Deceased/Not Found Canada - Alvin, 66, & Kathy Liknes, 53, Nathan O'Brien, 5, Calgary, 30 June 2014 - #7

If the report that Douglas Garland was asked to leave the hotel is true, and at this juncture we don't know why, maybe he didn't know what else to do but go back to the farm, therefore breaching his bail conditions. I can't help thinking back to when he was granted bail that he asked the judge about the fact of having to work late on the farm, when clearly the judge re-iterated he could not go back to the farm. Then his counsel, Kim Ross, spoke up and said something to the effect that he won't, and he'd speak with his client IIRC. Left me thinking about his actual mental state and perhaps some lack of stability. Maybe the police are now just grilling him and trying to get him to break down as to why he felt the need to return to the farm. Did they wait to see what he went to do there first? But, his lack of clarity during his bail hearing on his conditions and "his thinking which he verbalized", leaves me really wondering. I'm also wondering why a hotel just outside of Airdrie? I would understand the rural setting and not to be in a well-populated area, but why so close to home?

IMO, LE was attempting to give him enough rope to hang (incriminate) himself.

I haven't been able to find anything about the body found in the water near Glenmore falls. Has that person been identified?

Armchair detectives trying to crack missing persons case on web forum

As news helicopters circle over an Airdrie area acreage and investigators comb the scene, online forum poster “Otto” uploads a labelled topography map.

“The small boxes are the buildings,” he writes. Shortly after, a stranger named “Mrsguest” puts the address through a property search and links it to a business.

I'm with you buttercup - worst fears realized. May this extended family be granted peace in their hearts at this excruciating time and may they be lifted up high above their pain

 

[Calgarygirl]

I don't have a good feeling with Chief Hanson doing the press conference and the Amber Alert just being cancelled ! Praying for a miracle! Thoughts and prayers with the family during this time...

What comes through loud and clear in the article is that we (members of this community) all have something different to contribute, and that when it is all put together in one place, like Websleuths, we seem to be one step ahead of the media. It seems that media is paying attention to what we collectively unearth about all parties related to this disappearance, then the media does a bit of research (like we do), and then they publish the information in one concise article exposing new developments, or new insights (eg: the numerous business ventures that could play a role in this disappearance). It was someone in the media that first released the information about the bankruptcies in a question during the first press conference, and we ran with it.

PLEASE do NOT post rumours of bodies being found.

PLEASE consider the family.

We wait for LE around here.

Thanks
