Good chance she lied about it. Not like hookers are the most honest people. Without evidence, police won't do squat.

Never *bleep*/U/ME one got away from Willy could have saved many more if the police would have taken her seriously.

Precisely. But no, she was put down, called a liar and disbelieved. And more died brutal deaths. Part of the slow response to the missing women crisis of the downtown East Side is that they weren't rich white people.

Well the main problem that happened with the Pickton problem was the fact the women were prostitutes/street people, most with no fixed address, so it was very easy for people to assume they left town or the province.

Further to, when you come to a dead end with no family, or real friends where can you go?

With homeless people you are very limited with the direction as they usually have no vehicle, no real bank history etc. It makes it a lot more difficult then a person who has a job, a home, friends, and family.

Yes, exactly, and I hope for the families sake that "human remains" means plural so that more than one family can have closure.

I didnt realize how many woman have gone missing in the last few years.

[Queen K]

Five in this area alone and no clues as to what was happening to them. But I just read that over 1,200 indigneous women are murdered or missing in Canada alone.

The six-day search of a Salmon Arm-area farm where human remains have been found is expected to intensify, as police plan to bring in more equipment and resources to help look for evidence on the rural property.

“There will be a visible increase at the site in the next couple of days,” said Cpl. Dan Moskaluk, spokesman for the RCMP Southeast District.

On Tuesday, three investigators donned latex gloves to search in and around a horse trailer near the entrance of the property at 2290 Salmon River Rd. in Silver Creek, where last Friday RCMP made the grim discovery while executing a search warrant. Six police vehicles, including a mobile command unit, were parked at the site.

Curtis Wayne Sagmoen, whose parents own the farm, is in custody after a sex-trade worker was allegedly threatened with a firearm near the farm in August. He has not been charged in connection with the human remains found on the property.

The expanding search is troubling news to the five families with loved ones who have disappeared from communities near the farm over the last 20 months.


Alanna Wertz’s sister Deanna, 46, lived on the next country road over from the farm, and has been missing since July 19, 2016. Ashley Simpson, who lived two doors away from Deanna, disappeared three months earlier.
