Ontario Suspect with Connections to Fraser Valley Facing 1st-Degree Murder Charge
Police say the alleged killing was planned and deliberate, and two suspects remain at large after earlier second-degree murder charges.
- On Thursday, the Ontario Provincial Police upgraded charges against Ottawa men Joseph Madore, 34, and Brayton Kennedy, 28, to first-degree murder in the April killing of Christo Allison Richards in Perth.
- Officers were called to Last Duel Park on April 12, where they discovered Richards suffering from life-threatening injuries; he was transported to a trauma centre but later died.
- Authorities previously charged two others: 46-year-old Michael Lewis in May with conspiracy to commit murder, and 32-year-old Lyna in June with being an accessory after the fact.
- Police believe Madore may be in British Columbia near Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Terrace, or Richmond, while Kennedy could be in New Brunswick; officials warn the public to call 911 if they see the suspects.
- Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lanark County Ontario Provincial Police at 1-888-310-1122, or submit tips anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
