OPP visited victim’s home night of Russell Williams attack: report
An OPP officer knocked on Jessica Lloyd’s door on the night she was raped, kidnapped, and later murdered by serial killer Russell Williams, the Toronto Star reports. At that moment, Williams was hiding in his intended victim’s backyard. The female officer visited Lloyd’s home after noticing what she thought was a suspicious vehicle (Williams’s Pathfinder) parked along the highway north of Belleville, near the 27-year-old’s home. But when nobody answered, the officer left. The officer is reportedly taking it quite hard, and may have taken time off work due to the stress of believing she could have done more to help Lloyd.
