"I understand that the family and the community want closure, but any information we release to the public could comprise the investigation," she said.

According to Cst. Smith, homicide investigations are complex and she said it is not unusual for homicide cases, such as this one, to take a long time to complete.

"All I can say is that the investigation is ongoing and we just have to have faith in the process," she said.
