Murat Davsanoglu has been jailed for 23 years for the murder of his on-and-off partner of almost two decades.

Murat Davsanoglu claimed to love Ozlem "Ozzie" Karakoc but in the end he was just another man who killed a woman to get what he wanted, according to the judge who jailed him.

"This is yet another case of a man inflicting his will on a woman by the use of fatal violence in her home," Justice Lasry said, slamming violence by men against women as an epidemic that "simply must be stemmed".AAPDavsanoglu sat without emotion in the dock as his fate was revealed to a full courtroom, including Ms Karakoc's family and his own.

He then partially dressed her body, put it in his car and left, abandoning Ms Karakoc's then six-year-old daughter.He drove to Murray Bridge in South Australia, back to Melbourne's west, then back to South Australia. But when prosecutor Diana Piekusis SC turned to questions about leaving Ms Karakoc's daughter to wake up without a mother, Davsanoglu cracked."Pardon?" Ms Piekusis replied.He said he was angry she'd moved on and killed her because he was losing her to another man."So there was no suicide pact on that night?" he asked.It's unusual for a murder accused to testify and rarer still, to confess while in the witness box.

Cool, Scomo can send them to counselling to 'work it out'. real quick, why is domestic violence in scare quotes? I'm so sad with the lack of public interest in the number of women killed each week by their X or spouse. This should be front and centre for all leaders with the courage to tackle this crime.
