Kyla Mercy Red Bear May Have Been A Victim Of Foul Play
The unexpected missing and demise of Kyla Mercy Red Bear left her friends and family shocked and devastated.
They believe the tragic incident is the result of violence or foul play. They don’t believe that Kyla took her own life.
Moreover, Melanie His Law, a close friend of Kyla, shared in an interview that their friendship, which began in third grade over a shared love for ice skating, was strong.
Melanie said they talked daily and shared a strong bond that made them more like sisters than friends.
Kyla’s friend expressed her belief that she was a victim of murder.
She firmly stated, “My friend would not take her own life. She did not end her life. She was taken from us.”
Despite the silence from law enforcement regarding Kyla’s death, Melanie remains convinced that a crime has been committed.
On the other hand, the authorities released only a few brief statements about the incident, without mentioning Kyla’s name.
Many people thought that not enough was being done to investigate her death. This led to the MMIW (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women) movement.
The public is still awaiting more information from the authorities about the circumstances surrounding the passing of Kyla, who was the sister of Cole Brings Plenty.
