Canadian man arrested, facing extradition in Bend killing of Evelyn Weaver nearly two years ago
- Cole Nikolaus Sinclair, a 25-year-old Canadian resident, was taken into custody in Whitehorse, Yukon on December 17, 2024, related to the investigation of Evelyn Jeanette Weaver’s death in Bend, Oregon, which occurred on July 18, 2023.
- The arrest followed an extensive investigation by Bend Police after Weaver was found dead in her home, with Sinclair facing nine Deschutes County charges including three counts of first-degree murder.
- Sinclair was residing in a treatment center in Whitehorse after being deemed not criminally responsible for earlier attempted break-ins due to an untreated psychotic disorder, and during this period, he violated bail conditions by traveling outside the Yukon territory for nearly a month in July 2023.
- Bend Police have stated that there is currently no evidence to suggest that Weaver and Sinclair were acquainted, and the investigation continues to be active with support from multiple agencies.
- Sinclair remains detained in Canada awaiting an extradition hearing requested by the U.S., and he plans to oppose extradition while prosecution will proceed upon his return to Deschutes County.
