Pretty shocking case. They killed an Australian guy and her American girlfriend and another man. Apparently, they headed out east and reported to be in Manitoba by now. Funny thing is the suspects are from Port Alberni, BC which is not far from where I live. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/military-to-provide-aircraft-support-to-rcmp-search-for-b-c-homicide-suspects-1.4526228

He has schizophrenia.

Yikes! A real winner, eh?? 🙄

I know. At least lay low for awhile.

One news reports says this highway is called The Highway of Tears. Over the years there have been an unusual number of people who disappeared or were found dead along this highway. I guess the highway's remoteness attracts some bad characters.

The Highway of Tears is a section of highway 16 in British Columbia. It's called that because of the number of indigenous women who have either gone missing or been murdered in that area.

Day 11 and Canadian police STILL can't find them.

What are the temperatures up there at the moment? I know its summer there but is there any chance they can die of exposure or is it still too hot?

lets hope the polar bears got them

They think they've found their bodies.

Not really surprising considering recent developments. How long would two teenage boys survive in the wilderness without any supplies? Now hopefully there's some evidence that could definitely link them to the murders.

[–] [deleted] 6 years ago

That is good news.

Not for me. If it was my kids that were murdered, I'd want them to suffer in jail.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 6 years ago

They took the easy way out.

[–] [deleted] 6 years ago

at least they can't kill anyone else.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 6 years ago

Any idea how they may have died? I'm guessing the insects got to them. Northern Manitoba is no easy terrain!

[–] [deleted] 6 years ago

yeah, did they off themselves?

[–] Stratego (31085) 6 years ago

Apparently there are rumors they shot themselves.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 6 years ago

Did they even own guns? I think it's harder to own a gun in Canada than in USA.

[–] Stratego (31085) 6 years ago

Their alleged victims were shot dead, so I guess so.

[–] [deleted] 6 years ago

we will find out tomorrow

Interesting.

I saw the father of that Schmegelsky kid in an interview today on "60 Minutes Australia". Something seems off about him.

I was in Port Alberni (where the suspects were from) last week and everybody is talking about these murders. It's shithole town with some serious shady people. Not really surprising these two came from there.

They killed themselves with firearms. Just breaking on the news.

sad, tragic.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 6 years ago

The two boys took the cowards way out though.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 5 years ago

So, now the news has come out that the boys made videos confirming that they killed all three of their victims. So senseless.

[–] GlenEllyn (21660) 5 years ago

And I believe they had plans to kill more. I didn't read the story - just saw a headline somewhere. Sick.

[–] Eric56 (4580) 5 years ago

The scary thing is they were from Port Alberni, BC which is not far from where I live! It's a small town and I've been there and everybody is talking about the murders. Sad that such negative attention being casted on a small town on Vancouver Island.

[–] GlenEllyn (21660) 5 years ago

I know what you mean. It's frustrating and sad that one (or two) bad guys give a particular town or city a bad reputation just because it's where they grew up. Crime and sickos are everywhere.
