Family of missing Quebec woman found in Saskatchewan asks Crown for leniency
MONTREAL — The family of a Quebec woman who was found safe in Saskatchewan earlier this week is pleading with authorities not to lay charges.
They held a news conference Saturday to say that when Karine Major left Quebec she was in psychological distress after an event in her personal life.
Police arrested Major for allegedly making a false declaration to officers who met her in Saskatchewan.
Police have said their information suggests the 26-year-old was not the victim of a crime or kidnapping.
