Friends and neighbours have identified the victim of a suspected murder in Langford.

On Friday, November 6, West Shore RCMP found the body of a woman at a residence in the 1200 block of McLeod place in Langford.

That woman has now been identified as 55-year-old Kerri Weber.

Her husband, 56-year-old Kenneth Lawrence Weber, has been charged with second degree murder and is scheduled to appear in court next week.

One source, who has requested to remain anonymous, tells Victoria Buzz that the victim’s dog was also found dead in the residence.

Investigators believe this was an isolated incident and not related to any other ongoing investigations taking place on Vancouver Island.

No information has been released about the motive of the alleged murder.

Family members have not been given any details about what took place inside the residence the night police found the victim’s body.

The Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit (VIIMCU) is working closely with the West Shore RCMP, the Integrated Forensic Identification Services (IFIS) and the BC Coroners Service to continue their investigation.
