Circumstances of Disappearance

Carmen Robinson was last seen exiting a bus at about 10pm on Saturday December 8, 1973. The bus dropped her off at West Burnside Road and Holland Avenue in View Royal, a short walk to her home on Helmcken Road where she lived with her mother and sister. She had just finished a shift at the Ingraham Hotel on Douglas Street near Burnside Road East where she worked as a dishwasher. Carmen often carried a flashlight and would signal to her sister with it as she approached home. Foul play is suspected in her disappearance. Serial killer Clifford Olson lived in Victoria at the time Carmen disappeared, and confessed that he murdered her. He was given a chance to reveal the location of her body to police, but was unable to to.
