Remains of Indigenous Woman Linked to Serial Killer Discovered in Canadian Landfill
Authorities in Manitoba have confirmed the discovery of Marcedes Myran’s remains, marking a tragic development in the case tied to suspected serial killer Jeremy Skibicki. Myran, one of several Indigenous women victimized, was murdered three years ago. Skibicki, already serving multiple life sentences, targeted vulnerable women he met in homeless shelters, illustrating the alarming violence faced by Indigenous women in Canada. The search for Myran and fellow victim Morgan Harris continued at the Prairie Green Landfill, highlighting persistent advocacy from their families. Alarmingly, Indigenous women represent about 20% of gender-related homicides in Canada despite being just 5% of the female population, a grim statistic that echoes similar issues in the U.S. where Native American women face disproportionate violence.
