Aielah Katherina Saric-Auger
Murdered February 2-10th 2006
The 14-year-old Aielah attended D.P. Todd Secondary School, where she was in the eighth grade, she was a friendly girl and was known to make friends easily, but trusted others a bit too much.
The Disappearance
February 2nd 2006 Aielah had gone to a friend’s house late in the night in order to ask said friend’s mother for a ride home, as she hadn’t wanted to call her Mom Audrey. When she was unable to obtain a ride, she was seen walking toward a house where drug users are said to frequent. Dozens of individuals known to spend time there were questioned, but were eventually cleared by investigators. A police officer who had run into her that night was also questioned and given a polygraph test, but was ruled out as having any involvement.
According to Audrey, Aielah was last seen getting into a black van.
Surveillance footage of the surrounding area showed Aielah walking north on the 2100 block of Quince Street. At around 1:00am, she was seen passing the Save-On-Foods gas station (no longer there) on 100-1600 15th Avenue.
On February 10th, 2006 the body of Aielah was located on the side of Highway 16, approximately 22 miles east of Prince George and one mile past the Tabor Mountain ski hill. A passing motorist had noticed something in a ditch close to the Tabor Ski Resort.
The autopsy confirmed that Aielah had died as a result of blunt force trauma to the head. According to reports, much of her body was missing due to animal activity
