The family of a woman who died after a 12-year-old allegedly lit a fire at the foot of her bed say they're still grieving.
The woman died in hospital in 2020 after suffering burns to 70 per cent of her body and lacerations after she climbed out the window of her burning bedroom.
"We are still grieving and feeling the loss of her presence every day," the woman's son told Open Justice as the teen accused of her murder appeared in court today.
"She has left a massive hole in our lives that may never be filled but we thank all those who have helped us through this devastating time.
