Circumstances of Discovery

Newborn twin girls were found dead inside a black bag garbage bag in a pit toilet at Allison Lake Provincial Park, 30 kilometres north of Princeton along Highway 5A. The B.C. Coroner Services confirmed the deaths were criminal in nature. Police believe the lack of BC medical records indicates that the mother never received care in B.C. or that she may have come from another province of the country prior to giving birth. Police state it's possible the mother herself was a victim. The community of Princeton posthumously looked after the newborns who became known as the "Princeton Angels." A memorial plaque marks their burial place in the Princeton Cemetery.
