Highway 16, The Questions Linger

By Ben Meisner

If the Wally Oppal inquiry into the Murdered and Missing Women,  which  includes a look at the so called "highway of tears" is to get some much needed back ground as to what has taken place along this stretch of pavement, there will need to be a meeting with the RCMP to have an inside look.

From all accounts and information that Opinion250 has been able to obtain over the past half dozen years, there could be upwards of six people who were involved independently in the deaths of numerous women. It is important as well to add into the mix, the missing Jack family, that is the family of four, Russell Jack, his wife Doreen, and their two children aged nine and four who simply disappeared off the map after accepting a job near Bednesti Lake.

Their disappearance has been tied together with the disappearance  of Nichole Hoar and Alisha Germaine who also disappeared close to Prince George.

An investigation by police of a rural property west of Prince George, failed to turn up any clues into their disappearance but rumours abound that the three missing persons file could be connected. In these cases police have suggested quietly that the person of interest is already serving a lengthy term in jail.

If you also bring into play the deaths of a number of the other women, the police believe that from their investigation, at least two of the deaths are believed to have been committed by two different people.

For some time, investigators had begun to wonder whether someone who was travelling along highway 16 was responsible, that theory has long ago been dispelled as they say again privately that they think they know who committed the murders in a few different instances proving the matter is a very difficult task.

That is reason alone for Oppal to be able to sit down with police in a private meeting and get the information for the families involved. That in itself would go a long way in bringing closure to some families.

I’m Meisner and that’s one man’s opinion.
