Sask. prisoner advocacy group brings awareness for people who died in police custody
Beyond Prison Walls Canada Society held a rally outside of the Saskatchewan Legislative building on Aug. 10, 2025. (Sierra D'Souza Butts/CTV News) A prisoner advocacy group was hard at work Sunday, recognizing those who have lost their lives in prison and in police custody during a rally held at the Saskatchewan Legislative building. 'We do know that a lot of these people have victims for their crimes. We're not glorifying their crimes in any way, we're just remembering the lives that were lost and trying to just bring awareness to people that [have] died in custody,' shared Sherri Gordon of Beyond Prison Walls Canada Society. The initiative started back in 1974 in Millhaven, Ont., when inmate Edward Nalon took his own life after a series of frustrations and mistreatment while in prison. Since 2002, the group said over one hundred people have died while incarcerated in Saskatchewan. To acknowledge their passing, green and red ribbons were tied to a garden fence with the inmates' names and ages. 'A lot of the times when we have these deaths in custody, there's inquests for them and there's recommendations made, but they're not following those recommendations,' Gordon said. 'We do think it's important to just remember them and bring awareness to that issue. There's one person on the Justice Tracking List that they died in federal custody and the family had to pay to bring the body.' Beyond Prison Walls Canada Society provides supports to inmates and their families.

Suspect in stabbing of Abbotsford shopkeeper charged
The scene of a Saturday, Aug. 9, stabbing is seen in this image handed out by the Abbotsford Police Department. Charges have been laid against the man accused of stabbing an Abbotsford store owner Saturday morning. Timothy Richard Louis Rowley, 40, is now facing charges of assault with a weapon and aggravated assault in connection with the altercation that unfolded at a strip mall near Townline and Maclure roads. He remains in custody. The victim, who according to police was randomly stabbed by an unknown man who was attempting to steal from the store, remains in hospital. The Abbotsford Police Department initially said the shopkeeper suffered life-threatening injuries, but in an update Sunday said the individual is currently in stable condition. Polie said the suspect was on statutory release from a previous conviction at the time of the stabbing. Statutory release is required by law for incarcerated people after serving two-thirds of a fixed sentence, after which the offender serves the remainder of their sentence under supervision in the community. Online court records show a man with the same name has a lengthy criminal history of offences in several B.C. cities. He was most recently sentenced to five years, 11 months and 20 days in prison for aggravated assault and breaking and entering in September 2020 for an incident that happened in Maple Ridge in May of 2019. The records show Rowley is next scheduled to appear in court on Thursday.
