    Lori Ruff Identified as Kimberly McLean of PA

    I'd like to understand the page of notes and why she kept them. I'd like to know why she felt she had to change her identity twice. What I'd really like is for someone who knew her and could speak to her good parts. She's been defined as an adolescent who couldn't cope, an identity thief...

    Lori Ruff Identified as Kimberly McLean of PA

    The article just said she "told" them she was leaving, so it could have been in person. Who knows what tempers were flaring in the lead up to this statement. I wish we had a sense. On a different note, do we know if she was born in PA? I think I recall that she told S/S that she came from...

    TX - 'Lori Ruff', Longview, WhtFem UP9863, *General Discussion and Theories* #5

    I've been following LEK's case for the last three or four years. It's always been one of my top cases to see solved. But now that we know she is is identified, I don't feel the same urgency to know who she is. Yes, I want to know her story, but if I don't, so be it. I want her soul to be at...

    CANADA Canada - Samuel Lottery, 17, London, Ont, 19 Jan 1996

    From the same article: Perhaps the letter writer was not the killer, but a witness on-site or after the fact. Someone who didn't want to name the murderer but felt guilty about that his body might not be found. The "threatening" tone might have been to dissuade the parents from looking for the...

    CANADA Canada - Samuel Lottery, 17, London, Ont, 19 Jan 1996

    What a tragic story. :( In reading the LFP article http://www.lfpress.com/news/london/2009/10/27/11539966.html I'm struck by the following: I'm thinking that LE may have a very good idea of who the killer is, but do not yet have the evidence to support the theory. It would be wonderful...

    CANADA Canada - Malpeque Bay, PEI, Male, 21-35, unusual facial features, Jun'97

    HA! I really am blind. :doh: The crimestoppers link says, " No match has been found with any missing person cases since the body was recovered." I see the CBC story says the same. I wonder how accurate this is, ie in terms of "any." Unfortunately http://www.canadasmissing.ca/index-eng.htm...

    CANADA Canada - Malpeque Bay, PEI, Male, 21-35, unusual facial features, Jun'97

    Did they ever reveal an estimated age, or am I just too blind? I'm not sure how well linked our missing persons databases are up here. :/

    Jian Ghomeshi, well known, well respected radio host fired for Sexual Assault

    I really liked Moxy Fruvous. I loved Jian on Q. I was sad for him when his father died. When CBC announced he was taking personal leave, I thought it was grief-related. When they fired him, I thought he had been putting together another show somewhere else, probably in NY or LA. As the news...

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    Another interesting article about the gun. It was not a semi-automatic, but a Winchester .30-30. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa-shooting-where-did-michael-zehaf-bibeau-get-his-gun-1.2811249

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    Another article about the shooter and the days leading up to the shooting. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/drugs-and-religion-key-themes-in-ottawa-shooters-troubled-life/article21282240/?click=sf_globefb#dashboard/follows/ Maybe I am being naive, but I think there is a fine line...

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    It is very confusing. There were also descriptions of the shooter being slight and others of him being "fat." I suspect this is all part of what they are investigating. Traffic cams may caught some footage.

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    I believe it was an ISIS-related twitter account that was shut down when it showed the shooter's photo and claimed him as one of theirs. I heard it on CBC during the day yesterday, but don't see a link right now.

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    Today's La Presse published a letter from Suzanne Bibeau, the shooter's mother. http://blogues.lapresse.ca/mere/2014/10/23/la-lettre-des-parents-de-michael-zehaf-bibeau/ Rough translation: Hello, I am writing this note on behalf of me and my husband. No words can express the sadness we feel...

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    I believe when he stopped his car at the War Memorial, a witness thought there was someone else in the car, but that was earlier in the reportings. In the raw footage from Parliament Hill it shows his car leaving the War Memorial, turning left onto Wellington St. and stopping at the Hill. At...

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    Bibeau got from the War Memorial into the Centre Block in about a minute 20 seconds. That's pretty fast for that distance and makes the first responders' reactions even more incredible. I think the Hall of Honour is appropriately named. It's not very often that I can listen to speeches by all...

    Canada - Sentry killed in War Memorial shooting, Ottawa, 22 Oct 2014

    I have lived all of my adult life here in Ottawa (some 30+ years). It has always been a peaceful, safe city, but in the last 10-15 years, access on the Hill has become more restricted. We used to be able to drive right up to the front to the front doors of the Centre Block of Parliament. While...

    Germany Germany - Dirk Schiller, 3, Harz, 10 March 1979

    Well, I did find this article from February 2014 that gives background on the case. I just put sections in Google Translate to read it. http://www.faz.net/aktuell/gesellschaft/menschen/verschollen-in-der-ddr-wo-ist-dirk-12804048.html Also a FB page I hadn't seen before, but which seems to have...

    MI MI - Eric Franks, 40, Buena Vista Twp, 21 March 2011 - #1

    Searchingfamily, my heart goes out to your family. Eric's 40th birthday is approaching. I hope we can bring him home. I am wondering if the connection to XGF and child is through Facebook. Maybe they connected on FB and he saw photos of the child? Or maybe she told him in a moment of guilt or...
