The victim of this homicide was actually from Peterborough. Not many people from Peterborough hanging around dépanneur parking lots in inner suburban Gatineau in the wee hours of Sunday morning.
I wonder if he wasn't actually murdered in Ottawa and his body dumped in Gatineau? Where he was found is right next to a highway exit, about 10 minutes from Ottawa.
A quick search of his name reveals several articles from 8-10 years ago from the Peterborough area with arrests and court appearances for violent crimes and robberies. He was a cocky guy too: in one of the trial articles he described himself to the judge as an "all-star" who wasn't cut out for a real job, but that his fast life (with women and other pleasures) required money, so he needed to find it somewhere...
Since this was at a dépanneur/gas bar, I had initially feared it was a robbery gone wrong and that the victim was an unlucky minimum wage dépanneur worker.
