In Regina, Saskatchewan, the family of Rebecca Wilson gathered to remember her life and call for justice following her death.
Family and friends described Wilson, 37, as a devoted sister, a creative person who enjoyed painting and writing, and someone who always advocated for others. Katie Wilson explained the family feels a deep loss, stating that “it’ll never be the same” after Rebecca’s murder.
Wilson’s mother, Wendy Lerat Lynn, said her daughter consistently protected others, even as a child, and possessed a contagious laugh. Lerat emphasized that her daughter’s death was unjust and connected it to the larger issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada. Rebecca Wilson sustained injuries in an aggravated assault on August 14 and died from those injuries on August 30 after being found in an alley on Wascana Street.
Police are currently investigating the case and have not made any arrests. Katie Wilson affirmed the family’s commitment to discovering the truth about what happened to her sister and will continue to seek answers.
