On July 28, the RCMP announced that they had found the remains of Corrie Renee Ottenbreit along with the remains of Delores Brower. Brower was discovered April 19, 2015, near Leduc. Ottenbreit had been the subject of a missing person’s investigation since July 2004. Her death is considered a homicide and the investigation falls under the RCMP Historical Homicide Unit as well as KARE. Ottenbreit, 27, lived in Edmonton and was a known sex-trade worker in northeast Edmonton. Brower’s and Ottenbreit’s remains were found within a five mile radius of where the remains of Katie Sylvia Ballantyne were found in July 2003 and the remains of Amber Tuccaro were found in September 2012. Insp. Stacey Talbot, of the Alberta RCMP Serious Crimes Branch, says as the remains of the four women were found within eight kilometres of each other, police may be dealing with a serial predator.
