Default Avoid Edmonton Canada at all cost-Too True - You Could Be Next Corpse!! More!

Many residents are starting to wonder, whether the serial killer of the dozens
of women, may in fact be a COP, a lawyer, or even a judge?

Is that why the incompetent Edmonton police, DO NOT WANT TO ARREST THE KILLER
- because he is one of their own?

INDEPTH: EDMONTON MURDERS
Edmonton's murdered women

EDMONTON MURDERS:
Interactive map & timeline [Flash presentation]
Get Flash player

Police in Edmonton are looking for someone whom many people are calling a
serial killer, targeting women. They have released a profile of a man they
believe has killed several prostitutes and have offered a $100,000 reward for
information leading to his arrest.

The profile prepared by the RCMP's Behavioural Science Branch suggests he:

* Drives a reliable, high-mileage truck, van or sport utility vehicle,
and is comfortable driving in rural areas.
* Likes to hunt, fish, camp or participate in other outdoor activities.
* Has a past or present connection to the area south of Edmonton,
including Leduc, Camrose and New Sarepta.
* May clean his vehicle at odd times of the day.

Since 1983, the bodies of more than 20 Edmonton women have been found. All
are described by police as being prostitutes or having high-risk lifestyles
and only five of the cases have been solved.

The site where remains of 22-year-old Cara King were found in 1997.

The situation has stoked the growing fear in the city's estimated yearly
population of 400 sex trade workers.

Kourch Chan is a social worker with Crossroads, an outreach program for
Edmonton sex trade workers. In an interview with CBC News Online in 2003, he
said many of his clients had been "nervous and quite scared," since the
bodies of Melissa Munch and Monique Pitre were discovered that month. "People
are a little more hesitant to get out," he said. "There's a lot of
speculation that there's one person who could have (committed the murders)."

While RCMP investigators say they have no information to prove any of the
deaths are related, they have joined forces with Edmonton city police to
explore the possibility. City police are reopening all old case files
involving missing women to see if there is any link to the most recent
crimes.

Here is a list of women who have been found under similar circumstances since
1983:

* May 6, 2005:
The body of sex-trade worker Ellie May Meyer, 33, is found near
Sherwood Park.

* April 18, 2005:
RCMP in Alberta identify the body of Charlene Gauld, 20, who burned
remains were found near Camrose.

trade, is found in Leduc County, about 20 km south of Edmonton. She is the
fourth female found outside Edmonton in 2003, the fifth in 10 months. Her
body was located in a field near Range Road 235, just north of Township Road
500.

* April 12, 2003
The skull and remains of 29-year-old Debbie Lake, a former prostitute,
are found near Highway 623 near Miquelon Lake Provincial Park, approximately
70 km southeast of Edmonton.

farmer's field west of Range Road 220 and south of Highway 16 in Strathcona
County. The discovery is made four days after the body of Monique Pitre was

Grisly discovery
Female corpse located in area where others found
By MAX MAUDIE, EDMONTON SUN

A female corpse discovered Friday by a farmer tilling his field is just a few
kilometres from where three city prostitutes have been found slain and dumped
in Strathcona County.

"We've had our share of (body) discoveries," Const. Darren Anderson with the
Strathcona County RCMP said yesterday from the scene just east of Highway 21
and north of Township Road 534.

"We do have a lot of isolated areas that I guess are convenient for trying to
dispose of a victim.

"Any death like this is certainly suspicious."

WORKING THE FIELD

The farmer was tilling his field with a tractor about 11 p.m. Friday,
planning to work through the night, when he spotted something strange in the
distance, a few hundred metres into the field, said Anderson.

As soon as the farmer found the body, he called RCMP, and officers sealed off
the area until yesterday morning, when white-suited forensics investigators
arrived and set up a blue tent over the remains.

The scene is only about six kilometres southwest from where the slain body of
Rachel Quinney, 19, was found in June 2004. Two other slain prostitutes were
found near Quinney's remains the year before.

The RCMP-led Project KARE team probing the murders of Edmonton prostitutes
found dumped outside the city is providing assistance with this latest
investigation and was on scene yesterday.

KARE is probing the unsolved deaths of at least 18 prostitutes across the
province, some dating back 20 years.

The oldest case dates back to 1932 and the most recent to April 16, when 20-
year-old prostitute Charlene Gauld's burned body was found near Camrose.

The task force has indicated a serial killer may be responsible for at least
some of the prostitute slayings.

But Anderson yesterday urged against jumping to conclusions. "We have to be
very careful we don't make any speculations ... we don't know exactly what
we're dealing with here. We're really in the dark on this one until we can
get the autopsy back."

An autopsy is planned for tomorrow morning.

Anderson said the female's body had decomposed, but he couldn't speculate on
how long it had been there. The body was clothed and had not been burned, he
said.

'GREAT PRECAUTION'

Joining the KARE team yesterday was the RCMP major crimes unit and forensic
unit. "It's a great precaution to have (KARE) at the ground level at the
beginning," Anderson added.

Jean Archer, whose farm is just south of the latest grisly discovery,
believes a serial killer is at work.

"I think it's somebody who knows the area pretty well," said Archer. "This is
some maniac on a rampage."

About a kilometre north of the field, Sally Froese was shocked when told a
body had been found near her home of three years. Holding her 10-month-old
son in her arms, she said she still feels safe because the area slayings
don't seem random - sex-trade workers seem to be the target. "But still,
someone has lost a loved one."

Today, ground search crews will continue combing the area, looking for clues.

In 1997, 38-year-old mother of three Connie Grandinetti was found dead near
where Quinney's body was found. She'd been shot twice in the back of the head
by her nephew, who was found guilty of murder in the crime.


There is so much bad news about this place, with more and more businesses
leaving town, some quietly, others with bad p.r. sessions!

Trauth is telling the truth, and not even ALL of it.

He is not reporting on the crooks in the city tax department, who got caught
giving a lawyer a discount of HALF A MILLION DOLLARS in assessment on his
house, while shafting neighbours with over-assessments!! Corruption, wouldn't
you say?

There is danger to the Calgary air service. They may lose a flight and
the whole town will close.

the Edmonton police service has a vigilante mentality,,,,which is the
perfect breathing ground for a cop killer.
A cop killer would never leave any evidence on his killing or dumping
site....
He would perfectly know where the hookers works (in his praying area)..
he would have a police radio with him while commiting his crime,making
him aware of possible witness...
I could elaborate more but i am convinced that a city cop is the
killer....
In the past, i have witness two cops in Edmonton standing in a parking
lot of an apartment. Saying loud to a car insurance frauder that they
wanted to help(corruption). " we are going to get him"....they were
talking about a very honest citizen that slept with the ex of the
frauder(basically a criminal)...
The hookers that disapears or that are found dead ,all worked in the
most patrolled area of the City. That area is only five minutes from the
Edmonton police headquarter...
One of the slains hooker was last seen with two men by a hotel,,,5
minutes away from police Headquarters...
And when i say the area that the hookers seems to disapear from is the
most patrol area of the city i mean that 118 ave, frequently and
regurlarly has a police cruiser driving on that avenue.
That killer dose not get caught because he perfectly knows his
praying area..
The killer must like Edmonton because he dumps his victims outside of
city limits.Anybody in Edmonton would tell you that cops like their City
because they have a very very good paying job with extremely good
benifits and extremely good overtime hours.
That would explain his vigilante thinking...
After all those ugly ,drug addicted hookers that the justice system
release so many times after he arrest them, are no good for the cIty
that gives him such a very good remunerated job...
Of course a cop like that would not be anything like a monster,,,in
the contrary because of his job he would search and command respect in
Edmonton.
An expert in the Edmonton Sun a few month ago said that in his opinion
the killer could eventually kill a regular woman citizen....
Strangely enough Liana White got kill in the same district that cops
who patrolled 118 ave,,,
That could be a coincidence.

I am convince that a city cop could be the killer and that probably
because of his training and knowledge he does not leave any evedence...

One thing for sure the Edmonton police force has mamy many rotten
apples within their rank. And everyday they illegaly harassed and
destroyed the life (or part of their life)of honest citizen.
A mentality of vigilante force is well alive within that force and the
bad apples never get reprimande.
This is a perfect breathing ground for a cop killer.

Perhaps they are, but we non-residents are wondering why you keep
posting this off-topic junk.

Cautions to travelers would be appropriate if there were a specific
danger, but repeatedly posting each and every article you can find
about crime in Edmonton is not in that category. And why on earth
are you posting to the European travel group at all?
