WINNIPEG - A 30-year-old woman has been jailed after she was charged on Thursday in connection with the slaying 11 months ago of a man who was beaten to death in Manitoba Housing complex.
Sandra Lane Ross is charged with second degree murder.
She joins Ivan Malachi Anderson, 27, who was charged with second-degree murder at the time of the death on Dec. 13, 2008.
Mark Albert Harreveld, 45, was found beaten to death in his 17th-floor apartment at 185 Smith St.
At the time of the death, a friend of Harreveld told the Free Press a man and woman came to Harreveld’s suite shortly after 1 a.m. to party.
The friend said Harreveld’s girlfriend found his body the next morning.
Friends described Harreveld as a quiet man who kept to himself and never yelled or got angry. He was over six feet tall, husky and "big," and friends say it would have taken quite a struggle to overpower him.
The same friends said Harreveld was part of a group of people in the housing complex who socialized and watched out for each other -- he would lend a cigarette or a cup of sugar if you were low on cash. He moved into the building about 18 months ago, and spent some nights watching TV with his girlfriend.
