Alberta releases report into suicide deaths of 7 Indigenous youth

Victoria grew up in a home where she was abused and neglected, just as her mother had been.

While still a child, Victoria was assaulted by the aunt who adopted her after her suicidal mother died of a drug overdose and her addict father became homeless.

The shy, music-loving girl was shuffled for years between the homes of relatives and foster care, always yearning for a permanent family.
