MADDISON Hickson was the one armed with a knife throughout a fatal confrontation with her father inside a house at Tenambit last year and stabbed him twice "not out of fear but anger" after he called her "a slut and a dog" in front of her friends, a jury has been told.
Ms Hickson, now 25, does not deny stabbing her father, violent criminal Michael Carroll, 50, at a house at Ronald Street on January 16 last year, but has pleaded not guilty to murder and claims she was acting in self-defence after she says he came towards her with a knife during a volatile argument.
