The woman accused of murdering her boyfriend by setting fire to his house has died three weeks before her murder trial.
Amanda Zukowski, 48, was due to be tried for the 2017 murder of Jeffrey Lindsell, with whom she had an “on-again off-again” relationship.
Detectives alleged Ms Zukowski tampered with the water supply and deliberately set fire to his home on October 7, 2017. Amanda Zukowski leaves Central Local Court last year after being granted bail.
