By
Erik Pindera
Summary
An inquest judge has concluded that nothing could have prevented the death of Lawrence Beaulieu, a 27-year-old Indigenous man from Ebb and Flow First Nation, who died in RCMP custody in Ste. Rose du Lac, Manitoba in October 2020. Beaulieu had a "lethal amount" of methamphetamine in his system and was in extreme medical distress while intoxicated at the local RCMP detachment. The inquest examined the circumstances surrounding his death and determined that the outcome was unavoidable given the drug toxicity level in his blood.
