Two men admit to helping move 8-year-old Edmonton girl's body after 2023 homicide
Two men pleaded guilty Friday for their role in the 2023 disappearance of a child who was later found dead. The pair admitted they were part of a group that participated in moving an eight-year-old girl's body from an Edmonton apartment to Maskwacis, Alta., where police found her in the bed of a truck. The girl can't be identified due to a publication ban. According to court records, separate court-ordered publication bans are also in effect for several of the other people involved in the case, including the two men who entered guilty pleas for indignity to a body. Court of King's Bench Justice Steven Mandziuk gave both men sentences of two years and nine months, agreeing to a joint submission from the Crown and defence for a sentence ranging between two and three years. With enhanced credit for time they've already spent in custody since being arrested in April 2023, each is considered to have already served their sentence. The courtroom was full of the girl's family members on Friday, many wearing shirts with the girl's face. "The victim here was an eight-year-old girl — the very picture of vulnerability. And the word indignity to remains doesn't really capture what happens in these types of crimes," Mandziuk said. "It was barbaric, callous and inhumane, and the product of a very, very poor decision." Two other men were also arrested and charged with accessory to murder and indignity to a dead body in April 2023. A 29-year-old woman is charged with first-degree murder in the case — she has yet to go to trial. Court heard that the woman was looking after the young girl at the time, but she is not a biological relative of hers. 'She had so much joy' Reading a victim impact statement in court on Friday, the girl's grandmother said the loss left the family broken. "I think of what she must have went through and it haunts me every time. I miss my baby girl so much," she said. "She loved her cousins and her family so much. She had so much joy. I'm scared for my other grandchildren." The girl's father said in his victim impact statement that he now struggles with fear that everyone could pose a risk of harming his children. "This horrendous tragedy led me down a dark, cold road — one that stripped me of any trust or faith I ever had in anyone or anything." According to an agreed statement of facts read in court, one of the men who pleaded guilty on Friday is a family member of the woman charged with murder, while the other was a friend of hers. That man, who is 68, came to the woman's apartment on the evening of April 22, 2023, and saw the eight-year-old girl's body, the agreed facts say. The next day, he drove the woman south of the city to Maskwacis, knowing that the girl's body was left behind, and no one had called an ambulance. He then drove three other men from Maskwacis to Edmonton, including the 27-year-old who's now been sentenced alongside him. The younger man told another person in the car after they started driving, "They were going to move a body but not whose body." The court heard that at the apartment, a different man put the girl's body in a hockey bag and loaded it into the trunk of the car. The group then drove back to Maskwacis. The girl's body was discovered during a police search five days later, on April 28, 2023. Mandziuk said the loss of a child, especially in a such traumatic way, has a profound and lasting impact on the people left behind. "On no level is this acceptable — no level. And it's a cold-hearted action."

These graduates lost their friend to gun violence. Now they're making sure he's never forgotten
A Toronto teen whose life was cut short by gun violence was remembered in a valedictorian speech at the school where he should have graduated on Thursday. Mohamed Doumbouya, who died at the age of 16, would have been in Grade 12 this year. But instead of marking a milestone at his Parkdale high school this week, he was gunned down inside an apartment unit in the area of King Street W. and Jameson Avenue on July 8, 2024. Two teen boys, 16 and 17 at the time, have been arrested and charged with second-degree murder in his death. Since his death, Mohamed's friends have dedicated themselves to advocating against gun violence and honouring his memory. "Mohamed was more than a friend," said Grade 12 student Brian Ehigiator in his valedictorian speech at Parkdale Collegiate Institute on Thursday. Ehigiator said he'd known Mohamed since childhood. "He was a bright, kind and playful presence who left a lasting mark on everyone who knew him. This school year has been really difficult without being able to see him in the halls... There's been an emptiness, a silence where laughter used to be. "But even though he is not physically here, his presence is still felt in every corner of this building." Ehigiator said Mohamed's friends have made sure that "his story, his life continues to matter." Students organize to honour Mohamed's memory In an interview with CBC Radio's Metro Morning, Ehigiator said of his friend: "He really knew how to lighten a room. Even during serious situations, he was always funny, which I guess I loved about him the most." Tania Camuti, principal of the school, said that after Mohamed's death, a group of 14 students applied for funding from the city's Community Crisis Response Program through its fund for youth initiatives in order to honour him. The fund provides one-time financial assistance to support communities affected by traumatic incidents and community violence. Camuti said the students put together a number of initiatives using the funding. They organized a group called Project MD that does anti-gun violence advocacy at the school. They also organized a play day for his elementary school in Parkdale, Dr Rita Cox — Kina Minagok Public School. And they organized to have the field at the school renamed in his honour. They also arranged for a plaque and rock on the field dedicated to Mohamed, facing the apartment building where he lived. On top of that, they put together a display case, commissioned art and brought a guest speaker to the school to talk to students about youth and gun violence. "What I've seen is a group of Grade 12s come together in tragedy to ensure that Mohamed's memory is not how he died but who he was," Camuti said. Camuti said she heard about the shooting death on the news, had a gut feeling and wondered: "'Was that one of ours?' And unfortunately, about a day later it was confirmed that that was a Parkdale student." 'A person who lit up the room' Cole Leason, a Grade 12 student, said Mohammed could make a person smile if they were having a bad day. "He was a close friend to all of us. He was really just a person who lit up the room. He was the life of the party," he said. "He was really a big part of our group and just a big part of what it meant to be at Parkdale. Losing him was a big loss." 2 teens charged in fatal shooting of teen in Parkdale Police ID boy, 16, shot dead in Parkdale apartment Leason said the students wanted to not only to honour Mohamed but also to push back against gun violence. "We want to show that this tragedy doesn't represent who Parkdale is, who Mohamed was, what his life meant and what it was on track for. It's really to show that our community won't let violence take control and have a shackle on us." Ethan Rebelo, another Grade 12 student, also called Mohamed a friend. "Within our friend group, he was like our core of our friend group and really made everybody, just in the school that knew him, very happy. He was a very genuine guy." For Ehigiator, his friend's death has taught him an important lesson.
