Canada - Christine Jessop, 9, Queensville, Ont, 3 Oct 1984 - #2 *killer identified*

[Forest_Wood]

Reading the Kaufmann Commission report. It’s unbelievable how many lies took place to frame GPM.

https://www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov...rings/exhibits/OPC/pdf/60_Kaufman_Summary.pdf


"Janet Jessop testified at the stay motion that her kitchen clock (upon which her 4:10 arrival time had been based) had been thrown out because it was not keeping proper time. She repeated this evidence to the jury. She was confronted with the facts which undermined this position (including a later re- enactment of the events on television which showed the clock still hanging in the background.) Ms. Jessop conceded that this aspect of her testimony was initiated by her and that her strong desire to see that Morin not ‘get off’ may have factored into this inaccurate evidence. Mr. Gover told the Inquiry that there was a general feeling among the prosecutors that Ms. Jessop was capable of saying anything, if she thought it would further the prosecution."

Thanks! They do look similar. It would be interesting to find out what kind of haircut he had back in 1982 when the sketch was made. He would have been in his early twenties. I assume the mugshot was taken in 1996 when he was arrested for DUI, so his appearance probably changed a lot. I wonder if he ever had long hair and a beard.

Yeah, it was the investigators that first suggested and convinced her that her clock might have been slow. KJ claimed the family was "brainwashed" by police. They also basically invented the whole story about Chipman and Christine talking to Morin in the yard when he was trimming his hedges and he held the clippers so tight his knuckles were white. She never said anything like that. They presented the story to her until she went along with it, and then used the testimony of a nine year old child to prove Morin's guilt.

Yes. I previously linked his 2nd wife Joanne Rocca's obituary, it may have been removed, or you missed it?

You’re positively sure it’s the same guy?

Redgrave Research Forensic Services shared this dendrogram from the genetic genealogy research that they did for the case. The image states his name as "Calvin Dana Hoover" - 1956-2015, so pretty confident this is the same person.

You have his obituary?

I've been trying to find some information about CH on Ancestry, but haven't found much (except for marriage certificate to Joanne Rocca). How do you know he was born in Toronto? I am not sure what to put as his place of birth. Thanks!

I have no clue why I’m obsessed with collecting obituaries of posthumously identified killers. Every man needs a hobby, I guess. https://www.websleuths.com/forums/threads/posthumously-identified-killers.548594/#post-16435886

Unique idea .... I like it and I will follow the thread .... I have a distant memory of similar cases ..... if I come across them I will let you know.

Great followup on tv show Crime Beat (Canadian Global) right now re. the Jessop case and the aftermath with Christine's family showing her mother and brother re. the recent identity of the girl's murderer. Shows old clips as well of the case. And re. Mr. Morin who was falsely convicted and imprisoned, then released years ago. The family talked about being appreciative of the fact that Christine's murderer was finally identified, as did Mr. Morin. Her mother and brother expressed that it was difficult to realize it was someone they knew so well and that the perpetrator was dead already. So sad all the way around.

Yes! I was just going to point that out. I see it is on again shortly! (6 pm PST) Be prepared for an emotional and teary hour. I am glad her mom and brother and other family members finally got the answers they deserve!

things I'd forgotten:

wrt mail. ? original source?
Canada - Christine Jessop, 9, Queensville, Ont, 3 Oct 1984 - #2 *killer identified*

"Christine picked up her family's mail and bounded up the lane and into her home. No one was there. Her father (Bob) was serving time in a correctional facility. Her mother (Janet) was out running errands with Christine’s older brother (Ken)."

...

"When Janet and Ken Jessop arrived home at about 4:10 pm, they saw Christine’s bicycle where she normally kept it – but it was in a fallen state with some minor damage. Her book bag was on the kitchen counter, as well as the mail."

Also, I see that Delia and Christine live about an hour's drive from each other, so in same general area if same murderer involved.
