Synopsis
Read case story
Reena Virk was a 14‑year‑old girl from Saanich, British Columbia, who on November 14, 1997 was brutally attacked by a group of her peers—the so‑called “Shoreline Six”—under the Craigflower Bridge. After the initial beating, two of the group, Kelly Ellard and Warren Glowatski, followed her as she staggered away, continuing the assault and ultimately drowning her in the Gorge Waterwaye. The case shook Canadian society, leading to life sentences for Ellard and Glowatski (though both were later granted parole), and became a catalyst for national discussion on teen violence, bullying, and race .
