The Winnipeg Police Service homicide unit has taken over the investigation into the mysterious disappearance of 57-year-old Thelma Krull, the Free Press has learned.
Two sources confirmed Thursday there has been a fundamental shift in the case, which is now in its sixth day. It was originally being handled by the WPS missing persons unit.

No other details have been provided, and police have not made any official comment.
This all comes one day after police revealed they had found a pair of glasses belonging to Krull – a development they admit is "extremely concerning."
"We don’t know what’s happened to Thelma," Det.-Sgt. Shaunna Neufeld of the missing persons unit said Wednesday afternoon at a news conference. "As each day goes by we get more and more concerned."
Robert Krull, Thelma’s son, said Thursday afternoon he hadn’t heard the WPS homicide unit had taken over the case.
He said the family is still hopeful Thelma is alive.
"I’ve got friends and family that are very spiritual and they feel that she’s still out there and so do I," he said.
