Three of the victims were found off gravel roads linked to a main highway and police are appealing for people heading into the woods as the weather warms up to report any remains they might find.

The RCMP say they’ve already conducted systematic searches and are looking to identify more places to search in areas between Prince George, Vanderhoof and Fort St. James.

In addition to the Montgomery murder, Legebokoff is accused of killing 15-year-old Loren Donn and Jill Stuchenko and Cynthia Maas, who were both 35.

Last week, Montgomery’s family held a healing ceremony for Natasha and appealed for the public’s help in finding her body.
