Prosecutors awaiting files relating to woman found dead in Brisbane River

Jesse Beale, 49, is accused of murdering his former partner Crystal Beale and disposing of her body in the Brisbane River in February 2025. Prosecutors are awaiting additional device data from police, as previously provided files were found to be corrupted. The case was adjourned until later this month while the court works to access the evidence in a usable format. The prosecution alleges the killing occurred during an argument involving sexual assault accusations, though the exact circumstances remain under investigation. DNA testing has been completed and shared with Beale’s legal team.
