Vancouver Pig Farmer Accused of Murdering Six Women

[Capper]

VANCOUVER — Marnie Frey called her parents for the last time on her 24th birthday. Lynn, her stepmother, answered the phone to hear Marnie giggling, wheedling for some birthday cash. Mrs Frey was reluctant, knowing that it would be spent to feed her heroin habit.

She told her daughter that a parcel was on its way, with clothes, food and toiletries, things low down on her daughter's shopping list for life on the mean streets of the Downtown Eastside, Vancouver. The thank-you call never came.

Rick and Lynn Frey would not learn what had become of their daughter until after a frantic search that lasted five years. Her remains were unearthed on a pig farm in Port Coquitlam, on the outskirts of Vancouver. The farm belonged to Robert Pickton, known as "Uncle Willie," a pig farmer well-known for the parties that he threw for prostitutes and bikers at his quasi- legal drinking club, the Piggy Palace.

Investigators dug up the remains of one woman after another, from body parts to minute traces of DNA, until the count came to 30. Four could not be identified. The other 26 were among the names of 67 women who had disappeared from the Downtown Eastside streets. On Monday Mr Pickton goes on trial for six murders, the only cases in which body parts survive.

This is old news but he's going back on trial again. He was "discovered" about two years ago. He was in the news paper this morning which I happened to have read while having my morning coffee.

It's pretty sick what some people do.

Being from Seattle, I used to go to Vancouver a lot in the mid-late 80's. I remember the stories about the missing women, and they tried to tie it to the Green River Killer that roamed Seattle for several years.........it'll be a movie within a couple years, just watch

Yeah I am from Portland. The green river killer was a big deal when I was a kid.

LOL I wasn't even born in 71. The world wasn't prepared for me to make it a better place until 73.
