’Justice was served today’: Jeremy Skibicki found guilty of 1st-degree murder in deaths of 4 women in Winnipeg
==========
Jeremy Skibicki has been convicted of first-degree murder in the deaths of four women in Winnipeg. Skibicki, 37, had previously confessed to killing Morgan Harris, 39, Marcedes Myran, 26, and Rebecca Contois, 24, as well as an unidentified woman who has been given the name Mashkode Bizhiki'ikwe. The murders were planned and deliberate and caused an undeniable and profound impact on Manitoba's Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities. Skibicki now faces an automatic life sentence with no chance of parole for 25 years. The defence argued that he should be found not criminally responsible due to a mental disorder, but the judge rejected that argument. The evidence presented at trial included surveillance footage, DNA evidence, computer history, testimony from Skibicki's ex-wife, and messages and letters he sent after the killings. The complete written judgment will be released next week.
