Still Missing Canada - Taylor Samson, 22, Halifax, NS, 15 Aug 2015 *Retrial 2023 Guilty*

[Satchie]

Sorry if I am being a little slow, but I don't understand what is meant by "same person" or "two people with the same name"?

Referring to another incident at Dal Medical school, not apparently related to this case. Medical student Stephen Tynes, accused of animal abuse, now barred for uttering threats.

Dalhousie seems to have bad luck with their medical/dental students.

I'm having a hard time feeling sympathy for an aspiring doctor who even takes drugs, much less deals them and somehow murders a dealer/friend.

I agree with you Satchie even though I had wanted to see him do well. If he was dealing drugs illegally, he might have done the same thing with writing prescriptions for narcotics as a doctor which would have been a serious abuse of the profession. If it turns out that he is innocent of the murder, I would still not want to see him in medical school.

Medical student at Dalhousie was suspended due to uttering threats. This is the same person who faced charges last year for animal cruelty. Tynes is from Truro, NS.

I wonder, with WS's connection to sports/wanting to be a sports doctor, lots of a different kind of drug use in that field. Maybe his aspirations were not to heal but to...

Tynes is originally from Truro, NS and that is where the animal abuse incident happened. Sandeson is originally from Truro, NS.

Ladybug......were Tynes and WS friends?

 

[Satchie]

Tynes is 30, WS is 22. That's a big difference at that age.

Very true ! I thought maybe they were in the same classes at Dal.

I think since they were both medical students at Dal that they very well may have known each other. They also are both from the Truro area originally.

Although you can't see much on WS facebook profile that is up, you can get a bit more info from the cache of his old fb. You can see friends list, groups etc.

"Ladybug......were Tynes and WS friends?"

No idea. Will was my personal trainer so we had a professional relationship. His prof/academic mentor is a good friend of mine, but she also had a professional relationship with him. My colleague at work and my friend's brother were both runners who knew him from track. That's the extent of my association.

So, if one were to view the inside of Will's apartment, what things should one look for?

Whether there is still furniture inside - like couch, chair, bed(s), carpet and evidence of luminol being used. Also whether any parts of any walls have been removed - for evidence purposes.

Do you think the bags that were covered with a sheet ,contained blood stained stuffing? I think TS was taken out in a hollowed mattress or couch.That would require a truck.Did Will own a truck? If not,others were involved .Will could not carry a couch or mattress by himself.

No I think any blood stained anything would have been taken for evidence. I think the bags of stuffing (even the covered ones) are a result of police or somebody looking for drugs that they thought had been hidden. The students are always up to something so to see somebody lumped into a big shopping cart, strapped to a dolly or something else absurd would/could possibly be taken as a 'gag'.

There is no way Will could have moved TS alone - there had to have been at least two good sized individuals to remove TS from the apartment - there were stairs to negotiate as well.

Wish there was more information.

 

[elepher50]

Just thought of this.

It has been reported that Taylor left his place of residence with just his cell phone and the duffel bag with alleged four pounds of weed.

There have been no reports of Taylor's cell phone being found. Wondering if that may be what the police found in the apartment on Henry Street. Maybe Taylor had the phone recording.

 

[cvaldez1975]

why would one go into so much debt and waste that much time at school if their only aspiration was to deal drugs?

I wonder, with WS's connection to sports/wanting to be a sports doctor, lots of a different kind of drug use in that field. Maybe his aspirations were not to heal but to...

 

[Divinesun]

My understanding was that he just did not take his cell phone....meaning he left it at his apartment. I am thinking the police went through his phone, and found texts between him and WS about the meeting time, etc....which would have led them to WS's apartment.
