I just read missingpeople (thanks star) and it states there is a publication ban on the case. Why?

Found another article:Canada Pig Farmer Now Faces 22 Murder Charges
This sounds mighty gruesome:

NEW WESTMINSTER, British Columbia (Reuters) - Seven new murder charges will be filed against Robert Pickton, the pig farmer feared linked to the disappearance of more than 50 Vancouver area prostitutes over the past decade, prosecutors said on Monday.
The charges bring to 22 the number of first degree murder counts against Pickton, and an official refused to speculate if additional counts will be added as laboratories continue to analyze evidence collected in a 21-month search of Pickton's property. . . .

ickton, 54, is accused of being the deadliest serial killer in Canadian history. He has not entered a plea to the criminal charges, but denied any connection with the missing women in a related civil lawsuit. . . .

court order prohibits publishing details of the evidence until his trial, which is not expected to begin until September 2004 at the earliest.

All of the women Pickton is accused of killing were drug addicted prostitutes who disappeared without a trace from Vancouver's poor Downtown Eastside neighborhood.

Police raided Pickton's ramshackle farm in the Vancouver suburb of Port Coquitlam in February 2002, and it took crews of archeology specialists until last month to complete their digging up of the 10-acre farm property.

Prosecutors said laboratories are not expected to complete their initial DNA analysis of all evidence collected from the farm until June 2004, although they have begun to use special robotic equipment to handle the material.

thanks victim. that was very interesting.

strange how there are poeple out there that don't believe them to be guilty at all. i don['t get how all these dead bodies (and parts) are found there if they didn't do it. I wonder if they have any dna or hard evidence that links these 2 brothers to the dead bodies found scattered on the farm.

are they still to this day digging around that farm for evidence?

Toronto Journalist Stevie Cameron has written a book on Willy Pickton and the women he murdered.

Robert Pickton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Robert William "Willie" Pickton (born 1950) is a pig farmer from the city of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada who has been charged with the first degree murders of 27 women, and is implicated, as of January 28, 2004 in the murders of up to 31 women, many of them prostitutes from the Downtown Eastside district of the city of Vancouver. The government has indicated it plans to bring at least 7 more murder charges against him in the coming year, and new DNA evidence continues to be unearthed at his farm. Pickton was first arrested in February 2002.

[edit]
Background
Pickton and his brother David Francis Pickton ran a registered charity called the Piggy Palace Good Times Society, a non-profit society whose official mandate was to "organize, co-ordinate, manage and operate special events, functions, dances, shows and exhibitions on behalf of service organizations, sports organizations and other worthy groups." According to investigators, the "special events" convened at Piggy Palace — a converted building at the hog farm — were "drunken raves that featured 'entertainment' by an ever-changing cast of Downtown Eastside prostitutes."

Pickton first came to the attention of police in 1997 when he was charged with attempted murder. The charges were subsequently dropped. Later, police would search the farm, but found nothing.

In February of 2002 police again searched the farm, this time uncovering DNA evidence matching that of a missing woman. Pickton was arrested on February 22, charged with two counts of first-degree murder. Three months later 3 more charges were added, and shortly after that a sixth and seventh. In October, 4 more charges were added, bringing the total to 15, and again in May 2005 12 more charges were added, bringing the total to 27.

Excavations at the pig farm are ongoing. Forensic analysis is very difficult because the alleged victims may have been left to decompose or their bodies were eaten by insects and pigs in the farm. During the early days of the excavations forensic anthropologists brought in large construction machinery, conveyor belts, and soil sifters to find traces of remains. On March 10, 2004, details were revealed that human flesh of Pickton's victims may have been ground up and mixed with pork from the farm. That pork was never distributed commercially, but was handed out to friends and visitors of the farm.

Pickton is emerging as Canada's most prolific serial killer. His trial is expected to start in late 2004. He is suspected of murdering many of the 69 women who have disappeared from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside in recent years.

OMG!! they believe that he ground up human flesh, mixed it with pig meat and served that to his friends and guests? OMG!! that is disgusting. he's got to be a cannibal too because if he served that to his friends and guests, chances are he ate the same thing they did. that's so gross! The guy is twisted to say the least.

so the earliest year they have for a victim is 1995. i wonder if this is when he started his rampage or if there might be some victims that have yet to be identified and this goes back even further. wow! this case is very interesting.
