Rob Vicente has been missing from Davidson, Saskatchewan since October 9-10, 2010. He is from Bladworth, SK, which is 17 km north of Davidson, but he works in Davidson as a supervisor at a chemical plant. Davidson is 114 km south of Saskatoon, SK, the biggest city in the province.

His burnt out car was found October 12, 29 km west of Davidson. The buildings around the car were burnt, too. Police and cadaver dogs have been searching three properties, two belonging to the grandmother of one of the last people to see Rob alive.

"On the weekend of his disappearance, Vicente went to his uncle's house in Bladworth to watch the Saskatchewan Roughriders game on television with relatives and friends. That evening of Saturday, Oct. 9, Prpick and his wife went home at about 10 p.m. Vicente, two cousins and a friend headed to Davidson.

The events of the next several hours are unclear, but at 3:30 a.m. Sunday, Vicente and three others arrived at the Davidson Shell gas station.

Vicente appeared "drunk" but not in an unusual mood, said gas attendant Devin Tanghe. Although the group rode in Vicente's car, he and a female friend were in the back seat. Two men in the front seat got out and purchased some pop and chips, while Tanghe talked with Vicente through the car window.

Tanghe said it was clear the group, which included one man who'd spent time in prison recently, had been driving around town while drinking, a popular practice known as "booze cruising."

"I did chat with him a bit when they stopped by. He seemed happy," Tanghe said.

According to Tanghe and others, in the days following Vicente's disappearance, the man with the criminal record who had been sitting in the front seat of the car was attempting to sell an expensive car stereo system identical to Vicente's. Police have been unable to locate the man, Tanghe and others said....

Last Wednesday, three days after Vicente was last seen, farmer Kevin Ouellette and another farmer drove to a farmyard 25 kilometres west of Davidson when they saw flames in the distance. They arrived to find a burned-out vehicle, still smouldering. When they saw the flames spreading across the grass toward a stubble field, they grabbed shovels and piled dirt on the fire to extinguish it.

RCMP later confirmed it was Vicente's car.

Ouellette is at a loss to explain the car's appearance in the yard, land owned by his brother-in-law.

He said his brother-in-law doesn't know Vicente. Also, Ouellette said he was in the yard doing farm work on the Sunday afternoon after Vicente disappeared, and the car was not there at the time.

"There was no reason for it to be there. It was totalled -- it looks like someone poured gas on it," Ouellette said."

"As a result of the recent media coverage, RCMP investigators have several new leads to follow in the mysterious disappearance of Rob Vicente. The current probe has ended, but for three days this week, RCMP officers searched properties near the town of Davidson in the hopes of finding the 25-year-old's body. While police say the searches didn't reveal any physical clues, news stories prompted some people to speak to investigators about the case. RCMP say that information will be followed up and new searches will be conducted if necessary. Vicente went missing over the Thanksgiving weekend under suspicious circumstances. Late last month, during a tearful news conference with family members present, police said they believed Vicente was dead."
 
Those videos are so sad! His poor parents must miss him so much.

RCMP locate male body near Davidson, Saskatchewan
RCMP have located what appears to be the body of a male at a rural property near Davidson, Saskatchewan. RCMP had been scouring the same location in connection to the homicide of Roberto Vicente. Vicente went missing on October 10th, 2010. The body has not been positively identified and will be transported to Regina for an autopsy on Friday. The family of Roberto Vicente has been notified of the discovery.

just hours before the discovery, Darak More, 22, and Devin Schmit, 20, made their first appearance in court in Regina in connection with the case.

Both More and Schmit are accused of the first-degree murder of Vicente.

They were remanded in custody until their next court appearance March 1.

Vicente's mother Pam spoke with reporters following the appearance.

Pam Vicente – who had not yet been informed about the discovery of a body near Davidson – said outside court,
"I guess we find solace in the fact that the suspects are in custody and that we are one step closer in getting justice for Rob, but we don't feel like we thought we would…I mean, that glimmer of hope is gone."

"Just please remember: Rob was a victim of a senseless crime,"
she said.

"He was not friends with either of the suspects. He wasn't in any trouble. He was just an ordinary guy [and] had his whole life ahead of him."
 
From September 2012:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/rob-vicente-s-killers-get-life-sentences-1.1231139

Two men have pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and have been given life sentences for killing Rob Vicente in 2010. Darak Andrew More and Devin Riel Joseph Schmidt entered their pleas in a Regina court on Friday.

Court heard that More and Schmidt lured Vicente, 25, to a gas station in Davidson, Sask., a community on Highway 11 about midway between Regina and Saskatoon in the early hours of Oct. 10, 2010. The goal of the two, court heard, was to steal Vicente's car stereo system.

The three drove around the area for a time, eventually ending up in a field. Vicente had fallen asleep in the car. Court heard that after the vehicle came to a stop, the car door was opened and Schmidt shot Vicente two times in the head. The victim's body was moved to another rural area where he was shot a third time, in the back.
