First Nations men wrongfully convicted in Manitoba file lawsuits claiming racism

Two Indigenous men from Pinaymootang First Nation were wrongfully convicted of murder due to systemic racism and coerced confessions by Winnipeg police officers.
The men, who were imprisoned for 23 and 11 years respectively, have filed lawsuits against the Canadian government for failing to investigate claims of innocence and ensure fair treatment.
Former Crown prosecutor George Dangerfield allegedly used false evidence to secure convictions against the men, leading to their acquittal by Chief Justice Glenn Joyal.
