This is the best summary I could come up with:
A northern Manitoba father says his family still doesn't have any answers to why or how his daughter died in RCMP custody last year.
The investigation into Janine Walker's death remains open, but Vernon Highway says he hasn't even seen her autopsy report.
Janine Walker was 23 when she was detained by RCMP in Chemawawin Cree Nation, about 400 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg, in March last year.
"I was stunned," said Vernon Highway, Janine's father, about how he felt when he learned his daughter was dead.
Highway thought maybe he had to sign some papers, but instead he walked into an interview room and sat in front of two RCMP officers who told him his daughter was gone.
"It really bothers me every day, not knowing what happened to her, and I vowed and promised her kids that I will get them answers," Highway said.
