A married couple charged with a diabetic girl’s manslaughter began to stop using their glasses and threw out all creams and medications, a court has been told.
Lachlan Schoenfisch and his wife Samantha are two of 14 defendants charged with killing Elizabeth Struhs, who is alleged to have died at her family’s Rangeville home between January 6-7, 2022.
The Crown contends members of a faith-healing religious circle known as The Saints withheld the girl’s lifesaving insulin medication for days until she died.
Elizabeth’s father Jason Richard Struhs, 57, and 62-year-old Brendan Luke Stevens are both charged with her murder.
Her mother Kerrie Elizabeth Struhs, 49, and elder brother Zachary Alan Struhs, 21, are facing charges of manslaughter.
Loretta Mary Stevens, 67 – the wife of Brendan Stevens – and their adult children Acacia Naree Stevens, 31, Therese Maria Stevens, 37, Sebastian James Stevens, 23, Andrea Louise Stevens, 34, Camellia Claire Stevens, 28, and Alexander Francis Stevens, 26, are also charged with manslaughter.
