Well, I did some digging and did not find much info that isn't already here.
As identified in other posts, this case was linked to an attack in London based on similarities of the crime and the demographics of the two Cities. A profile was developed with the linkage in mind.
The attacker, either in his 20s or 30s, is likely a hot-tempered, lower-income, white man who has a history of violence toward women.
It is unclear if viable DNA was collected, and what collection and testing techniques were employed in each case.
With not a whole lot of new info if any, I went about looking at the case through different lens. I mapped significant places for each case to see what it looked like geographically (as the police indicated that there was some similarities.)
The biggest thing that popped out at me was that there were Stream Global Services (Concentrix) call centres relatively close to each incident. There were also Colleges near by, and both towns have a Military Airbase connection although I think the London airbase is closed. (See Maps)
My gut tells me there may very well be a connection to the call centres. There may also be a loose connection to the Military? I also noticed that public transit may be a factor as both locations were on transit routes to and from the call centres, the colleges, and pass by Military facilities. I am not so sure about the colleges because I would expect call centres to colleges to recruit minimum wage workers. Then again, locating yourself to a college would not be unexpected from a sexual predator.
Another disturbing incident was a stabbing homicide on an 8th wing Housing complex that I suspect was very close to the area that KATHLEEN MACVICAR was found. (although I am not 100% sure where it was) As far as I know, the homicide did not include a sexual element, it was a violent stabbing committed by a perpetrator that could fit the profile developed. I wasn't able to find a whole lot of information related to this crime other than Marcus Wilson committed a stabbing murder of his male roommate in the same area in 2009.

Again my gut tells me that the perpetrator was an employee or trainee of Stream Global Services (Concentrix). Had business or was transferred/rehired in between Belleville/Trenton and London. He is from a Military family and still has connections to Military personnel. He utilizes and/or stalks public transit, walking paths, and possibly in the area of colleges. He was either in his 20s or 30s, is likely a hot-tempered, lower-income, white man who has a history of violence toward women.
But what do I know. I am just a disabled old fart who has too much time on his hands, spends too much time on the computer and tv watching real life detective shows.
But this old fart would like to see the police do the following if it is legally possible:
- Use modern techniques to look for trace DNA
- Utilise genealogical DNA databases to determine possible familial matches or at least get info on ancestry makup
- Utilise the Military DNA databases to determine possible familial matches
- Look into employee/trainee records for possible connections between the two call centre locations
- Obtain Cell Phone Dumps for towers in the area of both incidents on the respective dates, looking for matching cell phone registrants, not imei as too any people upgrade phones often
-Look into Marcus Wilson as a person of interest.
Best I got so far. Hope this rattles some minds to seek further information and evidence.
