Weeks after marrying her soulmate, Grace Wilson received a phone call that changed her life forever.
"The man I married nine weeks ago was stabbed, that's a phone call no wife wants to receive," she said, in a statement read by her mother Barbara, to the Supreme Court on Monday.
"We were on such a high from getting married and that all came crashing down."
Wilson, 25, was left a single mother when her husband Dylan Bond, 26, was murdered and his brother Heath seriously injured, in April 2021.

The morning after his death, their 17-month-old son picked up Dylan's work boots and searched their Geelong home for him.
"He kept searching for his dad to play with him," she said.
The Bond brothers' mother wept as she described being taken into a family room at hospital to be informed one of her sons was in surgery and the other was dead.
"I started to feel I too had left my body and I was looking down at myself screaming, shaking and crying uncontrollably," Fiona Hollowood told the court.
"My head could not cope, I had just been told I had lost one son and now I may lose another."
She showed the court a photo of Heath's injuries, and turned around to face her son's killer, Ashley Feetham.
"That's what you did," she said, pointing at the image.

After a 12-day trial in October, a jury found Feetham guilty of murder and intentionally causing serious injury.
He faced a pre-sentence hearing on Monday, where more than a dozen emotional statements from Dylan's family and friends were read out.
Feetham repeatedly stabbed Dylan and Heath during a brawl at his girlfriend's Geelong home, amid a romantic dispute.
Heath's fiancee, Abbey Sexton, had an affair with Feetham and the pair began a relationship after she had broken up with him.
About two weeks after the break up, Feetham and Sexton were out when Heath caught wind his ex was nearby and met up with her.
Feetham interrupted their conversation and the men started fighting.
After the brawl, messages were exchanged on Facebook between Feetham and Heath's older brother Dylan, who said "let's sort it" and arranged to go to Sexton's house.
On April 26, 2021, Heath walked around the side of the house and yelled out "Ash", opening the sliding door.
Feetham ran towards Heath and stabbed him with a large kitchen knife, before Dylan jumped in and tried to restrain Feetham.
But Feetham then turned on Dylan, stabbing him multiple times including a large fatal wound to his chest.
Feetham fled with his sister, after she hit the wounded Bond brothers with a metal rake, and Feetham's mother drove him to hospital.
Dylan died at the scene and Heath, who lost 1.5 litres of blood, survived after undergoing emergency surgery and spending days in intensive care.
Defence barrister Hayden Rattray said Feetham acted out of "excessive self-defence" due to a belief the brothers planned to harm him.
"The offending simply would not have happened if Dylan Bond and Heath Bond had not entered the house," he said.
Feetham, who injured his hand in the fight, told police he felt "quite s— about it all" when interviewed, he said.
Prosecutor Mark Gibson said the offending was made more serious by Feetham's choice to use a knife and his history of violence.
Justice Stephen Kaye will sentence Feetham on November 23.
