Missing Native Tatyanna Harrison Has Been Found Dead

The Vancouver Police Department released the information on Saturday, saying the BC Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed the identity on Friday.  The remains were discovered in Richmond on May 2 — a day before Harrison was reported missing — the VPD said.
“This is heartbreaking news for everyone who knew and loved Tatiana and for the many strangers who gathered to look for her when she disappeared,” wrote Const.  Tania Visintin in a statement.
“While we are now able to provide some answers, many questions remain and we will continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding Tatiana’s disappearance.”
In a Facebook group dedicated to the months-long search for Harrison, a tribute was posted.
“It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beautiful Tatiana Marie Harrison,” it read.
Tatiana was always bright, smart and lively.  He grew up with a love of reading and the outdoors.  He was the type of person who stood up for the little guy and what he believed in.  Tatiana’s bright soul was taken from this earth too young.”
Police say Harrison died of fentanyl toxicity, but have not released further details about the circumstances of her death.
Three weeks ago, Richmond RCMP released a composite sketch of a woman whose remains were found May 2 on a yacht docked in a marina.
“At this time, her death is not being treated as suspicious,” the July appeal for information said.
The VPD has confirmed that the body is the same one now identified as Harrison’s.
Mounties described that woman as “Caucasian,” in her 30s or 40s, 5’5″ tall and weighing 90 pounds. Harrison has been described by police as 5’1″ tall and slim.

Police in Richmond have released a composite sketch in hopes of identifying a woman found dead in the city two months ago. (Richmond RCMP) Harrison last had contact with her mother in late March, texting her from somewhere in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. A recent appeal for information released details Harrison’s last known movements, which included two confirmed sightings of the young woman in Vancouver in April. Despite the tragic end to the investigation, police are still asking anyone with information about Harrison’s case, including her activities leading up to the day she was found dead, to contact investigators at 604-717-2530.
