#10 - Ghislain Blouin - Tuesday, May 14, 1996

My dealing with Birks the previous Thursday had gotten me another headline with Henderson at the Gazette, a front page spread in the Saturday edition, in fact, which covered what details were known, a recap of the Vigilante murders to date and the highlights of Lieutenant Dave McCall’s press conference held late Friday afternoon. Montreal’s top murder cop clearly recognized he had a serial killer on his hands, he obviously didn’t like it, even if the victims were all scum, and he promised the public that resolution in the ongoing case would soon be the final chapter.

I felt for the guy and wished I could help him. In fact, I was, in my own way, though he obviously didn’t share my opinion. I’m sure he would have preferred that I turn myself in or, at the very least, cease my activities but I had my things to do with an established schedule to respect. As they say, you can’t please everyone.

Next on my ‘to do’ list was Ghislain Blouin. I had mentioned earlier that among the more horrendous crimes was home invasion. However, there are few crimes, if any, more despicable than those which involve the abuse or exploitation of children. For an adult to take advantage or prey on others incapable of defending themselves because of their lesser size, physical and mental capabilities makes me sick to the core with anger.

Though he had been arrested and even served six months of prison time for indecent exposure and soliciting juveniles, the authorities and the courts had never succeeded in proving his guilt for his more serious, hideous aberrations of human life.

The molestations he was responsible for which he himself had documented in video format, their distribution through illegal networks of child porn, the sickening harm and trauma he had instigated… he had never had to pay for. At least four of these children had gone missing, never found, which acquaintances had sworn had been videotaped in his home, based on decor, wall colors, furniture and so on… Walls had been repainted, even wallpapered, furniture changed, paintings discarded and replaced… Just to hide what had happened.

The court’s decision had been one of ‘not guilty’, due to lack of sufficient evidence. Some of his neighbours, seated in the courtroom audience, had screamed revolt… They had seen these children on several occasions, two girls and two boys, aged from seven to ten, at Blouin’s previous home in the North Shore town of Legardeur, before their disappearance.
