Hi Miss A!!! Wow, glad to hear from you. Yes, I am bothered by the lack of anything even if they would just confirm that in fact another serial killer(s) is out there. Something or anything. It's a year until his trial, in the meantime spring is here and that I think is when they start finding bodies.
Kare has adamantly stated that they have frequently said they believe there are more than one killer responsible for the murders of women in Edmonton. I'll try and find the most recent quote, I think it was made when Svekla was charged with Rachel's murder. Svekla might be responsible for Rachel, as well as Melissa Munch and Monique Pitre. The guy who was storing cars for Svekla said there were three names on the warrant and one of them was Rachel's.
We talked before about Svekla possibly freezing Innes' body months earlier and had to move her at the time he did because the temperatures were rising quickly in High Level at the time. Svekla's sister opened the bag because she thought it was dirty laundry that was beginning to smell. Theresa may have been murdered within the last two days prior to Svekla coming to Edmonton, but the bag was seen in the back of that truck prior - through the freezing winter of 2005-2006.
It's hard for me to decide if Svekla acted alone in Theresa and Rachel's murders, or if he's part of a bigger circle of people. Maybe there are four or five out there preying on women in BC, AB, SK and MB. I do feel certain Kare are looking for more than one killer. It is conceivable that 1/2 of the Kare cases are committed by people who only commit one murder each. This is a stat in Vancouver and I am only assuming the same could be true for Edmonton.
I read Kare is looking at 42 murder cases. The remainder are missing people.They go back far but there are very few before 1970 compared to the many, many since.
I feel there is more than one killer who has killed more than one person. I feel they are acutely aware of each other but may have never met. I feel one killer is actually a set of three. I also feel at least one of them murders outside Alberta. I feel another may have been active for over 30 years. These are just my feelings. I may have been looking at my database waaayyyyy tooo looonnnnggg!
Also, here's a link to an article talking of the psychic Alan Hatfield that went to Rachel's murder site in the summer of 2005 and claims to have captured a male spirit on tape saying the word "Tom". The claim was made I believe after the Sun reported that Svekla discovered Rachel's body in 2004. So while in June 2006 Hatfield was aware of Svekla's involvement in Rachel's death, he claims he heard the name "Tom" the year prior to anyone knowing about Svekla's involvement with Rachel. An EPS officer was present at the 2006 session.
Hatfield feels there are four of them with one acting as the "dumping guy." This theory makes sense in terms of my own poi(s)
http://www.lastlinkontheleft.com/e2004quinney.htmlWhat I really find a shame is that police had to have suspected Svekla from the get-go and it was only when he was arrested for Theresa's murder did a dna sample get ordered. And that was for a completely unrelated, yet violent, matter. But there appears no other dna matches. The trial is a year away. Perhaps more charges will be laid against Svekla. If they lable him a serial killer, perhaps they can charge him with first degree murder, showing his killings are planned and they are sexual in nature.
I think experts have said there is a sexual sadistic element to some of the murders. I still don't get why he's charged with 2nd degree. They must have something more coming.
I wonder if the new team leader at Kare replaced Inspector Sekela?
