Hi there MrsThreadGoode. It is my pleasure.
I dont have much information about him other than what is already posted here but I wish i did.
Yes apparently Jeanette (Nicole's mother) has another child, a son, she had this child to another man.
The son went missing and the father had some part to play in his disappearance. The son simply turned up one day after all those years of being gone.
Here is a quote from the article about the murder, there is not much information floating around about it:
At one point in the investigation, police travelled to Quebec to interview Art Morin’s brother-in-law, who was convicted of murdering Morin’s sister Gertrude in 1961. He has since died and police determined he was not in Toronto at the time of Nicole’s disappearance.
It is also said that the "brother in law" (not sure of his name) held a grudge against the Morin's, that could imply Art and his wider family. I would be interested to know what this grudge was about, the reason for it, did he feel wronged by them? Whilst I dont think this man had anything directly to do with Nicole's disappearance you could question any connections the man had.
And if this guy held a grudge was there anyone else who shared his feelings such as his relatives or an accomplice that decided to abduct Nicole as a sort of punishment, the motive being revenge?
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree in my view so in order for someone to murder another you would have to question their upbringing and the kind of people they are surrounded by.
Tragedy has definitely hit this family, bad things have happened to BOTH Art and Jeanette, what does that mean, if anything? Then there was the end of their marriage as well.
Is it just bad luck or was there something deeper going on? That has played on my mind a lot. I find these events to be unrelated yet feel there could be a relation. Maybe it really is just bad luck.
It does say they have cleared all family members but i do wonder what they mean by "all", do they just mean a few people in the wider family or everyone in the wider family? How were they cleared?
It is also said a woman was strangled to death in the same building two years later where Nicole lived, they did not find any connection but it does leave you wondering, lightning rarely strikes the same place twice in such a short amount of time, even if the perp is not the same for both cases one could argue the building attracted some shady people.
I've seen quite a few comments from people who say they lived in the same building or around this area as kids mentioning how strangers would come up to them and offer then candy and sweets outside or ask them to go with them somewhere, very creepy. Since there were a good few reports of this it could certainly confirm the idea there were some pedophiles in the area.
There was a mention of a young woman who was reported as possibly being Nicole, this woman claimed she was adopted at a young age but cannot remember her childhood. I am not sure whether anything further happened with that but surely a DNA sample would have been enough to identify her and get to the bottom of it, possibly they already have and she is not the same person.
Some of this info i share here is from R.J Hoshowsky's book.
Also "Lovie Riddle" the guy who claimed he had kidnapped Nicole and passed her onto someone else, i think he was full of it, he never gave the position or name of the person she was passed onto, how convenient right? I think Lovie was just a fantasist obsessed with committing crimes and wanted to insert himself into the crimes, pretending he played a part in them to be garner attention.
PS: I want to thank those who posted the sources as i could not remember where i had read them, its been a good while.
JMO.
