The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team looked into the homicide in collaboration with the West Vancouver Police Department and BC Coroners Services.
The BC Prosecution Service laid a charge of second-degree murder against a 39-year-old man on Dec. 13th following the investigation.
Corporal Esther Tupper of IHIT says in a statement that they believe that this was a tragic incident of family violence, and investigators think this is an isolated incident as the parties were known to each other.
West Vancouver Police say no further details will be released as the matter is now before the courts.
