Inquiry reveals police neglected to send public warning<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vancouver deputy chief Doug LePard testified at the Missing Women Inquiry that Vancouver police received detailed tips about Robert Pickton in 1998, but refused to issue a September, 1998 public warning because high-ranking police didn\u2019t believe there was a serial killer. Family members of the missing women also testified that Vancouver police refused to take down information about their missing loved ones or even create files, particularly if they were aboriginal women on drugs. Several relatives said they gave many details to a female clerk, Sandy Cameron, only to find out that no file was ever opened. Cameron is expected to testify later in the inquiry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
