A Canadian father is shell shocked after learning his 24-year-old daughter was killed in Scotland and her boyfriend has been charged with murder.
According to Scottish police, Claire Leveque was killed in the Sandness area of the Shetland Islands, a remote archipelago in the northern United Kingdom. It has a population of roughly 23,000.
“This is the sickest thing you could possibly imagine,” said father Clint Leveque.
Claire is originally from Westlock, Alta., a small community approximately 90 kilometres north of Edmonton.
Her father said she travelled to the Shetland Islands late last year with her boyfriend, Aren Pearson, who is from the area.
