The family of a woman who was murdered in 2014 stood in a Manitoba provincial court in Winnipeg on Friday and told her killer they forgive him. Her family drove to Winnipeg from Saskatoon for Friday's sentencing of the killer, who had previously pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. Nautia Crier, Poorman's daughter, told court on Friday that her mother was killed just as she was getting to know her. "[The killer] took a life for $20," Crown prosecutor Lisa Carson told court. He looked at the Poorman's family and said "I swear to God I'm sorry."
