On Mother’s Day, May 10, 2009, Tanya Brooks had final telephone conversations with her family. It would be the last time they would ever speak with her again. A mother of five, Tanya was 36 years old at the time of her murder. She was seen later that evening walking on Gottingen Street in north Halifax, before being found in a school window well the next day. Each year a memorial march gains momentum, strengthening the collective objective to find her murderer.


INTERVIEW SUBJECTS: Vanessa Brooks (sister), CJ Brooks (child), Cheryl Maloney (President, Nova Scotia Native Women’s Association), Detective Jason Withrow (Halifax Regional Police).
