I just saw this tweet and whatever you believe about the evidence, thought it quite poignant.

Just thought of something, perhaps it wasn't necessary for them to do the connection to the Mt. Forest Chapter because his attorney already admitted the accused child killer was there.:twocents:

If they can prove that Rafferty was really familiar with the area or "partied" there in the past, they can make a connection to the fact that he looked for a familiar succluded area to do the deed.:detective::dervish::moo:
 
@Meghan - yes, it's possible.

#Rafferty trial to hear testimony from friends of the accused this morning.
 
Thank you to all that helped build the list of his "girlfriends" as well as clarifying that I wasn't the only one who missed the Mt. Forest chapter.

Just to recap Swedie's post from the previous thread - here are the current list of "girlfriends" which I'm sure will grow.

Women MR was involved with around the time of Tori's death

-TL McClintic - 21, GF helped MR abduct Tori for alleged sexual/nefarious purposes.

-A. Lane - met MR in grade six and reconnect in 2009 through FB

- Miss WS - GF at the time of his arrest. Dated for five to six weeks.

-J. Wood - woman known to MR. She was in her Honda in GLF parking lot day of his arrest. Her car also seized by LE.

-Amanda - MR admitted to LE during taped interview May 15/09, he dated her a few times. MR claimed Amanda was a friend of TM and her daughter a friend to Tori.

-Kate - MR spoke about Kate (not real name), would not tell LE her real name.

-B. Armstrong - ex lover, met at BBeef/work, had girly talks with MR, supplied oxy drugs numerous times to MR including the day Tori was murdered.

-Miss Unknown (Pub ban) - 37, MR met her on POF April 12/09, MR told her about TLM in detention centre being questioned about Tori's abduction.

-S. Hodge - 31, C&Y worker MR met on POF April 14/09, saw each other every day for two and a half weeks. Said he was a dance instructor. She mostly drove them around, MR on phone setting up dance appointments. MR told her he took oxy, he thought he had colon cancer. MR spoke to her about people abducting children raising them as their own. Obsessed with Tori's case listening to news and reading newspaper.

-T. Moore aka Tam Tam, met MR on Yahoo 2003. MR bought car in 2007 from used car lot in TO. Noticed May 9/09 back seat and rear carpet missing from MR's car.

-M. LaBute, MR met her at her workplace Staples March 09, saying he was new in town. She told MR she wasn't interested, described MR as nervous and needy. Spent a lot of time on phone keeping track of his workers claiming to own contracting business.

Rafferty asked her to go to a stag and doe with him near the Hamilton area. She accepted. This was in early May.
 
Steven D'Souza ‏ @cbcsteve
Around the end of April, 2009 she met Rafferty online via dating website Plenty of Fish #sl

Steven D'Souza ‏ @cbcsteve
Ashley Reid first on stand. She's a bundle of nerves on the stand, her voice shaky before she even swears the oath #sl

Steven D'Souza ‏ @cbcsteve
Court set to resume at #Rafferty trial. Court to hear from Rafferty's friends, testifying about comments made after Tori's disappearance #sl
 
I feel terrible for these women who so innocently met MTR and now have been brought into this. I can't imagine how they must be feeling.
 
Rafferty played with her cat while she got ready to go to the stag and doe.

They discussed jobs on the car ride to the stag and doe. Told her he had a contracting business, and working at a juvenile centre.

RaffertyLFP: Rafferty picked up Reid at her apartment She said usual small talk He claimed he worked at juvenile detention centre on Oxford St
 
Avery Moore ‏ @AveryFreeFMNews
Reid went to a stag & doe with #Rafferty near Hamilton, about 10 days before his arrest.


Steven D'Souza ‏ @cbcsteve
Reid, first met #Rafferty in person at a Stag and Doe, about a week before his arrest. #sl
 
She describes it as "kind of like a jail for young offenders".

RaffertyLFP: Reid said Rafferty claimed he was working with 17 year old girl who was in trouble with drugs - wanted to help her

RaffertyLFP: Reid said Rafferty did not mention the girl's name

Rafferty pointed a centre out he was working at, in London. Mentioned working with a 17-18 y/o girl. Said her details were "confidential"
