Winnipeg police say investigators believe the remains of at least two murdered Indigenous women are at Prairie Green Landfill, north of the city.
Police Chief Danny Smyth held a press conference Tuesday to clear up “speculation” that the remains were at the Brady Road landfill, in south Winnipeg.
Smyth said Friday that remains of victims of alleged serial killer Jeremy Skibicki are believed to be at a landfill, but said no search is planned — due in part to the amount of time that has passed and the fact that there’s no known starting point for the search.
In May, Skibicki was charged with the murder of 24-year-old Rebecca Contois, whose partial remains were found in a garbage bin near an apartment building.
Police later found the rest of her remains in the Brady Road landfill in the city’s south end. He is now facing additional murder charges in the deaths of Morgan Harris, 39, Marcedes Myran, 26, and Buffalo Woman, whose identity has yet to be determined.
Skibicki, 35, appeared in a Manitoba court Friday afternoon, where he was directly indicted on four counts of first-degree murder.
