A jury acquitted Stanley of second-degree murder in Boushie’s death earlier this month and a GoFundMe campaign to assist Stanley’s family has raised more than $200,000. An international advocacy group says it has collected thousands of names in a campaign calling for GoFundMe to remove a page that’s raising funds for Saskatchewan farmer Gerald Stanley’s family. “The courts have failed the Boushie family, and now, GoFundMe is profiting off of their pain,” the petition states. It further calls on GoFundMe to return all of the donations the campaign has raised. A similar GoFundMe page for Boushie’s family, established five months ago, has raised almost $180,000.
