From a previously linked article re the search by bring them home charity. It stated mbm was asked by the rcmp if items found were belonging to the kids or items of interest. She replied no .so therefore the items were considered useless to the investigation

Firstly is it common for this to happen ,I would have thought that any items gathered would be bagged up and independently tested to see if they had relevance or not . I found it strange that a disappearance considered suspicious ( quoted by rcmp in articles previously linked and recalled from memory ) would allow a person present on the morning to verify items by photograph to see if evidence is relevant or not??

Secondly if they are not being tested or bagged up how would investigators know if they were discarded by a potential perp unknown to the children. ? Or if they had stains or dna belonging to the children or a potential perp invisible to the naked eye .

It just seemed odd considering there is no leads in the investigation for any theory to be plausible atm

It is heartbreaking not knowing what happened to those dear little souls.

Agree, Christmas soon and a silent mother…. I’ll never understand

There are two things that stand out to me right now. The first is that the step grandma did not actually see the children on the Friday morning. In her interview, she notes that she HEARD them. She emphasizes that she did not hear them go out the gate and down the driveway, insisting she would have heard that. Is it possible that what she heard was a recording of them being played on a device? It would play, then stop, which fits with her not hearing them go out the gate. Secondly, the RCMP statement is that the children were seen with family. It does not clarify if they were seen in a car, or in a store, or actively moving about. There is mention that laundry was done, but the children did not go into the home, they waited outside. So, when were the children last actually seen AND engaged with by someone outside of family?

It is my great hope that LE has someone in their sights and just waiting for the last clues to fall into place. It is my belief that the disappearance of these children IS criminal in nature.
IMHO

I wish I had a better understanding of what Are the parameters for defining the disappearance as being criminal in nature Versus not, as per the RCMP.

What is the law in Canada pertaining to the death of a child by misadventure in scenarios where it happens because a parent has
put the child in danger due to irresponsibility

Sample scenarios

Young Child drowns in a bath because parent left them unsupervised

Child ingests medication prescribed or otherwise and ODs

Child dies in a car crash because parent didn't place them in a safety car seat or were not strapped in with a seat belt


Child ingests chemicals that were not secured

Child shoots themselves with a gun not locked away appropriately

Or like we have here children get out an unlocked door into an area that is dangerous, ( rivers , debris , main road while parents slept .

Very good questions Su5ie. I too would love the answers to those questions. Hopefully someone on here can give us some insight on their laws.
