Sask. mother, FSIN want longer sentence for impaired driver who hit son
Darnell Fineday suffered life-altering injuries when he was struck by an impaired driver at the intersection of Hart Road and 22nd Street last April.
Now, the 28-year-old from the Mosquito First Nation spends his days in Parkridge Centre, where he is wheelchair-bound, requires a feeding tube and needs 24-hour care.
His mother, Charlene Fineday, has stepped into a caregiving role for her son.
“I’m still struggling,” she told reporters Wednesday at a news conference held by the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations. “I’m still trying to find a way to help advocate for my son because I am my son’s voice now.”
