    Andrea Marie Berg, who was 42, was discovered dead on June 16 in the alley in the area of 124 Street and north of 113 Avenue.
     
    Witnesses who found Berg said her legs, arms and mouth had been taped and her face was bloody.
     
    An autopsy showed she died of blunt force trauma.
     
    Carrie Goldien Jones, who is 34, is charged with second-degree murder.
     
    Sophie Isabelle Frenchman, who is 48, and 36-year-old Lana Jane Pelletier are also charged with second-degree murder, while 50-year-old John Charles Kisil is charged with being an accessory after the fact to murder.
