I would like to discuss the series of murders that have come to be known as the "Highway Of Tears" murders. The saddest part of these crimes it that
they have not been properly investigated.
Lately there has been enormous pressure by concerned citizens to do something about the crimes, and to get to the bottom of them. The citizens have
every right to be concerned. Recently the amount of possibly linked murders
doubled thanks to more thorough investigation.

Sadly because these crimes have not been investigated enough (in my opinion) there is very little information to go on. I think the ATS members can
change that. We have the brains behind the keyboards to make connections.
