About those pictures, do any of you know how the police came to the conclusion that they were only part of an art project and not related to Shannon?

I looked for information online again and it seems like all media sources just repeated the same thing. And there isn't much detail.

When you think about it, Shannon was involved with people into arts, photography, movies, etc. And she also did at least one photo shoot (there's one picture from it on her FB profile). If they weren't able to identify the woman in the pictures, could it still be her?

It's tarabully interesting ---- do they actually say it isn't Shannon in the pictures...???

...Calgary Police Spokesperson Emma Poole explained the pictures appear to be of a red headed woman, but they are obscured so you can’t tell who she is.

What they say is, the pics are not connect to her disappearance...

...UPDATE: Dec. 18, 10:00 a.m. – Police have concluded their investigation, after it was found the photos were part of an art project, and not linked to Burgess's disappearance.

above bbm

Maybe this snip below is how they drew the conclusion that "...the photos were part of an art project, and not linked to Burgess's disappearance.":
...Calgary police say the photos are currently being scanned using their new facial recognition software, purchased mainly to identify suspected criminals using mug shots, but also capable of comparing photos to a known person, like the missing woman.

"Rumours abound online, as a public weaned on television detective shows speculates over the meaning of the strange photos.

Madill says that’s all to be expected, but she does address the rumours Burgess’ estranged husband might be involved in her disappearance.

“We’re friendly with him and there’s no animosity at all — and he and my sister still get along quite well,” said Madill."

More still...

...Madill says her sister’s stage career could easily explain the photos of her, presuming the Fish Creek snapshots really are Burgess.

“There’s the possibility these were taken as part of her job, and that’s what we’re choosing to believe until we have any reason to believe otherwise,” said Madill.

But why would the photos be left on trees in a very public park?

“Maybe somebody decided to do a vigil for her or something,” said Madill.

The family’s optimism remains steadfast, even as the case grows increasingly worrisome, and certainly more strange.

We need a thread in UID for the Fish Creek UID. There are plenty of missing people in Calgary, only a select few have a thread on WS. :moo: :cow:

almost time for threads dedicated to missing by province?

CPS: "The artists did proactively came forward to us and provided the information about their project. They were very apologetic and understood that it has caused a great deal of concern."

It is a large Provincial park with vast wooded areas and water, on the border of a major city with some areas in populated residential sectors... It is prime 'dumping' ground, IYKWIM.
