Amber Alert for Calgary boy, 5, who was last seen with grandparents
- Thread starter Sal
- Start date
yes, it would appear as though they are frantic and really have no lead that is promising
It's good to see they are keeping an open mind in the matter, the last thing we need is another David Milgaard debacle. Identity theft is a far cry from murder, assault or kidnapping. What percentage of trucks are green 10%, 15%?
I'm afraid to open new articles on the subject because I believe it's only a matter of time until I read "...bodies found"
The man deemed a “person of interest” in the week-long disappearance of a little Calgary boy and his grandparents has had sporadic but persistent trouble with authority for much of his life.
Documents from June of 2000 were released Tuesday by the Parole Board of Canada (formerly the National Parole Board) about Douglas Robert Garland, who was then serving time for narcotics offences stemming from a drug lab bust on his parents’ acreage in rural Airdrie, near Calgary, eight years earlier.
Under an “accelerated parole review” program, which no longer exists, Mr. Garland was eligible for parole after serving just a sixth of his 39-month sentence.
It appears he was released some time after the June 19, 2000 decision and a follow-up one in October that year.
But the documents also refer to several criminal charges for violence Mr. Garland once faced, a two-decades long record for property offences and ongoing “mental health concerns.”

Alive or dead is an unknown. No one knows except those involved.
This is not a case of a single missing person where they can vanish into the streets or country side. Two senior adults and a young child do not vanish into thin air. With the added circumstance of someone in medical distress at the scene, it would not appear as though they fled. IF they fled together as a threesome, what vehicle did they use? The reports say nothing of family vehicles, thus they must have been transported.
Who transported them?
Why have the public not been included in the search grids?
Why are they interested in speaking with the public about what they purchased at the estate sale?
Something has been taken or is missing, something significant that they are not telling us.
Give me a pausible scenario where they are still alive.
Who is caring for them if they are alive? Food no problem but no water over this length of time can only mean one thing.

I'm in the dark same as you, Sal. One point I possibly can shed light on is why the public isn't involved in the search. They would probably need more supervision than the benefit would be worth. Also there's always the chance of getting one "rotten apple" who sabotage the operation. Did you mean "possible" or "plausible"? I can't think of a scenario off hand, other than the situation isn't what everyone thinks. I think you've alluded to the reason they may not be dead.
the public is always involved in grid searches when searching for the missing...there is never enough man power and time to not use public assistance...hell they even use adolescents, every available person in the community is used ...here they have ten units of police...ten...and no public involvement...
they have removed items of interest, my guess would be the items were from the estate
thus they are looking for evidence and they are where they need to be but he could have dropped those bodies in a radius that is simply massive
Having SAR teams trampling a crime scene is pointless. They aren't alive. They'd just destroy evidence.
