Australia: Woman 'killed man who complained about dog'

Story here. Excerpt:

'A SYDNEY woman stabbed a man to death after he complained about her barking dog, telling him "not to speak to her dog like that", the NSW Supreme Court has been told.

Joseph Durrant, 47, was stabbed from behind after becoming involved in a late night argument about his neighbour's barking dog in Phyllis Street, Mt Pritchard, in Sydney's west.
...
Durrant then became involved in a physical struggle with Ms Whitmore, her brother Frederick Reyon Whitmore and her partner Steven Spiro Sotiropoulos, and was fatally stabbed.

Mr Whitmore and Mr Sotiropoulos are facing a joint trial in the NSW Supreme Court at which they have pleaded not guilty to his murder.
...
In his opening address today, crown prosecutor Chris Maxwell QC told the jury that Ms Whitmore had threatened to stab Durrant moments before the attack and had been seen brandishing a knife by Adam Duncan, who was attending a party next door.

"He will say that he heard Katrina saying, 'I'll stab you in the neck, personally'," Mr Maxwell told the court.'
