As his identity is known, I’d imagine the RCMP have already talked to every known person he was connected with. Knowing his name, considering it isn’t yet public, they had that piece information on their side.
Why didn’t anyone ever report him missing? Would old tax records indicate his employment, a driver’s licence, vehicle registration or other records might lead to his place of residence?
from the CBC article linked upthread:
"How [are] you going to punish the guy now anyway?" Lammerts said. "You going to send an 82-year-old guy to jail now? What do you do with an 82-year-old man that killed somebody 50 years ago?"
Um ... you find them, put them on trial, put them in prison, and let them die there is what you do.
It's called Justice !!
What "tax records" would these be? Do you mean employment records?!
Sure sounds like that cop knows who did it, eh?

Yeah I kind of read it this way too. My interpretation of it is that he thinks that if the killer is still alive, they still would have essentially gotten away with it for 44 years. Is it really a punishment at this point?Not really IMO. I think it's his way of slagging our Canadian Justice system ... where sentences are notoriously short - even for crimes like murder and seemingly shorter still for elderly convicted of crimes. But first, you actually have to sit a jury willing to convict them at a ripe old age. His Canadian pessimism with the justice system is showing.

Not my view, just trying to interpret the comment.
It does seem to me like a personal crime.
