Pickton is deemed to be one of the most prolific serial killers in Canadian history. He was convicted of six counts of second-degree murder for the killings of Sereena Abotsway, Mona Wilson, Andrea Joesbury, Brenda Ann Wolfe, Georgina Papin and Marnie Frey, according to CP24.

He was charged with the murders of 26 women in total, and was sentenced to life in prison in 2007, with the maximum parole ineligibility period of 25 years.

Police uncovered the remains or DNA of 33 women on Pickton’s pig farm in Port Coquitlam, and the infamous serial killer once bragged to an undercover police officer that he killed a total of 49 women, according to CP24.

At the time of his sentencing, B.C. Supreme Court Justice James Williams noted this was a “rare case that properly warrants the maximum period of parole ineligibility available to the court.(RELATED: Jeffrey Dahmer’s Dad Tells Dr. Phil That He Missed Opportunities To Stop His Son’s Killing Spree)
