Pig Farmer Feeds Prostitutes & Drug Addicts to His Pigs
Lynn Ellingson walked in on Robert Pickton, the 58 year old Vancouver pig farmer, when he was covered in blood and had Georgina Papin hanging from a chain in the farm’s slaughterhouse. Parts of women’s bodies were discovered in the dustbin, the pig pen and buried in manure. The prosecutor argued that the evidence, though circumstantial, was more than enough to prove that Pickton was the murderer. Under Canadian law, a murder conviction leads to an automatic life sentence. He is charged with killing 26 women, picked up from a seedy Vancouver neighborhood.
