Doug Mikalishen and wife Donna are aunt and uncle to Strande and raised him. They told KTW they have tried getting more details from BC Corrections about their nephew’s death, but have thus far been stymied. The Mikalishens said they were told their nephew hanged himself in the prison with a plastic bag. They said they received a call on the afternoon of Nov. 19 from KRCC’s deputy warden, who said Strande was in hospital and on life support. Days later, the family said their goodbyes and Strande was taken off life support and died. Four months since Strande’s death, Doug said he is frustrated because he still has questions regarding how his nephew died. He said as he understands it, as the next of kin, he is supposed to be kept abreast of the investigation into the death.
