MONTREAL – Montreal police say they have found the remains of a young girl who vanished over 12 years and the case is now being treated as a homicide.
Jolene Riendeau was last seen on April 12, 1999 leaving a corner store near her home in Pointe-St-Charles, located in southwest Montreal.
Jolene was a 10-year-old at the time.
Police have not released where the girl’s remains were located, but say they may have a line on a suspect.
Over the years since her disappearance, it is estimated close to a million posters were distributed, making her face one of the most recognizable missing children in Quebec.
