Saskatoon’s Police Chief Russell Sabo made a statement of apology in which he admitted that officers have repeatedly abducted aboriginal Canadians, taken them outside the city and left them to freeze to death. Over the past thirteen years, frozen bodies have been found in the city’s outskirts, but few allegations were taken seriously. Finally, in 2001, two officers were convicted of abandoning Darrel Night, but officials insisted that it was an isolated incident. Sabo was forced to revise this statement as new evidence from old cases has just recently come to light. New investigations are now underway.
