Top Comments of this video!! :3
I met Pickton, my Opa used to buy animals at the livestock auction near Aldergrove and Pickton was usually down there. Picton would buy the sickly animals no one else wanted, cows that were too sick to walk onto the block on their own. My Opa was talking to him to buy some pork off him, so Opa introduced me to him as Mr Picton, I shook his hand and he said "call me Willie". He was really greasy, with longish lank hair hanging down the sides of his head. He was unwashed and weird looking I remember. I was around 8 or 10 years old at the time.

I went into one of the Pickton farm buildings in Port Coquitlam as a child in the 1990s with a group of other adventurous kids. We were curious about the derelict buildings & their contents & dared each other to enter. We had no idea that people were being murdered on the property & didn't see anything evil, but we did see Mr Pickton come at us with a shotgun yelling at us to get off his land. It was the first time any of us had ever seen a real gun & we ran for our lives terrified. We didn't tell our parents, because we knew we were trespassing. It came as a shock as an adult when I learned how close we'd actually come to seeing Death in those buildings. Rest in Peace to the victims who never made it back home from the farm.

I remember this very well. I'm from the Fraser Valley, not too far east of where Pickton was born and raised. This story had pretty much everyone talking, especially when they started digging up the land and finding bodies. A very small part of me feels bad for his upbringing - no one should be raised as he and his brother were - but he was a horrific man who deserved the worst of punishments.
Poor Janet Henry!! To escape another of BC's serial killers who terrified us in BC (I was a little girl when he was active), only to be murdered by another.
There were so many things the police could've done so much better. So many lives could've been saved if they'd only done a lot of things differently. All because most of the women weren't considered worthy of being cared about and because of where they'd last been seen.
It was a huge relief when Picton was caught and arrested.

Sad to hear about the story of the calf. Im only 3 minutes in the video. Sometimes, parents arent aware how kids process their understanding of the world and sometimes can fail them by neglecting their needs. My parents once gave away a pet that I loved a lot without thinking of me so I can understand this pain a bit. Coming home from school expecting it to be there but it's not.

I grew up in Vancouver area and live like 15 mins from that farm. He always had parties over there. People think the Hells Angel's had involvement over there. Went to the prison he was being held in and saw him on the monitor one time lol.
