''Heys was a loner, who didn’t have a girlfriend, maybe there was a drug problem. He did a 90-day stint in rehab at the Clarke Institute of Psychiatry, the predecessor to CAMH.
The Queen St. W. institution would be one of the last places George Heys would be seen.
“He was playing volleyball at the institute and one of the nurses came in and said ‘George, you can’t be in here. You’re not a patient anymore,” Jones told the News Now. “And then Nov. 28, gone, just gone.”
“My grandparents died without knowing what happened,” Kimberly Heys said in 2020.
As to what happened that November day, no one is really sure about that either. Maybe it was suicide. Maybe it was murder.
“Maybe he was murdered because he owed someone money. My dad didn’t know. Was he gay?” Heys said. “We did not know any of that.”
On Tuesday, an exhausted Kimberly Heys once more emailed the Oswego DA Oakes.
“
To this date, my Aunt Dolores (Jones) [and other family members] and I continue to wait day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to-month, YEAR-TO-YEAR without answers,” Heys wrote.
“Yet we all believe that the remains of the person who washed up on the Syracuse side of Lake Ontario four months after ‘Georgie’s’ disappearance are, in fact, that of my Uncle. Here we are approaching 2023 …”
She added: “When people watch TV/movies they are/we are led to believe that it is important to law enforcement and others in the mix to solve missing persons cases. We are certainly not seeing ANY amount of urgency being given to this situation, Sir.”
