Pitch Pine Murders Mississauga Ontario suspicious death investigators murder

patreon.com/darktopic for exclusives.

From 2009 through 2013, Pitch Pine Crescent of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, would be visited by investigators reviewing a sudden, suspicious death. It wasn’t the streets fault, it was the nicest house of the affluent area that continued to summon investigators. Three calls of potential murder was what it took  to finally send the message that something was very wrong here.
