CALL TO ACTION
'Justice for Women was established in 1990 as a feminist campaigning organisation that supports, and advocates on behalf of women who have fought back against or killed violent men. We strive to eradicate the discrimination in the legal system against women who have suffered male violence.'
'On the night of the incident, Farieissia had been out and Kyle was babysitting. On her return he attacked her including trying to strangle her. In order to defend herself and in fear of her life, Farieissia reached for anything to help stop him. Kyle died as a result of a single stab wound to the heart.When Farieissia was arrested, she initially lied about the events of the evening, for fear of the children being left alone without either of their parents. During the trial the history of violence was not explored and a mental health assessment was not carried out. These two issues form part of the grounds for appealing the sentence and conviction. Fri’s application to appeal was turned down by the single judge earlier this year but on 3rd December 2019, a panel of three judges heard Fri’s renewed application and granted leave to appeal' (Justice For Women). .
