Rochelle's Legal Fees for Inquest

Donation protected

We're raising funds for the ongoing legal costs associated with the inquest into Errol Greene's death, which began in January 2018 and is continuing on through October 2018. Funds will go primarily towards legal fees, which have been estimated to exceed $30,000, but will also go towards other costs of the inquest including childcare during court dates and transportation.

Here is some information about the events leading up to Errol's death, and what the response has been so far:

Errol Greene, a 26-year old father of four, was locked up in the Winnipeg Remand Centre on April 29th for a breach of probation on a mischief charge. He was denied medication for his epilepsy, and three days later he died a senseless, preventable death. Witnesses say he was handcuffed and shackled during a seizure, then thrown into a cell. His family are demanding answers from the Remand Centre, and so far none have been forthcoming.  Errol's wife, Rochelle Pranteau, and other family members and friends are joining with community members to call for justice.
