EDMONTON – Spruce Grove RCMP are releasing new pictures and a video of the last time Jolene Cote was seen before her murder.
Cote’s body was found at her home, which is near Spruce Grove, on the early morning of October 13, 2011.
Police have determined the 36-year-old played a soccer game at the Edmonton Soccer Centre on the city’s west side at 7:00 PM on October 12.
She left the facility just before 10:00 PM and went to a store on Stony Plain Road. She bought a few items and then left the store at about 10:40 PM.
Police have released security camera video of her at the store before she left.
This was the last time she was seen until she was discovered by her husband at 6:00 AM on October 13. The items she bought at the store were found in her vehicle.
Police also released photos of three unique pieces of jewelry which are missing from the family home. Police are not sure whether Cote was wearing them at the time of her death.

The jewelry includes two rings – an engagement ring with a solitary diamond and a white and yellow gold band, and a wedding band of yellow gold. The third piece of jewelry was a necklace with a silver chain and a diamond pennant.
Police have also released a photo of the 2002 silver Jeep Liberty she was driving the night before her murder.
Police are hoping the photos and video will spark new tips in the case. They are hoping someone will have seen Cote between the time she left the store to the time she was found dead.
In an effort to generate more tips, the family has set up a private reward for information that leads to an arrest. Jolene’s sister, Rhonda Berg, issued a statement announcing the reward has been raised to $50,000. Her letter can be seen below.
