In our last episode we heard of the murder of eleven-year-old Kathryn-Mary Herbert in Abbotsford, B.C. The 1975 murder went unsolved for nearly 40 years.  Less than a year after Kathryn-Mary was killed, another girl from Abbotsford, Theresa Hildebrandt, 15, also went missing. Her body turned up in 1980, she’d been murdered. Two years after that and more than 200 kilometres from Abbotsford, another girl, Monica Jack, 12, went bike riding near Merritt, B.C. and was never again seen alive. Her remains were not found until 1995 near Nicola Lake, she too had been murdered.  Police believed that all three murders were connected. They had only circumstantial evidence on one suspect they presumed had committed all three killings.  Sources: 2015 BCSC 1023 (CanLII) | R. v Handlen | CanLII 2018 BCSC 1330 (CanLII) | R. v Handlen | CanLII 2022 BCCA 304 (CanLII) | R. v.
