A furious 18-year-old plunged the biggest knife she could find into her boyfriend s neck, a prosecutor told murder trial jurors today.
Rikki-Lee Te Mauriora Simeon has denied murdering Brendon Hamilton, the father of her child, at a Dominion Rd apartment in May 2019.
Crown prosecutor Kirsten Lummis said the Auckland couple s relationship was peppered with violence and the young parents had handed care of their baby to a Rotorua relative.
Lummis told the High Court in Auckland that Hamilton complained in 2018 about Simeon being violent, angry and jealous.
