Amy Wensley coronial inquest hears partner David Simmons deny being involved in shooting

The partner of a woman who died of a shotgun wound has told the Coroner’s Court in Perth he had nothing to do with it.

David Simmons has given his account of what happened before Amy Wensley died at their Serpentine home in 2014.

The 24-year-old suffered a catastrophic shotgun injury to the head and her death was ruled by detectives to be a suicide, but her family have repeatedly raised concerns over police actions.

The inquest has been called to determine if Ms Wensley died of her own hand or whether someone else was involved.
