"Pure darkness:" Manitoba RCMP say man killed his wife, kids, and niece in gruesome crime | FULL

Описание: A 29-year-old Carman man is facing five counts of first-degree murder in connection with the weekend deaths of five members of his own family, Manitoba RCMP say.

Ryan Howard Manoakeesick has been charged with the deaths of his 30-year-old common-law partner, their three children — a six-year-old daughter, four-year-old son and two-and-a-half-month-old daughter — and his partner’s 17-year-old niece.

The five victims died Sunday at multiple crime scenes in and around the town of Carman, where Insp. Tim Arseneault said all five lived together.

Grand Chief Cathy Merrick of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs called the news “heartbreaking” at a press conference Monday.

Premier Wab Kinew called it a “dark time in Manitoba”, and said it’s impossible to imagine how this tragedy could have happened — and how the ‘sacred bonds’ of family could have been broken.

“This time is difficult for us right now, because these sacred bonds have been broken in our province …and there is no context, there is no explanation that can make this OK. This is pure darkness,” Kinew said.
