Amber Joseph says when she arrived on the scene just after her brother Steven Dedam was shot by the RCMP, she was shocked.

“When I came in they didn’t have compression on him,” she told APTN News. “He was shot three times. The first thing they did was handcuff him and say he was ‘under arrest.’

“He was shot in the chest.”

    “Police don’t really do anything about it at all. What they do do is cause more harm through violent arrests and through criminalization to families and whole neighbourhoods.”

    Correct.
