The parents of Ashlee Shingoose, the woman recently identified as the unknown victim of a Winnipeg serial killer, are scheduled to speak about the update involving their daughter at a news conference Thursday morning.
CBC News will livestream the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs news conference here at 10 a.m. CST.
Theresa and Albert Shingoose are expected to speak alongside Raymond Flett, chief of their home community of St. Theresa Point Anisininew Nation, as well as AMC Grand Chief Kyra Wilson, and Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak Grand Chief Garrison Settee.
Shingoose, 30, was last confirmed seen in downtown Winnipeg in March 2022. Investigators believe she was killed that month, before her body was placed in a garbage bin behind a business on Henderson Highway in North Kildonan and taken to Winnipeg's Brady Road landfill.
Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew promised at a news conference Wednesday there will be a search for Shingoose's remains.
Shingoose was among the four First Nations women killed by Jeremy Skibicki between March and May 2022, along with Morgan Harris, 39, and Marcedes Myran, 26 — both originally from Long Plain First Nation — as well as Rebecca Contois, 24, a member of O-Chi-Chak-Ko-Sipi First Nation.
He was convicted last July of four counts of first-degree murder, after a weeks-long trial that heard he targeted vulnerable First Nations women at homeless shelters before killing them and disposing of their remains.
