Eight chilling minutes show how Dalkeith crash unfolded

  • On February 24, 2026, Perth obstetrician Rhys Henry Stone Bellinge was sentenced to 10 years and six months, with parole eligibility after eight years and six months, for unlawfully killing Elizabeth Pearce in Dalkeith in February 2025.
  • Amid a marital separation, court was told he was prescribed an antidepressant and diazepam, self-medicating with alcohol, and had a blood alcohol reading 0.183, with a rum bottle found at the scene.
  • Dashcam footage played during sentencing captured Bellinge's tirade and driving, showing his supercharged Jaguar reaching speeds more than 130km/h and 138km/h seconds before the crash.
  • The crash pushed the Honda 40 metres, Elizabeth Pearce died, and Justice Amanda Forrester said, `You ruined your own life, as well as those of your victims`.
  • The airing of the dashcam in the WA Supreme Court shocked onlookers as victims' families and the Uber driver left while the recording played, highlighting Rhys Henry Stone Bellinge's public prominence.
