Missing box of medication ‘slightly suspicious’ doctor tells court in murder trial

The doctor of a mother who was allegedly murdered by her son for money has told the WA Supreme Court he found it “slightly suspicious” a box of her medication was missing on the day she died.

Dr Niall Barrett was under cross examination in Andre Zachary Rebelo’s murder trial, who is accused of killing his mother Colleen Rebelo to gain money from life insurance policies he took out against her in the week before she died.
