Exactly... why kill her. Serial, jealousy, anger, to prevent her talking, hired hit ???? Are there any other reasons? And does one of these fit?
Why her car was brought to downtown, makes zero sense, unless killer needed a ride.
Could he have first cut her in her own car, then put her into another vehicle and taken her to her house to murder her, abandoning her car in the downtown from the get go?

Why is LE so sure he transported her body in her car? Must be amount of blood, but could LE be wrong? Could murderer have exited via the garage door post murder, and placed her into his vehicle and left not being able to close garage from his own vehicle therefore left it open?
Maybe they met up behind that downtown building for a tryst that went wrong, or slightly wrong?
#1 - If this was the case, he would have to have known where she lived in order to take her there. She would have to be conscious enough to give him the house keys to open front door. (Blood in car, blood on door handle and porch step).
#2 - Maybe he came upon her car, yanked open the passenger door, and as she tried to leave, he ran around drivers side and yanked her out or she jumped out, cutting her hand or arm, she tried to evade him, and smeared blood on trunk. He forcibly confined her in his vehicle and drove to her house??
So the question should be, how much blood was in her car?

Did he drive her car to the downtown because he was injured, covered in blood or naked? The clothes found, were they his? Did he wear gloves? I bet those gloves have DNA on them and are still in some location, possibly folded when they fell or were thrown, and folded naturally preserving any evidence? Or was it bed clothes that were found not human clothes?
If he assaulted her by punching her face, she could have bleed nasally, and this could account for blood on truck, steps and door knob. Maybe he knocked her out, and put her in trunk unconscious, then drove her to her house, by that time she might have been coming around enough to get up front steps?
Or was she drunk and fell face first in parking lot, he took her home and things got bad? Could he have confused a possible concussion for a fatal injury and he panicked?

Did Sonia drive her car to the back of Greenhawke store to escape from him? Was she hiding there and he found her?

The blood on steps appears to be enough to have caused a pool or good drips. The trunk a smear. The door knob?? Probably a smear. Could the bed sheets have been so soaked that an edge fell onto step and he stepped on it causing liquid to gush onto step vs her actively bleeding while alive?

If he assaulted her we assume the normal collection of specimens, hair fibre etc etc. was taken, he would have had to worn a condom to prevent dna residue and gloves, but surely hair and fibre would have showed something? Did he just wrap her up in the bedclothes and dispose of her, or bathe her which certainly would have displayed a serial type killer M.O. There is confusion re dismemberment, and I haven't found anything here on previous pages that confirms this.
When the car was found in the am, is it confirmed car doors were thrown open? To me that says she was attempting escape. He knew her, he had been at her house before, he was angry and the murder was premeditated.
My guess is he had a significant other, he has a very mean streak, and he is still out there.
As the OPP are again saying..... if anyone knows anything please call or use T.I.P.S.

Noting some comments about cold cases in general which may apply in Sonia's case too, imo. fwiw.

“There’s only three ways to solve a case,” he said. “We have to have physical evidence: fingerprints, DNA, hair fibers. The second way is witness testimony: Somebody saw it, somebody heard something. But that last way is to get them to confess. People don’t realize that about 15% of murders are solved with physical evidence, and that includes DNA. Thirty-five percent of cases are solved by witnesses, unfortunately witnesses change their story before the trial, they don’t show up to testify. A lot of things happen there.” Once the case has narrowed to four or five suspects, Kennedy said, agents begin looking at them as individuals.''

“Whose life has deteriorated?” he said. “It’s fascinating how quickly you’ll see that right after the murder they’ll start coping through either drug use or alcohol. They can’t maintain employment; they can’t stay at the same residence.” Confessions, Kennedy said, are a part of human nature – confiding in a friend or relative during a discussion about regrets. “One of the unique things about cold cases is that the suspects always tell somebody they did it. It’s a coping mechanism,” he said. “This is how we unravel old school cold cases, gumshoe style.”

I wonder if Sonia's case has been referred to Sasha Reid's Midnight Order? Does it have to be a relative that submits the case?Midnight Order contact info
