Police were called to a property on Kookora Street in the centre of the country town about 4am on Sunday after there were concerns about the woman’s welfare. Her body was found in a shed at the rear of the residence, with police treating her death as suspicious.
A 35-year-old man was arrested in Griffith and charged a few hours later with three counts of breaching an apprehended domestic violence order. He was also charged with driving an unregistered vehicle while disqualified. The nature of the relationship between the pair is being investigated, police said.
In an online biography, the woman describes herself as a “full time mummy” who previously worked at Casella Family Brands wineries.
A crime scene remains in place with investigators working to establish how the woman died as her friends struggle to accept the news.
One friend said she “woke up this morning hoping it was a dream”.
“Even though our hearts are breaking, I’m glad to have met you and that I got to call you a friend,” she wrote on Facebook today.
“Fly High beautiful.”
