Inquest begins into 2020 kidnapping and killing of two Quebec sisters by their father
An October 2021 coroner’s report found flaws in police’s handling of the investigation and recommended changes to the process for triggering Amber Alerts, as well as the creation of a dedicated police unit to investigate children’s disappearances across the province.Deputy chief coroner Luc Malouin will preside over the inquest, which will take place at the Quebec City Courthouse.
The girls and their father vanished after their car was involved in a serious crash on Highway 20 in St-Apollinaire southwest of Quebec City, on July 8, 2020, just before 9:30 p.m.Police initially believed the crash was unintentional and they were investigating a case of someone leaving the scene of an accident.
The disappearance triggered an intense 10-day manhunt that gripped the province and especially the town of just over 6,000 people where it played out.
