Here is a chronological list of London, Ontario murder cases from the time frame. A few were considered "solved" but all deserve consideration as possible connections are researched.
I am sure that there are more in and around London, Ontario - and also a number across the Detroit River in Michigan which could be included in a list of possible connected cases.
