Woman found in recycling depot not a victim of homicide, say Winnipeg police

Winnipeg police say the death of a woman whose body was found in a recycling depot wasn’t a homicide.

Mary Madeline Yellowback, 33, was found among recycling material on Sept. 28, 2018 at a depot on Omands Creek Boulevard.

At the time police were considering her death suspicious, and were reaching out to anyone who may have seen Yellowback – who was known to travel back and forth between Winnipeg and the God’s River area – in the days leading up to the discovery of her body.

Police said Tuesday that their investigation has wrapped up and that the cause of death was not a homicide, although they haven’t released any details on how she died.
