A MAN has been charged with murder after an alleged stabbing in Langwarrin on Boxing Day.
Yvonne Beres was allegedly stabbed to death by her husband John Beres at their home on Wood Duck Court in Langwarrin at around 6:30am on Boxing Day. The 59-year-old victim died at the scene. The 63-year-old man allegedly responsible for the death was arrested at the scene and later charged with murder. He is expected to face court in April.
A statement from the Red Heart Campaign, an advocacy group working to end violence against women and children, read that Yvonne Beres is “the 101st Australian woman killed this year. “Yvonne was a mum, an administrative and IT support specialist and a much-loved and respected member of her community.”
