A woman has been charged with the murder of a boy who was in her care inside what police describe as a “normal suburban household” in the suburbs of Townsville.
The woman and the boy shared “loose family connections” and her own children were present at the time of the alleged killing, Detective Senior Sergeant Dave Miles told press in the north Queensland city on Monday morning.
