In the aftermath of Almighty Voice's escape from jail, ensued one of the longest manhunts ending in death for Sergeant Colebrook of the North West Mounted Police; and ultimately the death of Almighty Voice and two of his friends, when they were cornered in a bluff east of Duck Lake, some 18 months later in May 1897.
