#ChantelMoore, 26, of Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation, was shot and killed by police in Edmundston, NB, on June 4. Since then, I have noticed a number of reports or statements referring to her in relation to mental health "wellness checks" by police.

Judith Sayers, a spokesperson for Martha Martin, the victim's mother, says Moore didn't have any mental health issues. Much remains unknown about what happened but family has said they believe she was being harassed, and an ex-boyfriend in Montreal called the police.
