Father unfit to face charge of killing daughter at West Gate Bridge
Source: The Australian

A FATHER accused of murdering his four-year-old daughter by throwing her off the West Gate Bridge was excused from appearing in court this afternoon because he is in "acute psychological distress".

He reportedly arrived at the court on the corner of Latrobe St and William St with two other young children, believed to be his sons.
