Son describes family's suffering following mother-of-three's alleged domestic violence killing.
A tragic incident has occurred in the quiet town of Casino, northern NSW, where a mother named Sarah Miles was allegedly murdered by her partner. The news has left her family and community in shock and grief, as they struggle to come to terms with the loss of a beloved mother, friend and member of the community.

Sarah's son, Shayden Miles, has spoken out about his heartbreaking loss and the impact it has had on his life. In an exclusive interview with 9News, he shared that his mother was a strong and resilient person who always fought until the very end. He expressed pride in being her son and having her as his mother.

However, Shayden also raised concerns about the response time of the police to the incident, questioning why it took almost an hour for them to arrive at the scene. He shared that not only is he dealing with the loss of his mother, but also with the knowledge that she was waiting for help for an hour. This is something that will haunt him for the rest of his life.

The police are currently investigating the circumstances of the incident, and the independent Law Enforcement Conduct Commission will be overseeing the probe. The LECC released a statement assuring the public that they will be closely monitoring the investigation to ensure transparency and public confidence in the process.

The home where the incident took place remains a crime scene, and the accused, Dwayne John Creighton, has been charged with murder. Sources reveal that Ms Miles was found with head and cheek injuries, but the official cause of death is still under investigation.

Creighton appeared via video link from his holding cell this morning, where he made no application for bail. He will appear before a magistrate in Lismore tomorrow.

In addition to the investigation, authorities are also reviewing CCTV footage from a nearby petrol station, as there are suspicions of possible acts of violence in the weeks leading up to Ms Miles' death.
