Does anyone know why they say the man's name could be Jock or Jacques, why don't they say Jack or Jake, it looks as much as Jock as Jacques does?
They don't look much French to me, French people rarely have an olive complexion unless they are of foreign descent, Italian, Spanish or Portugese but then they could as much be from these countries. Also their features really aren't French even from South of France, to me they looked a bit Cuban, most of all the guy or of Greek descent possibly.
Btw, women do shave for decades in France, and maybe much more, I am not sure wherever this myth of French women not shaving comes from but that is really just a myth...
Ok, I've found an answer to my question online.

I was wondering if you pronounced them the same way in English. Jacques can't be mistaken for Jock in French. So I dk if the man could have been a French speaker if he had said his name, I don't see why the other would have thought it could be Jock he would rather have mixed it with Jack possibly.
Yurck.
Ty for the link, the "French Juliette" link is the way the first name is pronounced in French.
I have just a few thoughts here, and I don't know just how much of this has been discussed. Please forgive me if this is a recovering of things.
1. The guy LOOKS to be either Mediteranean/Eastern European or Middle Eastern to me. The girl actually does look more either American (or Northern/Western European) or Latina.
2. Does anyone know where the shots were on the bodies? Their clothes have VERY little blood on them (judging by the photos on OP site). Makes me wonder if they could have been killed somewhere else and dumped. (This may have already been established -- read too much at once and now I can't remember.)
3. "Jacques" is a rather distinctive French name. Somehow I'm thinking that he is not ALL of one race/regional background. Could mother or father have been French and the other Mediteranian or Middle Eastern? I have a few friends that are of that lineage and they have many similar features.
Hopefully they will get to that exhumation and do some of the testing that will determine lineage soon. I think a lot of answers could be gained now with the advances in scientific technology.
I do think Jacques comes from the French first name. I find Jock to be a rather ridiculous first name, dk makes me think about Joke or Jocks straps (hoping there is no one named Jock around) so maybe his first name rather was Jacques. Then it is possible if he was from Canada he was closer to Quebec, I don't know if there is a geographical repartition of this first name in QC.
I think possibly his father imigrated and was offered a job in Canada as he was a good doctor. That would explain why he disowned his son after working a lot to get a good job maybe he wanted his son to do the same. I dk if it's so common for Canadians to do so. Then if he was from a strict mediterranean country that might explain why he did that. This more in their culture to "disown" people. Hispanic are much more family.
KYGirl, they were shot in the back, chest and throat at close range. I also wondered about the lack of blood on them from the photos on the Crime Library. We can't really see too much in those photos but I didn't remember seeing any blood.
The did do the exhumation in June...now they're just waiting on DNA results to enter them into worldwide databases.

I have also always wondered why there doesnt appear to be any blod on them. I wonder if the photo was retouched to be published in the paper so it wouldnt be gory??? I wish when they exhumed them they could have tested for drugs in their systems...
They were each shot three times. The case summaries do not state what caliber or type of weapon was used, only that there were wounds to the back, chest, and throat.
Did investigators ever make a determination based on the amount of blood and/or splatter at the scene whether they were shot right there on the road, or shot somewhere else and transported?
