A man has gone from being convicted of murder to being whisked away in an ambulance with a bloodied left arm in the space of 45 minutes.
Paul Jason Sultana was found guilty in the NSW Supreme Court on Friday of the January 2023 strangling murder of mother-of-two Dayna Isaac.
But rather than leaving in a prison truck, he was rushed out of court on a stretcher tended by paramedics.
Sultana stabbed himself in the left arm with a sharp implement after hearing Justice Peter Garling's verdict in the King Street courthouse.
The 35-year-old was tended to by sheriff's officers and court staff while an ambulance was called.
He sobbed loudly and had a bloodied left arm as he was wheeled out of court by paramedics.
The incident played out in front of Ms Isaac's family, including her father Garry
