I did a thread on cold case Mexican fugitive Pedro Padilla Flores in July, so I thought why not do a thread on a cold case Canadian fugitive since I live in Canada and AMW did air alot of cases out of Canada in the years it was on the air. So here's the profile of fugitive Rosaleen Mary Wallace. I'm just going to repost the RCMP description for this case. I don't believe she was aired on AMW.
On February 17 1987, Toronto police were dispatched to the residence of a five year old boy who had collapsed. Upon their arrival, Peter Anthony Wallace was found unconscious. Attempts to revive the child were unsuccessful and he died later at hospital. An autopsy determined that the child had died of Hirschsprung's Disease. Investigation revealed that the child’s condition had worsened in the previous two years leading up to his death. The parents failed to seek proper medical attention and the child had gone largely untreated for his disease.
Both parents were both charged with Manslaughter. The father, Archie Wallace, was arrested and spent four years in jail for the crime. The mother, Rosaleen Wallace disappeared prior to the charges being laid and her whereabouts are unknown.
Thoughts? Considering the father only spent four years in jail for this crime, it's odd that Rosaleen has been on the run for this long. I also read some online Google News archived stories that doctors did want to do tests on Peter, but his parents failed to seek proper care. Hirschsprungs disease is reportedly always successfully treated. Interestingly, the archives also mention that Rosemary may have been hiding out with a band of gypsies of all people.
UPDATE from site admin: As of July 29th, 2018. Wallace is still listed on the RCMP website as one of their most wanted fugitives: www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/wanted/rosaleen-mary-wallace
