Murder
On June 30, 2007, the bodies of Garon, his wife Raymonde and a neighbour Marie-Claire Beniskos were found inside the Garon's 10th floor condominium near the Rideau River. Investigators believed that the victims were murdered on the morning of the day before. The three people had been bound, gagged and beaten.
In the course of their investigation, police found that images from video surveillance cameras for the luxury condominium complex were not being recorded.
On October 31, Ottawa police released a sketch of a man wanted for questioning in connection with the murders. The man had been seen in a building elevator on the morning of the day before the bodies were found.
One year later, police featured the murders on a Crime Stoppers television segment and offered a $100,000 reword for information leading to an arrent.
As of June 2011, the case remains open and police have received no recent leads.

Famous quotes containing the word murder:
“I cannot beat off
Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:
Be a man my son by God.
He turned again
To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

—Jim Morrison (1943–1971)
“You who led me by the nose,
I saw you as you were.
Then I thought of your body
as one thinks of murder . . .”
