I always wondered about this case. I grew up in 70’s - 80’s Harundale right beside the woods that became the mall. I roamed every inch of those woods with my dogs. I was sad they were building a mall and tried to take down all the markers but they thwarted me by bolting them right to the trees. When the news told that a body had been found at the building site I got teased by my friends, asking if it were one of my boyfriends… I had sort of a mean girl reputation. It always bothered me that some poor soul was killed and left in a trash can right where I used to play with my dogs. I never saw anything odd or any disturbed areas in the woods while roaming. Weird to think he was there all that time. When reading about it, I was sure he was local.. I don’t know why. I’m glad he has been identified and we know a little about his life. I grew up working and hanging at the mall and I too got into the catwalks over top of the stores and even found my way to the roof once. I hope who ever killed that young man will come to justice someday. R.I.P. Roger.
