‘Your actions caused the death of Ms Little. Ms Little was crushed between the water tank and your car tyres,’ Supreme Court Justice Lesley Taylor said on Tuesday. 

The court had previously heard how Ms Little had called police and begged for help moments before the car hit her. 

In the 24 hours before her death Ms Little text her mother to say she was breaking up with Evans. 

‘In the next 24 hours there’s going to be a lot of drama,’ she wrote. 

The next day Evans plowed into her in his car. He had proposed just weeks earlier. 

The dead woman’s family shouted ‘enjoy your holiday’ from the public gallery as Evans was led away to start his jail term.

Her devastated mother ‘couldn’t stop sobbing’ throughout the final court hearing. 

The family wore white and purple ribbons to raise awareness of family violence.
