Inside accused killer Daniel Billings' alleged campaign of terror against Molly Ticehurst before her death - as her grim joke about men is revealed

A mother who allegedly died at the hands of her ex-boyfriend was also allegedly raped, harassed and had her property destroyed by him in a three-month campaign of terror.

Daniel Billings, 29, was charged with murder after police found Molly Ticehurst's dead body at the home they used to share on Young Street in Forbes, about 137km west of Sydney, just before 2am on Monday.

They had been in a relationship for about 18 months until July last year, but briefly got back together in December.

At the time of the alleged murder, Billings had already faced court in Dubbo over a string of alleged abuse levelled at Ms Ticehurst, 28, between January and April this year.

According to court documents, he allegedly raped her three times, stalked and harassed her four times, smashed her car windows, and assaulted her 12-week-old dachshund.

Daily Mail Australia can reveal Billings worked for a drilling company in nearby Parkes, but he only had $1.60 when he was arrested over those alleged incidents on April 5.

He was granted conditional bail the following day and was under court orders not to approach Ms Ticehurst. She was dead 15 days later.

In an unearthed Facebook post from 2019, Ms Ticehurst's close friend joked about how the pair had 'many chats about turning lesbian because of the male population'.

Billings' boss at the drilling company described the alleged incident to Daily Mail Australia as 'horrific'.

'It's a really horrific thing that has happened,' the business owner said.

'He has been known to us, but it's not our place to comment and we need to think of our staff who are struggling right now.'

Billings was charged with murder on Monday before he had his bail revoked at Orange Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.

His previous charges were also mentioned during court proceedings.

According to court documents, the first time Billings raped Ms Ticehurst was during a nine-hour period on January 3, a few weeks after the pair briefly rekindled their relationship.

He also allegedly stalked and intimidated her, smashing her pedestal fan at the same time.

On January 14, Billings allegedly stalked and intimidated her in Forbes and smashed her car windows, after which he contacted her and offered to pay for the damage.

On March 4, they met near a Harvey Norman store in Parkes and Billings allegedly drove off with Ms Ticehurst in the car. He then allegedly raped her twice in the back seat.

He allegedly stalked and intimidated her on April 3.

Two days later, he was arrested and charged with ten offences and was granted conditional release by the registrar for $5,000 surety, despite strong opposition by the police prosecutor.

At the time of arrest, he was carrying $1.60, a wallet with a Mastercard, Medicare card and a driver's licence, along with a phone, sunglasses and a hat. 

As part of his conditions, Billings had to report to Parkes Police Station once a day, he was not allowed to drink or take drugs, and was banned from going to Forbes and from contacting Ms Ticehurst.

An interim apprehended domestic violence order was also made, banning him from going within one kilometre of her home or work.

His charges and the AVO were mentioned in Parkes Local Court on April 18.

By April 22, just 15 days after he was granted bail, Billings had allegedly breached his bail conditions and the AVO.

Police will allege he drove to Forbes and violently murdered Ms Ticehurst between midnight and 1.50am on April 22.

Emergency services found her body after concerns for her welfare were raised.

Billings had allegedly fled to a property in Fifield, more than 100km away from Forbes, even though he had been living in a four-bedroom home in Parkes with other tradesmen.

On Tuesday, one of Ms Ticehurst's neighbours in Forbes told Daily Mail Australia the pair had moved in together about a year ago.

They often heard loud noises coming from the property, but didn't hear anything on the night of the alleged murder.

'I often heard raised voices coming from their joint, but not that night,' the neighbour said.

'She seemed polite. I didn't know her - she kept to herself, but that tattooed bloke was always cursing and muttering to himself.'

Police scoured the home on Tuesday during the investigation into Ms Ticehurst's death.

Members of the local community placed floral tributes in front of her home, which had shattered front windows.

His matter will return to Orange Local Court on June 20.
