Please do not let Molly’s death be just another statistic. Let her name be heard. And remembered. For the good she brought and will bring.

After a recent spike in domestic and family violence deaths, the community of NSW has rallied together to seek widespread changes to domestic and family violence funding and law reforms.

Over the past three weeks, we have encouraged our community to write letters to our NSW parliamentarians, including the premier and the attorney-general, requesting that during their bail reform reviews Molly’s Law be genuinely considered. Molly’s Law would apply to any person who is charged with alleged family and domestic violence offences and would require that person to wear an electronic tracking device that informs the relevant authorities that someone may be in immediate danger.

I knew Molly as a dear friend. I also had the privilege of being Molly’s employer for more than three years in a local childcare centre. Molly was a gifted and passionate educator who the children and families adored. She was never one to be down in the dumps for long – always the first to make everyone laugh. People smiled knowing Molly was around.I gave the eulogy at Molly’s funeral service at our local rugby oval in Forbes.
