On July 16th, 1994, ten-year-old Marie-Chantale Desjardins left her home in Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada at around nine-thirty a.m. on her bicycle. She was heading to a friend’s house, but when she arrived, her friend was getting ready to leave, so Marie decided she’d find something else to do.
According to witnesses, she spent some time at a local snack bar that she frequented; several people said they’d seen her there for most of the day. From about three to five-thirty p.m., she was with another friend, but at some point after they parted, she completely vanished.
Her panicked mother reported her disappearance, and for four days, authorities searched high and low for the elementary school student. Tragically, though, on July 20th, her body was discovered in the woods behind the Place Rosemère shopping center.
Nearly thirty years later, police seem no closer to finding the little girl’s killer.
