Deceased/Not Found Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 Jun 2014 - #21

[Bravo]

Just speculating here. Archie is just reiterating what he was told by his Son. I think the killer thought he should have been part of the Patent for the work he did. That's not how it works.

So bodies are seen - I read that bodies were never found?

Would have been prior to the bodies being disposed of.

ETA:
from http://www.newstalk770.com/2017/01/...uglas-garland-trial-my-familys-been-murdered/

Court heard the company had a plane over the Garland property July 1 and 2, 2014 and captured photos that show the bodies of Alvin, Kathy and Nathan.



“Alvin and Kathy lying prone, face down on the grass at the Garland farm with no shirt on and no pants on,” Faulkner told the jury. “You will also see a small figure curled up on the grass.”
