Default 4 calgary murders linked to American serial killer

Surprised no thread on this as this is pretty big news.

Good work for the family of the victims even if he is dead.

So...the women were murdered in the 70s...the killer died in Jail in 2011.

And...they're telling us this now?

I dont really think this is a huge 'slam dunk win' for Law Enforcement.

I suspect they the sharing of information between US and Canadian law enforcement is probably why this took so long.

We should be sharing DNA samples for all serious crimes, if we’re not already.

I'd imagine this is bitter sweet. Great to have closure and find the killer. I'd be pretty disappointed that the guy remained free for so much time and kept victimizing more women until then.

Calgary police has been doing good work going back through cold cases.
My ex-wife was close friends with Adrienne McCool.
Everyone knew that her boyfriend did it. But they couldn't prove it. Until technology advanced. And then they went and got the MFer.

The closure it offers families cannot be under-stated. It allowed everyone in her life to move on finally.
