MMIWG — What Happened to Hilary Bonnell?

Episode 193: On September 5, 2009, Hilary Bonnell, 16, disappeared from Esgenoopetitj formerly known as, Burnt Church, in the Miramichi region of New Brunswick. Over the next several months her mother, stepfather, family and friends pulled out all the stops searching for the teen. Despite their tireless efforts, during which they utilized the media and a widespread poster campaign, they could not find Hilary. On Sunday, November 8, 2009, Curtis Wayne Bonnell, Hilary’s first cousin, was arrested by the R.C.M.P. on an unrelated sexual assault allegation. In custody, Curtis began talking. He admitted he had knowledge of what had happened to Hilary Bonnell.Sources:Esgenoopetitj First Nation “Burnt Church” - Home | FacebookR v Bonnell, 2011 NBQB 246 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/fnknp >R v Bonnell, 2011 NBQB 349 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/g1nfv >R v Bonnell, 2012 NBQB 24 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/g1nft >R v Bonnell, 2012 NBQB 289 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/g1ngr >R v Bonnell, 2012 NBQB 309 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/g1nhf >R v Bonnell, 2012 NBQB 321 (CanLII), < https://canlii.ca/t/g1nfl >Bonnell v.
