Coroner to investigate death of 89-year-old Victorian village resident whose body may have been undiscovered for a week

1 min read

Police were called to the Geelong village after the body was discovered back in August. While the death is not suspicious, the Coroners Court is now looking into the cause and timeline of events leading to the death.

According to the Geelong Advertiser, a care worker who had come to take the woman shopping that day had also visited two weeks prior and the resident had not answered the door.

A sad case, but our own research shows that while one-third of village residents are very much involved in village life, another third are only semi-involved and the final third keep very much to themselves.
