No arrests in Southend man’s death after eight years

Aug 28, 2025 | 2:54 PM

The family of a Southend man who was killed nearly eight years ago is renewing their call to the public for information about what may have happened.

Pierre Dominic Morin was found deceased in the community on Sept. 1, 2017. Shortly after his death, the RCMP ruled it a homicide, but no charges were ever laid in the case.

His aunt Shirley Morin-Cook of Brabant Lake said even though almost eight years have passed by, her nephew’s passing is still difficult to talk about.

“The truth will, I hope, come out soon because we have been thinking [about him] every day. It is hard for us,” she said.

“There’s nothing going on still and nobody ever contacted us once. We want us to go on soon to find whoever did this to my nephew. It is really hard for us as a family. It’s so hard to talk about it.”
