‘Major breakthrough’: Sarnia police lay murder charge in unsolved case | London Free Press
''Joshua Tomlinson is charged with first-degree murder in the death of 66-year-old Sue Elin Lumsden, who was found dead in her Essex Street home earlier this year''.
''Tomlinson was already facing a first-degree murder charge after a 62-year-old man was found dead in his Devine Street home in late January. The deaths took place just days apart, on Jan. 23 and Jan. 26.''
''Sarnia police launched four suspicious death or homicide investigations in less than three weeks through the month of January, an “unprecedented number of homicides,” Kahnert said.''
''OUR HOMICIDES IN JANUARY
Jan. 26, 2021: Allen Schairer, 62, found dead inside his Devine Street home. Brown and Tomlinson charged with first-degree murder.
Jan. 23, 2021: Sue Elin Lumsden, 66, found dead in her Essex Street home. Tomlinson charged with first-degree murder.
Jan. 14, 2021: Natalie Bartlett, 39, from Sarnia died after an incident at a Lee Court home. Joseph DiCarlo, 45, from Sarnia is charged with first-degree murder.
Jan. 9, 2021: Luis Hernandez, 26, died after an incident at a Confederation Street townhouse complex. Timothy Noj, 32, from Sarnia is charged with second-degree murder.''

''A single suspect facing two first-degree murder charges after a pair of Sarnia seniors were found dead in their homes within a few blocks and days of each other is strange in a small Southwestern Ontario city, a London-area homicide expert says.''
''Arntfield said it’s “interesting to note” both of the deceased were around the same age and lived alone.''
''If convicted, Arntfield noted, that would be considered “serial homicide by definition.”
“Two or more victims at separate places at separate times,” he said.
“A consistent victimology, as we call it,” he said.
“In a community the size of Sarnia, this struck me as odd,” Western University criminology professor Michael Arntfield said Thursday after the second charge surfaced.''
