| Moonias Family |
A jury has determined the death of 27 year old Bruce Moonias to be suicide. Evidence heard during the inquest showed Moonias died of a gunshot wound to the abdomen after being brought to Thunder Bay following an incident in Lansdowne House First Nation in which he was holed up in a home alone for several hours. Counsel to the Coroner Leonard Kim says he is satisfied with the ruling. The verdict included twenty-three recommendations on how to improve psychiatric help in aboriginal communities.
