Group searching for closure in two unsolved missing people cases

Please Bring Me Home looking for volunteers to help search for Luciano Trinaistich, who went missing in July 2007, and Chris Rivers, who's been missing since August 2017

A volunteer group is hoping to bring closure to a couple of local families.

''Please Bring Me Home is looking for volunteers to help search for Luciano Trinaistich, who went missing in July 2007, and Chris Rivers, who's been missing since August 2017. The search is happening on Sunday, May 21.

“I’m just hoping for a good outcome and find closure for the family, it’s been so long,” said Natashia Pickering, Please Bring Me Home investigation team member.

Both of the cases have connections to the Murphy Road area. Over eight kilometres long, the road connects Highway 655 to Florence Street (Hallnor Road) north of the Ontario government complex, on the way to the Bell Creek Mine site.

Local volunteers have already been helping out.

For the last week, Pickering said people have been doing drone searches of the area.

“We’ve obtained over 1,150 pictures, so we’ve been going through the pictures all this week trying to pinpoint anything we can see on the ground,” she said.''


''Trinaistich was 79 years old when he went missing. He was last seen on July 24, 2007, according to Timmins Police information on missing people cases.

He was last seen leaving his residence to go blueberry picking in the Highway 655 area and his vehicle was located on July 25, 2007, on Murphy Road.

“All of the blueberry baskets were still in his vehicle when the car was found, it didn’t look like he went berry picking. And he usually leaves his keys on the back tire and makes sure that the windows are up, the windows were down, the car was unlocked, keys were in the vehicle and it just looks like he just vanished,” said Pickering.''

Volunteers in northern Ont. search for clues in two missing persons cases​

The volunteer missing persons investigation group Please Bring Me Home is in Timmins searching for two men who went missing ten years apart in the same area.

''The volunteer missing persons investigation group Please Bring Me Home (PBMH) is in Timmins searching for two men who went missing ten years apart in the same area.''

''Volunteers are scouring the bush near Murphy Road, in hopes of finding any clues as to what happened to two men who seemingly disappeared in the same wooded area.

Luciano Trinaistich went missing in July 2007 while out blueberry picking. He was 79-years-old at the time. While 44-year-old Christoper Rivers was reported missing just over a decade later in August 2017.''

''The only evidence police ever located was their abandoned vehicles.

“Chris’ car was found over there, Luciano’s was over there,” said Julie Charette with PBMH.

“Between the two was 400 feet. So, that’s why we picked this area.”

''We’re looking for bones, shallow graves, clothing, shoes, hats… keys, water bottles, anything that sparks our attention,” said Charette.''
