Potential Human Remains Found in Search for Murdered Indigenous Women in Manitoba Landfill

Authorities are working to confirm the identities of remains believed to belong to two First Nations women killed by a convicted serial killer in 2022.

Experts conducting a search at the Prairie Green Landfill near Winnipeg have discovered potential human remains, which are now under investigation for identification.
The remains are believed to be those of Morgan Harris, 39, and Marcedes Myran, 26, two Indigenous women murdered by serial killer Jeremy Skibicki in 2022.
Families of the victims, who have long advocated for the search, were notified of the discovery and visited the site to process the development and pray together.
The landfill search, initiated in December 2024 after previous refusals due to safety concerns, was a key issue in Manitoba's 2023 election, with the current government committing $20 million to the effort.
This development highlights the broader crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada, which has been described as a 'genocide' by a 2019 national inquiry.
