Families of two motorcyclists killed in a highway crash last summer are demanding answers from the RCMP, protesting outside Edmonton headquarters for accountability in the ongoing investigation.
Dozens of protesters gathered outside RCMP headquarters in Edmonton Friday as the families of two men killed in an Alberta highway crash last summer called for accountability.The demonstration was organized by friends and relatives of Tyler Mansell-Duboski, 33, of Edmonton, and Laurent Isadore, 38, of Driftpile First Nation.
They were in a convoy of motorcycles on a charity ride when a semi-truck crossed the centre line on Highway 2, fatally striking Isadore and Mansell-Duboski and injuring four others.Mansell-Duboski's sister, Tiannah Mansell, said Friday's protest was held to call on the RCMP for accountability in their ongoing investigation. 'We're just waiting and waiting and that's where our frustration is coming from,' she told CBC on Friday. 'I was hoping that charges would have been laid and we can finally try to grieve properly and not be so led by anger. 'I'm hoping that the RCMP will see this and just realize that people are really hurting over this and we just want justice at the end of the day, that's all we want.''All the survivors, they're not really sleeping,' she said. 'They close their eyes and all they see is the accident replaying in their head over and over. And they wake up screaming and yelling and crying — just horrible nightmares.' On Friday, one rider injured in the collision described difficulty in dealing with insurance providers for medical help without charges being laid.The men were travelling together down the highway as part of a charity ride for homeless Albertans put on by the Redrum Motorcycle Club.They shared a special bond, and she was proud to watch Tyler grow into a devoted father to his daughter, now 14, and a beloved uncle to her kid
