A Manitoba family has been left devastated over a not guilty verdict in a crash that killed two young girls in August 2019.
“We’re profoundly disappointed in this verdict,” said Gaylene Dutchyshen, the grandmother of the girls who died.
“We know that there was DNA evidence on that airbag.”
On Thursday, Jack Winters was found not guilty in the crash that killed six-year-old Oksana Dutchyshen and four-year-old Quinn Dutchyshen.
The crash took place on Aug. 16, 2019, at the intersection of Provincial Road 362 and Road 147 North.
RCMP said a Ford F-150 was being driven east on Road 147 when it went through the intersection of PR 362 and hit the side of a northbound Dodge Ram.
Firefighters got the two girls out of the Dodge Ram. Both were taken to the hospital in critical condition and later died.
