Winnipeg serial killer Jeremy Skibicki sentenced to life with no parole for 25 years for killing four Indigenous women in 2022.
A Winnipeg serial killer, Jeremy Skibicki, was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years after being convicted of four counts of first-degree murder. Skibicki killed four Indigenous women in 2022, targeting them at homeless shelters in the city. The judge rejected Skibicki's argument that he should not be held criminally responsible due to a mental disorder, stating that he was aware his actions were morally wrong. Families and supporters of the victims, as well as an Indigenous advocacy organization, are expected to present statements during the sentencing hearing, shedding light on the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada.
