   A mother was sentenced to jail Monday after killing her alleged rapist   
   and dragging his body with a car, reports CBS News partner Network Ten   
   in Australia. Roxanne Eka Peters, 35, faces nine years in prison for   
   manslaughter and an additional 18 months for interfering with a   
   corpse, the Brisbane Supreme Court ruled. However, she will be   
   eligible for parole in less than two years.   
      
   Peters fatally stabbed Grant Jason Cassar, 51, in the heart using a   
   kitchen knife at her home in Capalaba, Queensland, in December 2015,   
   according to Network Ten. She then tied a rope around his body,   
   including his neck, and dragged it behind her car to a ditch where she   
   hid it.   
      
   Before the killing, Cassar allegedly threatened Peters that he was   
   going to harm her child if she didn't continue having sex with him.   
      
   Justice David Bodice said in Brisbane Supreme Court that Peters had   
   "significant provocation" after Cassar raped her and threatened her   
   child.   
      
   "I accept the stabbing occurred in circumstances when you were enraged   
   by what the deceased had done to you and was threatening to do to you   
   again," he said.   
      
   However, Bodice said she should have called for help after the   
   stabbing and shown respect for Cassar's human dignity instead of   
   "callously disposing of the deceased body."   
      
   Boddice said Peters' upbringing around drug users, where she was   
   subjected to sexual abuse, had acerbated the rage she felt when Cassar   
   came to her home on the day he died, according to the report.   
      
   With time served, Peters will be eligible for parole in June 2020.
