KeepingFaith; there is not a day goes by that I don't pray for justice and closure for those grieving the loss of a loved one - taken by such vicious people as those responsible for Derek's disappearance and death.  I have been quiety watching this thread and praying there was a possibility Derek was alive somehow, somewhere.  This is so very disturbing .... so many could help to unravel this awful mystery...yet choose not to.  :'(  I wish they would realize that they will suffer for this.  I firmly believe, and have seen it prevail - What goes around, comes around!
Very sincere sympathy for what you are going through, is extended to you from myself and my family.  I will keep your family close in my thoughts and prayers.  It has become a "way of life" for my family ....hoping and praying for justice in these situations.

The people involved now know Derek Kelly's disappearance is now being investigated as a murder.
They can no longer hide behind the idea that no one knows what happened to Derek.
I hope they shake in their boots every second of the day knowing that at any time the police will come knocking
at their door. The police will hunt them down and find them wherever they are and question them again.

100 Mile House should be aware that someone was murdered in their community and all the people who were there
at that cabin are possible murderers. Anyone who knows anyone that was at that cabin should put pressure on them
to come forward with information.
No matter how scared they are, they can give information through Crime Stoppers.
This is a first degree murder, a planned and conspired murder, it seems with many people involved or in the know.

Holy smamoly!!!! What on earth is going on with all these missing men!!!? It certainly boggles the mind,  :o  so many in one area. How can that be? And what does our finest have to say about that? I'm beginning to think that there are more uncaptured murderer's in Canada then there are captured. I vote they fire some of those finest butts and replace them with us posters. We'll sling those murdering butts in jail in no time. The only downfall is the Judge's would let those butts walk out the door behind us. Excuse me..I'm wrong, they would walk out the door in front of us.

Very sad news that this young man has been found deceased. It's been more than two years since Gavin went missing so at least now his family finally knows what happened to him. They can begin the long and difficult process of healing. I wish them peace.

I'm glad the family have Gavin to lay to rest.   :'( Somehow, I would like to think they have definite confidence there was no foul play;  It hurts to see so many young lifes lost prematurely.

Family wants answers four years after teen went missing
 
An open bedroom window and strange text messages among the clues in the disappearance of 17-year-old W.J. Mouat student
 
By Kim Bolan, Vancouver SunMarch 31, 2010

Abbotsford mom Kashmir Sidhu is desperate to know what happened to her teenage son Munny, who vanished four years ago Tuesday.

"It is so hard for me," Sidhu said in an interview. "I want to know where he is."

She said she can't even hold a funeral because she doesn't know if Munny is dead of alive.

He was a 17-year-old Grade 12 student at W.J. Mouat secondary school when he disappeared on March 30, 2006.

His family last saw him going to his second-floor bedroom. In the morning, he was gone and the bedroom window was open.

Abbotsford police are looking for any leads that might help the investigation and provide answers to the family, Const. Ian MacDonald said Tuesday.

MacDonald described the missing man as Indo-Canadian, 5-foot-11, 150-160 pounds with a shaved head. He was last seen wearing a brown hoodiestyle jacket, with "Carolina Tar Heels" written on the front, and blue jeans.

His brother AJ fears the worst, but still hopes he will see his younger sibling again some day. "In logic, I know there is a slim chance that he is alive," AJ Sidhu said. "That would be the best news in the world to have him come back."

But AJ at least wants closure for his devastated family. His mother still can't be left alone because of the traumatic loss. "She prays three times a day," said AJ, the 31-year-old owner of Thuggish Records.

He said Munny was excited about graduating from high school and wanted to produce a rap album. He loved to write and perform, AJ said. He never would have given up those dreams voluntarily. "He was very excited about those sorts of things. He was excited to rent a car. He was excited to go to [the] prom," AJ said.

Asked if his brother might have had a conflict with an area gang, AJ said he highly doubted it. "I would just randomly check his room. There was nothing ever," AJ said. "He never even had five dollars. He would always have to ask my mom and dad for money."

Two other Mouat Grade 12 students were slain last year in a still-unsolved double shooting. Police have said the teens had begun selling drugs at the street level for the Red Scorpion gang. AJ said he didn't think his brother knew the Mouat students -- Joseph Randay and Dilshir Gill -- who were killed.

"They were younger than my brother," he said.

But AJ himself has Facebook friends in common with the two students killed last year, including Sunny Ahuja, an associate of the Bacon brothers.

AJ said he believes some of his brother's friends must know what happened to the teen.

The day after Munny vanished, strange text messages were sent from his phone claiming he was going to India. But he never took any identification, cash or even his glasses with him, AJ said.

"Maybe he is gone. But without answers, only God knows," AJ said. "Every time bodies or body parts are showing up, we are just holding our guts."

Police said at the time that Munny was seen on a surveillance video at Abbotsford International Airport on April 11, 2006 -- days after he went missing. But AJ said the whole family viewed the video over and over and do not believe it was Munny.

He is hopeful police will make progress on the file now that they have assigned two new detectives. Anyone with information should contact Det. Wanda Lane of the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-864-4748.

"Maybe after four years we hope somebody just has the heart to come forward and say where he is," AJ said. "We want closure."

Just a theory I have heard more than once about all these young men.

A racist gang ritual that involves the murder of a young white man to pass some level of acceptance by the gang.

Some awful heavy gang activity in this province during the period that these young men have disappeared.

One thing so many have in common is they were at a bar alone when last seen, or in the area. Targeted, when most vulnerable? May be using an attractive female for bait.

This is not my theory, but I have heard it and read it elsewhere. It does need to be considered.
