FUNDS NEEDED FOR CORONER’S INQUEST
Nadine Machiskinic died on January 10, 2015 after falling 10 storeys at the Delta Hotel in Regina Saskatchewan. The police were not notified for nearly 60 hours.
Nadine was a young Indigenous mother of four. She was a beloved daughter, mother and niece. The family struggled for over a year to find answers in her death. Coroners delays and police delays continued.
Finally, in summer 2016, two conflicting Coroner’s Reports were released. One report indicated that Nadine could not have put herself in the laundry chute. The other report indicated she could have. Days later, a Coroner's Inquest was announced which will investigate all the elements of her death and investigation. At that time the Attorney General and Minister of Justice of Saskatchewan told the local newspaper, "I’m concerned that the confidence in the coroner’s office and the confidence in the administration of justice has been put into question.”
At the two year anniversary of her death, there still remains more questions than answers in Nadine’s case. To help find answers, the family has secured a lawyer to represent them in the upcoming Coroner’s Inquest.
The Coroner’s Inquest will be held March 27-31, 2017. This will be a public event and all supporters are encouraged to come and show support for the family. The Coroner’s Inquest will investigate the circumstances of her death and the circumstances surrounding the investigation. During a time in which a National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls is being undertaken, it is necessary that Coroner’s Inquests into the deaths of Indigenous women are carried out in such a way that families are best supported.
The family needs a lawyer to represent them at the Inquiry in Regina. Help support them by giving to this fund to pay for that lawyer. Help them find Justice for Nadine and justice for her children.
