Greenfields murder: Woman, 48, charged with alleged murder of Joshua Standring

The girlfriend of a Mandurah man who died after a serious assault in his home has appeared in court charged with his murder. Karen Marie Conley faced Perth Magistrates Court on Wednesday accused of killing Joshua Standring on Sunday. During the hearing, the 48-year-old did not speak and only nodded when asked if she understood the charges against her. Her appearance in court comes a day after Shane Edward Peirce, 54, and 51-year-old Ross Edward Weir faced Perth Magistrates Court charged with murder over Mr Standring’s death. The pair are alleged to have assaulted Mr Standring inside the property on Renison Drive in Greenfields about 1.45am on September 8. Mr Peirce and Mr Weir were in court for less than a minute, only speaking to acknowledge that they understood the charges against them. Neither applied for bail and they were remanded in custody to appear in Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court on October 30. Ms Conley is also expected to appear at Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court on the same date. Mr Standring, who is reported to be a Mandurah local, died at the scene despite police and St John WA paramedics attempting to save him. There are reports WA Police are investigating whether the incident is linked to a home invasion. Police are still urging anyone with CCTV, dash cam or mobile phone footage recorded at Renison Drive and the surrounding area between 11pm on Saturday and 2.30am on Sunday to contact police.
