The Winnipeg Free Press reports:
WINNIPEG – A pregnant woman was brutally beaten to death and buried in a snowbank because she refused to have an abortion, the Winnipeg Free Press has learned.
The motive behind the February killing has emerged for the first time, now that a 17-year-old man has cut a deal with Manitoba justice officials to plead guilty to first-degree murder.
"Those are the facts we will be advancing," Crown attorney Brent Davidson said Wednesday, adding it’s one of the more disturbing cases his office has seen.
