Man charged with murder after mum’s body found in river

A man was accused of murder seven months after the body of two mothers in a river.

Crystal Beale, 49, addressed the police for information after being dead on the Brisbane River on February 22nd.

Ms. Beale left a family dinner the night before at 20.30.

Police said the last confirmed view was by Brisbane’s former partner in West End.

The officers then found one of the Sandals of Mrs. Beale’s boats in the bushes in West and a few personal goods in Orleight Park near the Brisbane River.

Inspectors also examined the CCTV image of more than 1000 hours.

The detectives searched for a house in Gold Coast Hinterland on Monday, where a 49 -year -old man was arrested and accused of abuse of murder (crime of domestic violence) and a corpse.

He is expected to appear at the Brisbane Magistrate Court on Monday.

Detective Inspector Wayne Francis said that Beale’s death had a destructive effect on the family and friends.

“For the last seven months, detectives are investigating every street that is possible to find answers without getting tired,” he said.

He continued: “We would not give up until the provision of these answers and the Justice for Crystal.”

The police initially thought that after Mrs. Beale’s death was discovered by a rower in the early hours of February 22, she was not suspicious.

However, more investigations and a post -death murder investigation were initiated.

Mrs. Beale was believed to be in water for about six hours.
