‘I want justice:’ Widow of man who died in Winnipeg Remand Centre
WINNIPEG — Errol Greene’s widow says she listened on the phone as her husband, an epileptic, suffered a seizure while telling her he was being denied medication inside the Winnipeg Remand Centre.
Greene let the phone drop, fell to the floor, and later died in hospital.
His widow, Rochelle Pranteau, is hoping an inquest scheduled to start Monday will find out what happened and prevent other deaths.
“I want justice for other families going through the same thing as my family. I want to expose the truth about what really happens on the inside, how poorly people are treated,” Pranteau said in a brief written statement provided by her lawyer.
