VANCOUVER - There was applause and some tears at the Picton inquiry as a young women whose mother was among the serial killer's victims told her story.
Brenda Wolf was one of six women Pickton was convicted of killing in 2007.
Yesterday, her now 18-year old daughter, Angela, told the inquiry she was just six when she last saw her mom, and eight when police came to her Toronto foster home to tell her that Brenda had been murdered.
Wolfe testified that for a while she hated her mother for dying in such a notorious way.
Now a student in Toronto, Wolfe was applauded when she said Pickton was able to keep on killing because his victims were from high-risk and marginalized communities and were already forgotten in society's eyes.
She called for more detox centres, and aboriginal and community representation on a new police board -- and labelled the disappearance of aboriginal women across Canada an atrocity and genocide.
