Detectives from Wynnum Criminal Investigations Branch and Crime and Intelligence Command, Homicide Investigation Unit have charged a woman with murder following a protracted investigation into a suspicious death at Alexandra Hills, in December 2023.
Shortly before 10pm on December 7, 2023, police were called after the suspicious death of a 56-year-old Alexandra Hills man.
Operation Victor Verdoy was launched to investigate the cause of the man’s death.
Investigations into the man’s death were complex, with detectives conducting extensive and thorough inquiries into his health, care, and treatment around the time of his death.
Police will allege the man was in his last stages of life, however, a woman known to the man took unlawful actions in administering lethal levels of prescription medication to accelerate the man’s death.
On April 2, police attended an Alexandra Hills address where they arrested a 50-year-old Alexandra Hills woman.
The woman has been charged with one count of murder.
She is expected to appear in Brisbane Magistrates Court today, April 3.
