Adam Lee Steven Prest Facing 2nd Degree Murder Charges

A 39 year old man facing 2nd degree murder charges in the death of his common law partner 33 year old Tanya Shand.
 

Rothesay Regional Police have not released how she died in a violent domestic incident early Wednesday morning on the Dolan road.
 

Detective Sergeant Craig MacDougall tells CHSJ News he isn't surprised by the community's reaction.

He says anytime there is a homicide it's shocking especially in small community like Rothesay.

Adam Lee Steven Prest has been remanded to the Saint John Regional Correctional Center.
Police would not say if there was a history of violence at the couple's apartment. 


MacDougall tells us he doesn't expect any further updates now that the matter is before the courts. 


Prest is due back in court on June 10th.
