Over the years in Toronto there are many unsolved murders of trade workers. These are the stories of five, so they shall not be forgotten. All had been moved from where they were last seen and strangled. These date from the mid-1980’s to the late 1990’s. Could they all be connected to one man?

17-year-old Bonnie Tarantino, a prostitute since the age of 13, left her Ulster St. home to visit friends on September 27th, 1985 - one day after getting engaged to her boyfriend - and never returned.

The unclothed body of 20 year old prostitute Susan Siegel was discovered at 7:30 in the morning December 17, 1984 alongside railroad tracks near the Ontario Public Stockyards in an industrial area of west Toronto.  

Donna Oglive was a resident of British Columbia. She has been in the Toronto area for the past five weeks. Donna had been known to travel between Vancouver and Toronto. She had been working as a prostitute in the Gerrard Street East and Church Street area of Toronto. . She was found murdered on March 8, 1998. 

The body of Lori Pinkus, was found outside Brockton High School at 90 Croatia Street in downtown Toronto on September 8, 1991.  The young woman, a high school dropout who worked as a prostitute and was addicted to drugs, had been strangled and left partially clad behind the school.

On September 9, 1990, a couple walking their dog found the body of Lyle Ford around 7:30 a.m. in Crombie Park at the Esplanade and Sherbourne St. Her clothes were dishevelled and the pants she was wearing were pulled down.

It was on Aug. 20, 1975 at around 11 p.m. 18 year-old Tracy Kundinger was walking to her family home on Monsanto Court, in Thornhill, just north of Toronto, near John and Leslie streets when her killer approached.

Tracy had worked until 10 p.m. as a lifeguard at the Ottawa Indoor Pool located at 650 Parliament Street, Toronto.

She decided to take a route that she didn’t usually take, cutting through an open space between the area’s new developments in the area of German Mills Public School at 61 Simonston Blvd. in Thornhill, near Don Mills Rd. just north of Steeles Avenue.

Tracy would end up being found murdered by strangulation with a piece of twine, possibly picked up from the immediate area due to the many tree plantings that were going on at the development site.

It was surely a horrifying scene: Two victims, a husband and wife, both found dead inside their home in a wealthy Toronto neighbourhood.

While that setting calls to mind the shocking deaths of billionaire couple Barry and Honey Sherman at their North York mansion in December 2017— it's also the circumstances of two cold case from the late 1970’s.

That of the Airst and Fagan families.

At 9:04 a.m. on the morning of Monday May 12, 1997 a 911 call was received about a body being found in a laneway at 393 Front St. East in downtown Toronto.

Upon examination it was confirmed the body was that of 21-year-old Lisa Anstey and she had been strangled. 

She had been working the streets since she was 11-years-old, the youngest many trade workers had seen. 

At the time police in and around the Greater Toronto Area had been searching for the killers of at least nine other women with links to prostitution.

Was Lisa Anstey the victim of a serial killer?

The headline 11 years ago in 2012 said it all, “Ottawa police warn of pattern in prostitute murders.” Was a serial killer targeting prostitutes?

Police Chief Vern White of Ottawa Police, in January 2012, told local workers that a serial killer may have been operating there since at least 1990.

At the time there were six unsolved murders of trade workers in Ottawa since 1990. Since then, some have been solved. I believe two may very well be connected. 

That of Melinda Sheppit and Sophie Filion.

At about 9:40 pm on August 16, 1972, Ingrid Bauer walked out of her home in Kleinburg (now the city of Vaughan, Ontario), a town about 45 kms north of downtown Toronto, to hitchhike to her boyfriend's place, in North Woodbridge. She was last seen on foot on the west side (southbound) of Islington Avenue. She was never seen again.

This episode is about three individuals who disappeared from Richmond Hill Ontario, a town about 30 minutes north of downtown Toronto within a 20 year period. 

Wendy Smith disappeared April 13, 1995 supposedly after being dropped off at the notorious Fantasisa strip joint.

Pierre Mercon disappeared on Halloween 1996.

Cheryl Rowe disappeared just before Christmas on December 22, 2011

Not a trace of any of these individuals have ever been found.

Is there a connection between these three cases?

This episode is about a  25 year old woman, who was new to Canada working as a nanny in Toronto.

She went out late one evening with friends and disappeared on her way home.

Three days later her body would be discovered over 40 kms away from where she was last seen floating naked in the Rouge River in Scarborough.

Was she a victim of serial killer Paul Bernardo or were there two killers??
