A Wexford woman who killed her fiance in Sydney has told a judge she didn't leave him because she loved him.
Cathrina (Tina) Cahill, from New Ross, Co Wexford has pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of David Walsh.

Cahill previously gave evidence about his repeated violence, including punching strangers and biting her all over her body, his accusations of her sleeping with other men and his deleting texts from her phone.
