The Herald Sun understands Ms Dolheguy suffers from a serious mental health condition and has only started living without the assistance of a full time carer.
In a series of recent social media posts Ms Dolheguy detailed a lonely life marred by abuse.
“Sometimes when no one is looking my demon comes out to play I try and fight her but she just gets stronger,” she wrote.
“I live in fear afraid of what’s behind the corner, my heart is black I no longer feel the emotions of happiness unless I see someone else suffer,” she wrote.
Police believe she had prearranged to meet Mr Rathod.
Prosecutors have been given until October to prepare a brief of evidence.
Ms Dolheguy will return to court in November.
