“The Government of Saskatchewan should have taken a leadership role in this case and the appeals process,” CAP national vice-chief Kim Beaudin said in a statement. “It’s clear this case was not handled professionally by the RCMP, and Colten’s family deserves to be treated equitably by Canada’s justice system. “He wanted a good paying job, he wanted a truck, he wanted a family. He was respected in the community – like I haven’t heard anybody say anything negative about Colten at all. “We help the other one(s) going through the hard times, the injustice they will also face, that we will be right behind them backing them up, telling them keep going,” Baptiste said.
