“In Canada, this type of crime is highly rare,” OPP Det. Insp. Mark Pritchard said of why such a respected team of investigators was brought in.
“Our criminal profiling unit works closely with the
FBI. We do research with them.
They were interested in this case,” he added.
Asked later about
what sparked that interest, Pritchard said, “Part of it is because of the low risk of the victim, the circumstances — a professional woman alone in her home, that’s not leading a high-risk lifestyle, the risk of the person that came into her home and the behaviours involved, and just the fact that it remains unsolved.
Pritchard acknowledged the theories are
intentionally “vague” in order not to inadvertently cause someone to dismiss a suspicion or information they may have about the case.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s vague, we’ll still follow it up,” he said after the news conference. “
There was a great deal more that came from this meeting, but this is all we’re willing to release today.”
Anyone with information about the case, including suspicions regarding the investigative theories, is asked to call a dedicated tip hotline at 519-941-2522, ext. 2211 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
