I am a dentist and we occasionally receive emails from our governing association with the subject "request for assistance" in conjunction with the local police; generally they want dental records and they give us the name, age and last known address of the person. Today I received an email seeking records for "three children, missing since 2006" which caught my attention, which led me into a deep dive of this case. It sounds like they may have found remains that need to be identified? Though am confused why they are going this route, wouldn't their families have been able to provide the police with the names of their dentists? They were all still living at home, their parents/relatives probably made their appointments for them. A digression, but we have patients who are 30 and their parents still make their appointments for them :p

Yes, they listed all three by full name and date of birth, which is why I was able to google them. I had never previously heard of this case.

Re posting LE release concerning Phillip Sit, the three teens went missing after he was found murdered. There may or may not be a connection between the cases .

''FILE No. 2006-181100

The skeletal remains of Phillip Sit were found August 8, 2006 - nearly a year after the 17-year-old went missing.

His body was discovered by the resident of a rural property near King and Weston Roads in King Township, almost 50 kilometres from his home in Scarborough. Phillip was first reported missing after he told his family he was going out with friends in the early morning hours on Saturday, September 24, 2005, and never returned.

While Phillip's death was determined to the result of a homicide, police have not made the manner of his death public. He was known to frequent Toronto's Kensington Market and Eaton Centre shopping mall and Markham's Pacific Mall at Kennedy Road and Steeles Avenue, and Metro Square at Ferrier Street and Steeles Avenue.''

Have there been any new updates on this case in the last 10 years? Seems really strange to me - god knows even if I had 10k a car and a passport I would barely make it unseen or undetected for over TEN years. I.think these kids witnessed a murder and tried to split b4 the killer got to them. And failed.

Has anyone been following this case?

There is still some interest from a few podcasters on YT but little else. I suppose Philip Sit and the others could've been involved in a gang but I tend to believe that this was an accident that got covered up. Maybe they didn't know it was their friend's body when LE discovered it but they probably had a good idea that it was. Preparations could've already been in place for months (fake identities, passports, money, change of clothes, meeting place) for if and when and Philip was found. My bet is that they escaped to Hong Kong, where two of them had parents residing. What leans me in this direction is that there has seemingly been no one in any of their families still trying to find them. And here is a huge red flag IMO...no age progression photos/drawings have ever been done.

I would love to know more about the request and dental info. I wonder which Bodies they believe to possibly be the missing kids..

I remember a ME telling me it takes upwards to a year to get results back from a massive dna check. So maybe we will get some info soon?

I think whoever killed Phillip learned from their mistakes and maybe they ended up in the water. This body was found I think in Lake Michigan, could the body gone from Toronto to where this john do ended up?

''All of the Great Lakes ultimately drain into Lake Ontario. The Niagara River carries nutrient-rich water from Lake Erie to the western end of Lake Ontario. At its eastern end, Lake Ontario drains into the St. Lawrence River, which ferries Great Lakes freshwater to the Atlantic Ocean. Before construction of the Erie Canal, Welland Canal, and St. Lawrence Seaway, natural barriers such as river rapids and Niagara Falls prevented or restricted the movement of both fish and boats into the upper Great Lakes.''

The Shocking Details Podcast did an episode on the kids, and I was so glad that someone did a show, I think if more True Crime/Mystery podcasts or YT channels knew about the case they would cover it, just based on the circumstances. I’m from Scarborough, and hadn’t heard much about the case in a very long time.
MOO I’m afraid I think someone thought the kids knew the truth about what happened to Phillip, though I very much doubt they actually knew anything at all.
