The Highway of Tears; BRITISH COLUMBIA Part 3
The RCMP announced in November 2014 that a 67 year old man had been charged with the first degree murder of the Highway of Tears youngest victim, 12 year old Monica Jack. At the same press conference, they also announced he was being charged with the first degree murder of another young victim who wasn’t named as a highway of tears victim, but whose case is equally as important to the telling of today’s story. If you have any information regarding these cases, you are encouraged to call the Project E-Pana tip line at 1-877-543-4822 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477. -K&O Rate, Review and Subscribe on the platforms of your choice.
