Shaun King pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing his partner, Drew Douglas, in Sydney in 2023 during a relationship dispute.
Shaun Michael King, 37, pleaded guilty to murdering his partner, Drew Douglas, 33, in their western Sydney home on August 16, 2023, during a dispute over their 14-year relationship.
Prosecutors said he stabbed her with a kitchen knife in a deliberate act fueled by anger and disregard for her autonomy, not a spontaneous outburst.
Douglas, a mother of four, was found dead with multiple stab wounds.
King, who had a history of mental health issues including PTSD, depression, and substance abuse, claimed he was experiencing drug-induced psychosis and had stopped taking antidepressants.
He had called Triple Zero the night before the murder, which his psychiatrist viewed as a cry for help.
Emergency services arrived too late.
The defense argued his mental state contributed significantly to the act, but prosecutors maintained he remained morally responsible.
His sentencing is set for late December 2025.
