In many ways, this story reads like a typical runaway, determined to make it on her own. But Darlene was not the only one who disappeared at this time. Her friend Jinisina “Jan” Stonehouse disappeared on August 8, 1983 from Oakville. She was also pregnant.
The similarity of these two disappearances was too coincidental to ignore, and the Halton Police believe the two cases are connected.
