, who remains in an induced coma in a Brisbane hospital, went to the home of his former wife Kelly Wilkinson on Tuesday morning and set her alight, with flames leaping so high neighbours from nearby properties could see the inferno above the backyard fences. Ms Wilkinson, a 27-year-old mother-of-three, is the third alleged victim of domestic violence in just 61 days, with the first occurring just days after the State Government announced the formation of a taskforce into Âcoercive control.
