There will be two public inquests in relation to the stabbing attacks that happened in Saskatchewan on Sept. 4.The Saskatchewan Coroners Service announced there will be a public inquest held into the deaths related to the mass stabbing in the province on Sept. 4, and a separate inquest into the death of suspect Myles Sanderson, who died shortly after being taken into police custody three days later.
Damien Sanderson, 31, was found dead on Sept. 5 in a heavily grassed area near a house police were examining on the James Smith Cree Nation as part of the investigation. When asked whether Damien Sanderson is now being considered a victim, rather than a suspect as initially indicated by police, Weighill said they've "made no leap to that at all."
