And this story does not even include the 107 sex trade workers murdered by
some serial killer, believed to be a cop,lawyer or judge!!


Hey Grosvenor!!

The CBC story, reprinted below, makes reference to 20 sex trade
workers slain in the Edmonton area since 1983. Care to give us a
source for the other 87 you claim were murdered?

Edmonton's murdered women
Last Updated January 4, 2007
CBC News

On May 8, 2006, RCMP in Alberta arrested Thomas Svekla and charged him
with murder in the death of Theresa Innes, 36. Police accused Svekla
of killing the sex trade worker and transporting her remains in a
hockey bag.

Early in 2007, Svekla was charged in the death of a second prostitute,
19-year-old Rachel Quinney. Police allege it was Svekla who reported
the discovery of Quinney's body in a wooded area northeast of Sherwood
Park, an Edmonton suburb, on June 11, 2004.

Svekla is now charged with two counts each of second-degree murder and
offering an indignity to a human body in the two deaths.

Since 1983, the bodies of more than 20 Edmonton women have been found.
All have been described by police as either prostitutes or women with
high-risk lifestyles.
