‘We’re here to forgive’, James Smith man tells wife of Damien Sanderson
For at least some of the family members of those killed on the James Smith Cree Nation last weekend, healing includes forgiveness.
Darryl Burns, the brother of first responder Gloria Burns who was one of the lives lost, took Sky Sanderson in his arms and forgave her during a press conference yesterday.
“Her husband is accused of killing my sister. Our family is here to forgive. This woman shouldn’t have to bear that kind of guilt and shame and responsibility,” said Burns.
Sky has been identified as the widow of Damien Sanderson; one of two brothers accused of the spree killing last Sunday.
