Possible human remains discovered at a Canadian landfill site may be the bodies of two murdered Indigenous women police suspect were disposed by a serial killer, the Manitoba provincial government said Wednesday.
At the Prairie Green landfill, north of Winnipeg, experts “identified potential human remains in the search material,” the government said in a statement.
Federal police and the province’s chief medical examiner are now investigating and seeking to identify the remains as those of Morgan Harris and Marcedes Myran.
The two women were raped, killed, dismembered and thrown out with the trash, according to court testimony from a trial heard last year.
