A fundraiser is being launched to support the children of a woman who dies in Nelson in what police describe as a suspected murder-suicide. The effort is organized by the woman’s sister/aunt following her death and focuses on providing support for the children left behind.
Both outlets report that the fundraiser is set up by a close family member and is hosted on Givealittle. It is intended to help with immediate and longer-term needs for the children after the incident. While details of the investigation are not expanded on in the accounts provided, the reports frame the death as suspected murder-suicide and emphasize the family’s aim to assist the children during a period of grief and disruption.
