04:28 EDT, 22 April 2021 75 shares Queensland Police admitted to failing Gold Coast mother-of-three Kelly Wilkinson, allegedly killed and set alight by her former partner on Tuesday morning, after she had visited a police station twice to complain he had breached the conditions of a protection order. In a major mea culpa, Assistant Commissioner Brian Codd and Gold Coast Superintendent Rhys Wildman fronted the media to announce an internal review of the tragic case and admit that they had failed to protect Ms Wilkinson. 'Ultimately it's a failure,' said Codd. 'A woman has died. She's been killed. Somewhere along the line she has engaged with the system, and we were unable to prevent this from occurring.'
