CANADA CANADA - Shawn Cameron Lamb, Suspected SK Caught in Winnipeg MB

I wish our LE would follow their lead. Coming together to compare notes and to find connections is something all LE should be doing when there are so many unsolved cases. Here, one city or county do not have a clue what is going on in the next city or county over. They don't begin to communicate unless something comes up which clicks in an officer's mind as a rule.

I do agree with your statement, BUT Canada has something called the Young Offernders Act. That is a perfect example of making things turn from bad to worse.

ps. Yes I am Canadian...lol

IMO.
 
Certainly we live in a time where all of these cases should be entered into some national database! Then certain similarities should be easy to find... I would think.

This is the second time I've thought it would be good for us to have a forum for possible serial killers...Where we can collectively gather information and share ideas and cases. This time I'll submit my suggestion to Admin !!!!

(This stemmed from the many missing people in the Orlando area, though I'm aware that other areas such as this one are also targets for this idea).
 
Is there a serial killer stalking women in Manitoba?

Bernadette Smith thinks so.

Her sister, Claudette Osborne, vanished a year ago after walking out of a Winnipeg hotel.

The sex-trade worker had never gone three days without talking to family members. Her disappearance left behind four children; the youngest was just two weeks old.

"I believe it's true that there's somebody out there preying on those women, that they believe, because of their lifestyle, that nobody cares and that they won't be missed," Smith said. "But it's not true."

The RCMP said there's no currently no evidence to support the theory that a serial killer is responsible for the dozens of missing and murdered women in Manitoba — but they've now opened the door to the possibility.

The force has announced it will be reviewing unsolved homicides where the victim was a woman. At least one of the cases stretches back to the 1960s.

SS, I completely agree. There should be a database in the U.S. just like here in Canada, but the compliance rate for LE to enter data is something to be looked into. I think LE across Canada needs more funding so that LE in every Province can afford to have a mandatory complaince rate which would mean that all serious crimes would HAVE to be intered in the database. Then they could efficienty compare cold cases, unsolved homicides and other serious crimes and then have a better chance of solving them.

How do you feel about CODIS. I am not familiar but I will read up on it. Do all police deptartments have to enter their crimes into Codis? What is the criteria?

Here is Canada, we have the Violent Crimes Linkage Analysis System.

http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/tops-opst/viclas-salvac-eng.htm

Introduction

In the mid-1980s, following several complex, multi-jurisdictional serial homicide investigations (the Clifford Olson case being the most notable), it became apparent to Canadian law enforcement officials that a system was required to identify and track serial violent crime/criminals. The Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) Advisory Committee, comprised of the major police services across the country, agreed on the need for a central repository to capture, collate and compare violent crimes.
Major Crimes File (MCF)

Following research into the FBI’s automated case linkage system, known as the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP), the Canadian police community was presented with the Major Crimes File (MCF) as Canada’s first attempt at automated case linkage. Data relative to homicides was to be captured on “fill-in-the-blank” questionnaires by investigators in the field and then forwarded to regional analysts who would input the data. Subsequent analysis would then be based upon a query of key words and phrases, or combinations thereof.
By 1990, the MCF had approximately 800 cases on the database; however, no “hits” (linkages) had occurred and the system had acquired a less than enviable reputation as an investigative aid. Concurrent with the lack-lustre performance of the MCF, Inspector Ron MacKay, Officer-in-charge of the Violent Crime Analysis Branch at RCMP Headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario, returned from training at the FBI’s Behavioural Science Unit in Quantico, Virginia.
Insp. MacKay had spent 10 months at the Academy to acquire the training and skills necessary to become Canada’s first qualified Criminal Investigative Analyst, or “Psychological Profiler”, as it is more commonly known. Upon his return, he recognized the advantage of having an automated case linkage system that utilized some of the same behavioural principles that were applied in psychological profiling to identify and track serial violent crime/criminals.
 
ViCLAS Centres

Currently there is a ViCLAS centre in every province in Canada except for Prince Edward Island, which is served by Nova Scotia. Seven sites are maintained by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and one each maintained by the Ontario Provincial Police and the Sûreté du Québec for a total of nine centres. British Columbia handles cases from the Yukon, and Alberta handles cases from Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. The largest centre is run by the Ontario Provincial Police in Orillia. These sites perform the data entry, conduct quality reviews and await further processing and/or analysis.
The Numbers

Since the implementation of ViCLAS across the country, the database continues to swell with cases. As of April 2007, there were approximately 300,000 cases on the system and over 3,200 linkages have been made thus far.
When linkages are made between cases they are put into a “Series.” These “Series” can contain any number of linkages, depending on how many cases an offender was involved in. There are currently over 88,000 series now on ViCLAS. These numbers confirm that there are a large number of serial offenders committing crimes against people on a regular basis in Canada. Linkages are expected to increase dramatically as compliance rates (compliance rates are based on the actual number of cases being put on the system, as compared to the currently much larger number of cases that qualify as ViCLAS reportable cases) increase and many provinces make reporting mandatory, as it now is in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.


ViCLAS in Other Countries

Since the inception of ViCLAS, a number of countries have adopted ViCLAS and are using it as their violent crime linkage analysis system. In recent years, countries interested in obtaining ViCLAS must submit a very detailed business case explaining how they plan on using it.
Upon approval by the Officer in Charge of ViCLAS, the country must sign a Licencing Agreement and pay an associated annual fee based on the number of ViCLAS users which starts at $15,000 CDN.
Presently, the following countries use ViCLAS: Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Many have translated the ViCLAS questionnaire into their own language.

Does this include the numerous Canadian Native women who have been murdered over the years? There's literally been over 500 women missing or murdered in the past 20 years, i hope they get to the bottom of it!

HW OF TEARS-JACK FAMILY



Unsolved Crimes

You could have the missing piece of the puzzle that will help the RCMP put someone behind bars. Here are some recent crimes that the Prince George Crime Stoppers hopes you can solve by calling our anonymous tips line, 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
Missing - Jack Family


Date: 1989/01/08
RCMP File #: 1989-28607

It is the only case of its kind in Canada: the disappearance of an entire family. On August 1, 1989, Ronald Jack was seen at the First Litre Pub with a caucasion male, they left together. A relative later told police the man offered he and his wife, Doreen, jobs either at a logging camp or at a ranch. At 1:30 am, August 2, 1989, at the Bednesti Cluculz Lake area, Ronald phoned his mother. He said they would be gone for 10 days to 2 weeks. They were packing up some of their belongings and those of their two boys, nine year old Russell and four year old Ryan. It appeared the family had every intention of returning to their home on Strathcona Ave at some point. They have not been seen or heard from since. According to investigators, one of three things could have happened: foul play, the family simply went off the road and have not been discovered or they left voluntarily. However, they are placing greater emphasis on the first option.

Someone offered Ronald and Doreen Jack jobs. Jobs that they would need to take care of their family. They go with this caucasion male in a bar who offers jobs and then they, the entire family are never seen again!

So who offers jobs, is male, is caucasion, and is the last to see this family alive?

Serial killer the lesser of two grim evils

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/op...er-the-lesser-of-two-grim-evils-52508537.html


Which is more chilling, the notion that a serial killer is stalking Manitoba's vulnerable women or the possibility that scores of men have gotten away with murder?Forced to choose, I'd pick the serial killer. It's too monstrous to believe that dozens of our women have been killed at the hands of a pack of men, all of them secure in their belief that their victims were disposable.
 
Trucker-serial killer link being scutinized

Is a serial killer prowling Alberta's highways and truck stops?

*snip

The FBI is putting the trucking industry in the U. S. under a microscope. Since launching its Highway Serial Killings Intitiative, the bureau has arrested 10 people in connection with 30 killings, including one trucker from Tennessee who was charged with four counts of murder.

So far, the FBI has created a database of 500 victims a whose bodies have been found on or near major trucking routes cross the U. S. -- and a list of 200 potential suspects.
