This is a pretty chilling statement from the report, alluding to someone who nearly became a victim prior to Dyck's murder.

 

On July 17, 2019, at approximately 11:40 p.m., a witness was driving westbound on Alaska Highway and pulled off the road into a pullout to take a nap. This was located approximately 30 minutes west from Haines Junction Petro Canada and 2 hours 10 minutes west of Whitehorse. Within 5 minutes of being parked, a truck with camper drove past him and stopped about 50 yards ahead. An unknown male got out of the passenger side of the truck holding a long gun. The male walked towards the tree line and started moving towards the witness in a tactical or hunting stance. The truck also started driving slowly towards the witness. The witness drove away from the armed male and drove past the truck. The driver covered his face with his hand and the witness was not able to see the driver’s face. [Although the witness described the truck as being a white GMC, the time, location and male descriptions fit McLeod and Schmegelsky. The witness made the report to police on July 21, 2019.]

On July 19, 2019, at approximately 8:29 a.m., a highway worker stopped and advised the Dease Lake RCMP officer at the burnt truck scene about a deceased male he had just located approximately 2 kilometers south. The deceased was an older male and he did not match the physical descriptors of McLeod. The deceased suffered injuries to his head and body, including bruises and burn marks. Initially, the cause of death was unknown. [The police are not releasing further details of the injuries out of respect for the deceased’s family and not to further victimize them.]

 

yikes. wonder what they did to this poor man.

and this is how all the murders were tied together and to the guys:

 

McLeod and Schmegelsky were positively identified from the Meadows Lake surveillance video and were associated to a silver coloured Toyota RAV4. Leonard Dyck owned a silver Toyota RAV4. Victims from both scenes suffered gunshot wounds in similar locations and spent casings from both scenes were of 7.62 x 39mm calibre with the 101 and 75 markings on the head stamp.

 

 

 

not sure if all these burn marks on the dead means these clown tried to incinerate the victims but failed.

 

 

On July 26, 2019, search warrants were executed at McLeod and Schmegelsky’s residence in Port Alberni looking for ammunition and any planning material. There was nothing located of note regarding any pre-planning of the offences or motive.

 

On July 12, 2019, McLeod and Schmegelsky left their residence in Port Alberni, British Columbia. On the same day, they legally purchased one SKS semi-automatic rifle and a box of 20 rounds of Winchester 7.62 x 39mm ammunition using McLeod’s Possession and Acquisition License at Cabela’s in Nanaimo, BC.

 

 

 

that seems to indicate they lived together in port alberni.

^ but it says "warrants were" meaning plural. If they lived at the same address why would the police need more than one?

" residence" might be a typo and should have been residences.

[Victoria Watcher]

well it says "residence" in two parts.

 

 

search warrants were executed at McLeod and Schmegelsky’s residence in Port Alberni 

 

On July 12, 2019, McLeod and Schmegelsky left their residence in Port Alberni, British Columbia. 

 

 

the rcmp timeline makes no mention of their interaction in cold lake with the guy that towed them out of mud near the hospital.

 

but looking back at that story the timing/date/location matches.

^ Right.

This is a pretty chilling statement from the report, alluding to someone who nearly became a victim prior to Dyck's murder.

 

"The investigative theory is that McLeod and Schmegelsky came across Fowler's van and targeted Fowler and Deese for unknown reasons before continuing up into the Yukon. McLeod and Schmegelsky returned to B.C. because they were having vehicle issues and came across Dyck who they killed for unknown reasons," the RCMP report states in its conclusion.

 

While the report says the witness in the July 17 encounter described the truck as being a GMC rather than McLeod's Dodge, police say the men's descriptions matched the suspects' and the pair were confirmed to be in the area at the time.

gmc rather than dodge?  that's a fine line.  i thought it was more important that this witness described a white truck rather then red.

 

 

 

although if he only saw the back of it he'd see very little red.

A year after manhunt for teen murder suspects, some in Manitoba town are forever changed

 

 

Even after the teens' bodies were found last August less than an hour's drive from the town, he said, some in the community were still scared. As an example, he pointed to a father who had never slept apart from his wife for 20 years. But once the manhunt began and the military was called in, he started sleeping in the living room with a gun.

 

Forman said when he talked to the man about six months after the ordeal, he was still sleeping in the living room.

methinks he may be using this as an excuse now.  or his wife is.
