Last April, authorities in London, Ontario, Canada charged 33-year old Antonio Cortez with the Second Degree Murder of 24-year old Vanessa Fotheringham. Vanessa disappeared on Feb 16, 2012 and her body to date has not been located. Investigators are being tight-lipped on what evidence they have against Antonio, only that they will be able to call witnesses in court. Antonio and Vanessa were friends at the time of her disappearance and Antonio might have been a drug dealer based on a questioned asked to London Police at a press conference.
In addition to the Second Degree Murder warrant, Antonio is also charged with uttering forged documents and fraud. Based on social media profile pages, he could be in either Toronto, Ontario, Canada or Mexico.
Based on wanted location, our advice for anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Antonio Cortez then contact the London Police Department at 519-661-5670.

Thoughts? I hadn't profiled a Canadian case in quite some time despite living here in Canada so I felt this was a good story to post about. Not much information to speculate about, but considering that law enforcement wants to protect the evidence they have, I do not blame them for keeping tight-lipped. I would also advise anyone with details that have not been publicized by local law enforcement to not mention them online, including this message board since one of the last things I want to see happen here is for this investigation to be compromised.
