‘Dealing with a lot’: Coroner’s inquest into Saskatchewan mass killing begins

By Kelly Geraldine Malone THE CANADIAN PRESS MELFORT, Sask.- RCMP officers who responded to a stabbing rampage on a Saskatchewan First Nation were to present evidence on the first day of a coroner’s inquest into the mass killing. Myles Sanderson killed 11 people and injured 17 others on the James Smith Cree Nation and in the nearby village of Weldon on Sept. 4, 2022. Sanderson, 32, died in police custody a few days later. “The objective is to have the story told, honour those victims that died on that day and try to come up with some recommendations that will help prevent this from happening again in the future,” Clive Weighill, Saskatchewan’s chief coroner, said Monday in Melfort, Sask., where the inquest is being held.
