“Give people the closure they need”: daughter of late Merritt city councillor renews plea for information
VALEMOUNT, B.C. — The daughter of late Merritt city councillor Claire Newman is asking anyone with information on the hit-and-run incident that killed her mother to come forward.
In a video posted by Valemount RCMP, Lauren Newman emphasized the importance of doing the right thing.
“Car accidents happen all the time,” Newman states. “Things happen all the time. But that doesn’t mean you can’t do the right thing and come forward and give people the closure they need.”
