Ronald Cora charged with domestic violence murder of former partner
Emergency services found the 27-year-old woman unresponsive in a bedroom at Mr Cora's home in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Ronald Arthur Claren Cora, 37, has been charged with the domestic violence murder of his 27-year-old former partner in Slacks Creek, south of Brisbane. The victim was found unresponsive at the defendant's home and could not be revived despite emergency services attempting CPR. Detective Inspector Ian Galpin stated that police received a call reporting the woman was unresponsive and arrived at the scene within minutes.
Police confirmed that the victim had contacted them in the days leading up to her death. Cora appeared in the Brisbane Magistrates Court but did not provide an initial legal defense. Friends of the alleged victim attended the court appearance, and the matter is set to return to Beenleigh Magistrates Court later this month for Cora's lawyer to request a brief of evidence.
