Where did you hear the news? The presser?

ETA: Do you have a source on this? (Or a link?) Any clues?

ETA2: FB wall is full of grief. No details, though. Not the outcome one would have hoped for at all. My thoughts are with the family.

ETA3: FB wall says her body was found today; no details on where or COD. The presser is on RDI, in French.
 
Dénouement tragique

Les policiers ont trouvé un corps qu'ils croient être celui d'Hilary Bonnell dans une région boisée du nord-est du Nouveau-Brunswick.

Roch Fortin, porte-parole de la GRC, présice que les enquêteurs ont découvert des restes humains dans l'ancien champ de tir de Tracadie-Sheila. Il ne confirme pas qu'il s'agit du corps de la jeune Bonnell, mais il dit que les preuves trouvées sur place le laissent croire.

À ce moment, les policiers ne voulaient pas lier ces recherches à la disparition de la jeune fille, mais ils ont confirmé par la suite que c'était bien le cas.

Of further interest, though I have no idea if the two things are linked, Hilary's cousin was arrested on sexual assault and confinement charges this week in an unrelated case. Rough time for this family.

RCMP search N.B. reserve where girl, 16, went missing.

ESGENOOPETITJ FIRST NATION, N.B.- RCMP are expected to continue searching the home of a missing girl's relative Wednesday on a First Nation community 180 kilometres north of Moncton.

Hilary Bonnell, 16, went missing on Sept. 5 after texting "Oh my God, I am so scared" to a friend. The home is near a store where the girl was last seen.

RCMP arrived at the home Tuesday on the Esgenoopetitj First Nations reserve, local media reported Wednesday.

An RCMP spokesman would not confirm Wednesday who the home belonged to, or whether a link existed between the search warrant and the hunt for the missing teen.

This is so sad. My heart goes out to her mother.

The news stories have been coming out quickly since the PC, but they mostly say the same things - very likely her, sadly, but they aren't confirming until tests come back, naturally.

I'd like to extend our heartfelt sorrow to Hilary's family, on behalf of all the posters who have cared for this thread and waited for good news.

Very sad day, indeed.
 
I am so sorry to read this.
Thanks for updating.

Hi Ducky,

In the comments on the CBC story, there is speculation about the perp being either the uncle or his son. I'm a bit familiar with the area, most of my family lives in NE New Brunswick. The woods are fairly thick and I know Tabusintac is fairly large area with a reserve which is associated with Esginoopetijg. In the Tracadie area, there's another reserve called Pokemouche. It's a bit north of Tracadie. I wonder if she was located near the woods of the Pokemoche reserve.
