''An autopsy is scheduled for later this week.

Police have received information from the public, which has helped advance this investigation and they would like to thank residents for contacting them.

“Information from the public has been key in this investigation,” said Staff Sergeant Travis Willie with the Criminal Investigation Division of the Prince Albert Police Service. “The quick response from residents has been a significant factor and we anticipate more information will be released following the autopsy.”
 
I wonder why she wasn't able to escape the burning car?

I do wonder if this is homicide and she was dead or unconscious before the fire.

I'd also like to know if the fire was genuine and caused by a fault with the car or if it was deliberately started with an accelerant.
 
RIP.

''The woman who died in a burned vehicle in Prince Albert on the weekend has been identified by her family as Melissa Rabbitskin.

Rabbitskin was a mother and a good person, said her cousin Laura Rabbitskin, but she became addicted to painkillers after being in a vehicle accident.

“She was kind, she tried to help out when she can, but she lost herself to the street life. But she was still loved for who she is. She still had a family that loved her,” said Rabbitskin. “She didn’t deserve to die the way she did.”

In addition to losing her sister in the car accident, Melissa had lost her mother and spent a traumatizing week in the wilderness over a decade ago, stuck in a vehicle with two children and no food.''
