Police have done their final sweep of the Liknes home and have released it to the family. Police tape is now down. They say they have nothing else they can do at the home.

Looking pretty bleak now.

The only lead they had is obviously a dead end.

Garland has been arrested again, this time apparently in connection with the missing persons case.

[psicodude]

Yup.

Details are weak at this point but one twitter feed is saying that the arrest is a result of some sort of altercation or incident at the hotel/motel he was staying at. Some twitter feeds are saying it is in relation to the missing persons.

Too early to tell what is going on at this point.

Hopefully it leads to new info and wasn't just some random person and him getting into a fight.

One report on Twitter is stating Garland was re-arrested for breaching probation as he returned to the farm after his release and was not staying at a motel/hotel/halfway house as per his bail conditions.

Edit: Confirmed he was arrested in Airdrie, asked to leave motel: http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/douglas...alta-1.1913168

Garland, 54, was arrested in Airdrie, Alta., on Monday, sometime after he was asked to leave a local hotel, CTV News has learned. Garland had been staying at the hotel as part of bail conditions stemming from an unrelated charge. It is unclear whether he is facing new charges, or why he was arrested.

He is now being questioned DIRECTLY in the missing persons case:

Global Calgary ‏@GlobalCalgary 50s
UPDATE: Global News has learned Douglas Garland is being questioned in direct connection to the missing persons case. http://bit.ly/1wmaEOS

The Global article mentions he was staying in an Airdrie hotel upon making bail:

He was given a curfew of 9 p.m. to 7 a.m., and told he must not leave the province and cannot possess a passport. It’s believed he was staying at an Airdrie hotel following his release.

Can't imagine this is good news.

Isn't that the second time that has happened? Perhaps it's the same scenario where they're just starting another one?

As per a family member of theirs, the bodies have been found. Unfortunately they're all deceased. I'm not comfortable giving any more info than that, sorry.
