I didnt mean a third person. Sorry if that was worded poorly. Im just saying police dont even need specific forensic evidence proving that it was Kalens hands that did the crime. They already have him on video entering the area with Tess and leaving alone. Thats enough as long as they can prove...

Although your right, his lawyers will probably still go with a mental health defence. They dont have much else. Witnesses can identify him as being the last person with Tess. He is on camera going into the alley with Tess and leaving alone. Forensics will be able to conclusively say Tess was...

This guy had some balls on him. Imagine being wanted for murder, and your picture is circulating in the media as suspect #1. How paranoid would you be? And his neighbours noticed police presence on their street since mid december? The cops could have used unmarked cars but they obviously wanted...

https://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2018/02/05/toronto-police-to-provide-update-on-charges-in-tess-richey-investigation.html Neighbours of Kalen are saying they started noticing a police presence on their street by mid December.* The suspects photos were first posted on December 10th.* So...

That Noah person who posted the pic of Kalen appears to be trans too (judging by facebook). Kalen definitely seems to have some familarity with that community.

This is him? He has the shoulders of a 12 year old. Prison is not going to be fun for him.

Based on the summary of events we have so far the most obvious scenario seems like this guy was trying to go home with Tess that night and then became angry when things were'nt moving in that direction (ie Tess called an Uber and made it clear she was going home by herself). But whats odd about...

Yeah you're probably right. To a person who knows him well these pictures are likely enough. To the average person who might just see him in class or on the subway - Im not sure how helpful they are. There is nothing distinctive about this guy - average looking white guy in his 20s with dark...

I would estimate I’ve brought up the case to about 8-12 people I know and showed them pics of Tess and the suspect and not one of them was familiar with the case or the pics. Not one. I work near the Eaton centre and was actually thinking of trying an experiment of approaching like 20-30 random...

Another idea would be to have a few guys of similar height and build as the suspect stand in front of that ATM camera in similar positions and lighting conditions. Im sure a really good photo editor or graphics specialist would be able to look at all the photos and get a really good sense of the...

It’s good you’re trying. At least someone is. But I can’t help but think how much easier it would be if you were playing around on that program using the input of the other 3 individuals that were in the company of the suspect that night. Better still if you had a world class...

In a unique situation such as this where the police have a picture of the suspect, do you think they can/will blast the pic out to some sort of distribution list of mental health care professionals and the staff of in and out patient services, addiction services, rehabs ect? A very high...

No matter how drunk Tess’s friend and the other 2 people in the group were they would have been able to pick up on whether the suspect had a foreign accent or not.* Especially a Chechen accent. It’s not exactly subtle. It would almost be easier if the suspect was a foreigner.* It would take all...

<modsnip> Canada doesnt have a huge illegal immigrant problem. In a population of over 35 million there's an estimated 100,000 illegal immigrants. 0.28% of the population. In a case like that this im sure police play the probabilities. Im sure they use homicide statistics just like insurance...

In their press conference, the police all but told the suspect that they had him on camera committing the act.* And then released a face pic.* Unless the suspect happens to be mentally retarded he doesn’t feel he’s “in the clear”. But the fact not enough people are seeing the pic IS...

You dont think the fact that the SUSPECT was picking up girls in the Church and Wellesley area outside a drag bar and that Tess was in the company of a transgender person MIGHT be relevant in identifying the profile/habits/preferences of the SUSPECT? Did I miss something?

I don’t know for sure.* But her name is quoted in the media in a few places including here: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/tess-richey-found-1.4426053 And if you look her up on facebook you will see some posts about Tess but if you go further down in her post history she seems to...

I sincerely doubt the alleyway was picked out in advance. According to this article, there are up to 5 security cameras all within 20 metres of where Tess was found.* And according to the police press conference, police literally have video of him leading Tess down the alleyway and exiting...

Yeah i remember reading about the friend being intoxicated as well. But hopefully between her and the other unidentified 'pair' and possibly even the hot dog vendor, hopefully one or two of them could pick the guy out of a line up. Even if all the eye witness testimony fails the police still...

Do you think local police departments and the RCMP have access to a database of every ontario drivers license photo and canadian passport photo? Seems like an easy enough database to create. Once you had the database you could just run facial recognition software against it using a suspects...
