NSW:Mum of girl's killer 'never believed in mental health'

The mother of a child killer did not believe in mental illness and consulted a naturopathic herbalist about concerns for her teenage daughter, an inquest has been told.

Two weeks after the 14-year-old confessed to her mother she thought about killing people "all the time", the girl killed 10-year-old Biddy Porter at a property in rural NSW.

Biddy, remembered as a vibrant, clever and creative child, died of multiple injuries while staying at the property in the school holidays on July 8, 2020.
