Six years ago I was fortunate enough to trek the Inca Trail with Turia Pitt for charity. It was one of those pinch-yourself trips and for all of us on that tour, reaching Machu Picchu was a moment in time we’ll never forget. It was the first time I truly challenged myself physically and mentally. Even though I’d convinced myself that hiking just wasn’t for me, I trained really hard for it and ultimately reached my goal.

Three days later, having tirelessly probed the internet for more killing methods on either her or her partner’s phone, she typed: “How long Telstra web history?” If that question revealed a fear that her plot might one day be uncovered, it didn’t stop Darcy from carrying it through. On June 15, following a two-month trial in a NSW Supreme Court,…
