An 11 year old girl went missing on May 5th, on the Garden Hill Reserve in Manitoba. She had been at a birthday party but did not return. She was reported missing on May 11th. She was discovered the same day in the woods and was thought to have been mauled by a bear. RCMP has ruled this case a homicide, saying that animal activity occurred on her remains but that "there's no evidence animals played a part in her death. Her remains are yet to be positively identified as being Teresa although RCMP believe the remains are hers. No arrests or POI as of yet.

RIP Teresa.

So why was she not reported missing right away? 6 days later? And found on the same day? I heard about this case on the news and expected that she was in fact killed by an animal. Mauling by bear would be unusual IMO. There would be enough food for the animal in the spring. JMO
 
So who did this and who is protecting who? JMO
 
So sad. And so odd that a group of people searched after she went missing and then did nothing more for almost a week. Makes me think family had a good idea who she was with. Wonder if she was dead since May 5 or if she was abducted, molested, murdered and then disposed of in the woods.

How far are the woods where she was found from the route she would have taken home? I know we can't sleuth family, but just wondering if any relatives are SO's ... or family members of her friends who may have taken her with them when they arrived to pick up another child from the party.
 
Another publication stating that it took 6 days to inform LE about Teresa's disappearance.

Robinson was last seen leaving a birthday party on May 5, six days before she was reported missing to the RCMP.


She was headed home but never made it, and her father thought she may have simply decided to sleep over at a friend’s house, according to David Harper, grand chief of the Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak.

WTH? I'm confused. Harper said RCMP were contacted three days after Teresa disappeared and now the Canadian Press has that it was in fact 6 days later. What is going on with this case? This is not cool. JMO
 
From a First Nations publication:
The RCMP said Robinson was reported missing on May 11, the same day the body was discovered. The statement said she had gone missing before police received the report.

Community searchers knocked on doors looking for Teresa on May 7. The next day, a wider community search combed the reserve. The RCMP were officially notified Teresa was missing on Monday, the same day her body was found.


Asked why it took several days for family to file a missing persons report with police, Kolody said establishing a timeline is an "integral part of the investigation."


He wouldn't comment on whether there are signs of foul play in Teresa's death, but said that is also part of the RCMP's investigation.

Garden Hill Reserve is accessible as a fly-in or winter ice roads area way up in the boondocks of northern Manitoba. The nearest RCMP police is a plane trip away. Who knows what kind of challenges they have in trying to contact the RCMP, especially when the ice is melting in the spring. I wouldn't attach a huge significance to the delay in reporting.
 
6 days is huge IMO. Rez LE would have contacted RCMP if they were notified about this missing girl. Word gets around.
 
Thank you Matou for posting about Teresa Robinson. I am deeply appalled by this case and am praying for justice to be served.
 
One of the many unanswered questions is why a formal RCMP missing person's report was not filed until six days after the girl went missing.


"Apparently, the father was phoning around; he phoned the school and that's when the school triggered the whole search," northern Grand Chief David Harper told the Free Press Tuesday.


Community searchers went house to house looking for Teresa Thursday night.


On Friday, a wider community search combed the reserve and the RCMP were officially notified Teresa was missing, Harper said.

Friday is not May 11th. Monday was the 11th. This makes it seem that RCMP were notified on the Friday. WTH is going on with either the reporting or Harper?

The dad seems to be the person who started the process with the school triggering the search for her.

More specific details:

Searchers found Teresa's remains Monday near a shelter used by the local school bus.


It was less than one kilometre away from the birthday party where Teresa was last seen and within two kilometres of her school.

The area is bordered by dense bush. Bear tracks were spotted near where the girl's remains were found.
