The South African doctor convicted of murdering her three young daughters will be sentenced in June - almost a year after her high-profile trial

Lauren Dickason was found guilty of murdering her 6-year-old daughter and 2-year-old twins in in Timaru, in 2021.

She was due to be sentenced in December and again last month, but that's now been rescheduled for June 26.

Justice Cameron Mander will decide where Dickason spends her sentence - either in prison or at the forensic psychiatric facility where she has been held since shortly after the murders.
