A small group gathered outside of the Dauphin provincial courthouse Tuesday morning, seeking justice for two young girls killed in a car accident in August of 2019.
Gaylene Dutchyshen is the grandmother of Oksana and Quinn, who were age 4 and 6 when they died in a car accident involving an alleged impaired driver.
Gaylene decided to organize the small gathering after she was informed by court officials last month that she would not be able to follow the case from inside the courtroom due to COVID-19 restrictions on how many people are allowed in the building.
“I made a vow when they died that I would be at every court hearing — and I’m going to be. I just want to make sure justice is served,” said Dutchyshen.
The group set up in front of the courthouse around 9:30 a.m. this morning holding signs with pictures of the girls, which read “Justice For Oksana & Quinn”.
Today was another scheduled court date for 25-year-old Jack Winters, who was arrested on Friday, July 17 for several charges relating to the fatal 2019 accident.
Today that case was remanded to October 6.
