To your questions CrimeSolver. I am the Norris daughter. I gave the O.P.P the weapon used to kill Yvonne. It was a dear antler walking stick from Scotland, with very distinct markings. The markings are consistent with the wounds on her head. I also gave a very detailed account of her murder. Before I spoke to the police I had not read anything about her murder. Everything I said was different from what had been previously published and from what had been rumored to be true. I was correct, the first publications and rumors were wrong.
For instance, it was rumored that Yvonne had been raped. This is the first question the police asked me before deciding to come see me. I said no she wasn’t. If I had said yes, as was widely rumored, they would not have bothered to come see me as she was not raped. Her pants came down as the result of being dragged after death.
It was written in a Toronto Star article after her murder that she was killed just minutes before being found at 8am. I said she was killed with in hours of being picked up, at night. I was right, the article was wrong.
I described what side of her head got the brunt force of the brutal attack, it was her right side, as she was laying on her left side. If you are able to access this information I believe you will find that I am correct. I also stated that she was dragged after death. Again I am correct. I also stated that the killer went near the trees and moved brush around. I believe that he was planing on putting her there but got spoked off and he did leave in a hurry. This again is only something that someone who was there would have known. Nobody in the police department will say that he did not kill Yvonne Leroux.
As I am sure you are aware, that in a case where the suspect is dead and can’t be charged the police can not name the suspect. I was told that this is for civil reasons. For instance, without a trial the person’s family can sue them for slander if they state this without the benefit of trial. This is the practice in Ontario.
The police will not confirm nor deny. I do understand their reasoning. However at the same time I feel that it is not fair to the victims family who will never know what happened to their loved one. This is the reason why I started speaking out and went on youtube. I knew that the police would not tell the boys families that my dad lived close to them and had killed before. Without that knowledge the families would not be able to make a choice to search his property or not. I believe that is a choice that the families have a right to make.
I don’t think to many people believe Cheryl Hanson is still alive. Statistics would not bare this probability out.
You described as a “serious anomaly is the diversity of victims” I don’t know how it is an anomaly that someone would kill a 16 year old but not a 7 year old. Anyone who would kill a 16 year old, attempt to kill his 12 year old daughter is not going to have the good moral character not to kill a 7 year old. These people do not think like us nor see people as anything but objects.
I think sleuthhound response is good. Sometimes they go for what is accessible and what they think they can get away with. They kill for the pleasure of killing. David also wanted to kill his mothers boyfriend. The only reason could be for power and control, what he would have got from killing anybody.
There were things happening at the Norris house at the time the boys went missing that I find of interest. I am not able to publish what it was. Did David Norris have anything to do with the boys disappearance, I don’t know. But I do think it should be checked.
Curiously, when I entered his safety deposit box, there was a cheep black plastic men’s comb. Rather a strange abject to put in a safety depot box.
The case of Ingrid Bauer has always interested me. She was abducted in David’s cruising area. This was the area where he was working for the Toronto Star and would drive around looking for stories.
