I guess you learn more everyday

I ended up finding an article on the Internet on Kelly Ann Quinns Murder (for those who dont know, Kelly was our really good family friend)..I thought I'd share it with you.


"Murder suspect Arden Diebel repeatedly clubbed his estranged girlfriend with a hammer before dumping her body in the back of his pickup and going for coffee, the Crown said yesterday.
And when Diebel heard moans from a dying Kelly Anne Quinn after he raced out of town, he bludgeoned her some more, said prosecutor Harold Hagglund.
Hagglund, in his opening statement, told Justice Peter Clark the accused arranged to meet the victim in a school yard behind her Southwood area home the night of her killing.
Diebel, who faces a charge of first-degree murder in the Sept. 14, 2004, slaying, had come to Calgary from his home in Cereal, near Hanna, 160 km northeast of the city.
Along the way Diebel stopped at a shop where he used to work, 20 km outside Calgary, to pick up the murder weapon, Hagglund said.
"The accused, in the school yard, hit Ms. Quinn numerous times on her head with the hammer," Hagglund said.
"He picked Ms. Quinn up by her belt and put her in the back of his pickup truck," the prosecutor said.
"Once she was placed in the rear of this pickup truck, he then hit her again with the hammer."
Diebel then went to Tim Hortons for a coffee before gassing up and heading out of the city.
"Just outside of Calgary, at the village of Langdon, he stopped the truck," Hagglund said.
"He went to the back of the truck (and) heard noises coming from Ms. Quinn.
"He again hit her numerous times about the head with the hammer," said Hagglund.
Diebel continued on to Hanna, dumping the hammer along the way before disposing of her corpse, the prosecutor said.
Meanwhile, in evidence, the victim's father testified he became suspicious something was wrong when his daughter's three prized dachshunds arrived home without her.
John Quinn testified he last spoke to the 25-year-old victim by telephone the night she disappeared.
"The dogs showed up at 3:30 a.m. without Kelly," he said.
"I thought something was bad."
The elder Quinn said he contacted Diebel, who had stayed at their home just days earlier, but the accused said he and Kelly had split up. He said Diebel replied it was bizarre when the father said his daughter was missing.
The trial, scheduled for two weeks, continues this morning. "
