TORONTO — Police in Toronto have recovered the remains of at least six
people from planters on a property connected to alleged serial killer
Bruce McArthur, officials said Thursday.
Detective Sgt. Hank Idsinga said the remains, found on property McArthur
used as storage in exchange for doing the landscaping, included some from
one of the five men McArthur is already charged with killing, Andrew
Kinsman.
McArthur was arrested Jan. 18 and charged with two counts of murder in
connection with the disappearances of Kinsman and Selim Esen, two men last
seen in the “Gay Village” district of Toronto. Not long after that, he was
charged with the murders of three more men and police said they were on a
wide search for other possible victims. Police expect to file more
charges.
Investigators are still working to determine who the other alleged victims
are from the property. They haven’t determined yet if they are the same
men or other people.
Authorities have checked at least 30 other places where the landscaper was
known to have worked, including some of Toronto’s wealthiest
neighborhoods. Police have said they expect to find more remains in the
planters they’ve retrieved from around the city. Idsinga said they have
about 15 planters now, but he declined to say where they are in examining
them.
Investigators are also starting to excavate part of the lawn at the home
where the new remains were found. Police have set up a large tent and
heaters on the property to keep the ground from freezing and a forensic
anthropologist arrived at the property on Thursday. The two-story home
sits across from a park and next to small apartment buildings in an
upscale neighborhood.
Idsinga said investigators finished searching inside the house and the
garage and said the occupants of the home are free to return, but can’t go
into the backyard.
Idsinga said police have thought about excavating a second property
elsewhere, but said it might depend on what they find in that backyard.
Investigators have not yet released complete details, but the 66-year-old
McArthur is believed to have met his victims cruising around the city in
the van he used for work and on gay dating apps for older and large men
with names such as “SilverDaddies” and “Bear411.” In his SilverDaddies
profile, McArthur described himself as 5 feet 10 inches tall and 221
pounds and primarily interested in younger men. “I can be a bit shy until
I get to know you, but am a romantic at heart,” he wrote.
On his Facebook page, he posted pictures of his cats, children and
grandchildren and of himself dressed as Santa Claus.
“There is an extensive digital investigation going on,” Idsinga said.
“We’re going through computers. We’re going through cell phones. We’re
going through online applications and different apps.”
Edward Royle, a lawyer for McArthur, has declined comment on the case.
McArthur is due back in court on Feb. 14. He has yet to enter a plea.
The other three known victims are 58-year-old Majeed Kayhan, who went
missing in 2012, Soroush Marmudi, 50, who went missing in 2015 and Dean
Lisowick, who went missing between May 2016 and July 2017. Police said
Lisowick, who was in his mid-40s, was homeless, stayed in public shelters
and had not been reported missing. Kinsman, 49, went missing last June and
Esen, 44, was reported missing last April.
Police will eventually look at hundreds of missing person cases and try to
determine if they were victims of McArthur. They are also running down
tips that have come in from around the world.
“We are dealing with some agencies overseas,” Idsinga said.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
