Bodies of Missing Americans Found in Canada
Thursday, September 01, 2005
LAVAL, Quebec — Police found the bodies of two young American men Thursday who have been missing for 10 days, but couldn't tell if foul play was involved in their deaths, authorities said.
The remains of Steve Wright (search), 20, of Santa Rosa, Calif., and Mark Kraynak (search), 23, of Uniontown, Pa., were found at the bottom of a rock quarry near a nightclub, where the men had said they were headed, said Guy Lajeunesse, a police spokesman for the city of Laval (search), just north of Montreal.
He said that the men's parents, who have been working with police on the investigation, were able to make the identifications.
"We're going to need an autopsy to show the cause of death," Lajeunesse said. "Right now, we don't know if they jumped, if they fell or if someone pushed them."
He said the men were found at the foot of a 50- to 60-foot drop of the quarry.
The two men were last seen at 3 a.m. Aug. 22 outside a nightclub in Montreal. They were supposed to return to the United States later that day, via Toronto, where they had spent the summer working for the French Connection Francaise (search), an agency that provides strip clubs and adult entertainment firms with male models.
They had called a friend that morning to say they were headed to the Red Lite, an after-hours club in Laval, Quebec's second-largest city on a neighboring island from Montreal.
Kraynak was a former U.S. soldier who was awarded a Purple Heart while serving in Iraq, his parents said. He was due to start his sophomore year of college this week.

Spell it out for me- How does the article you posted relate to the topic title you chose?
Are you saying that this was murder and that the motive was that these guys were American?
Damn, you're good, you should give the SQ a call- maybe they'll bring you in on the case. |

I'm sorry, I thought the content of this article was the most absurd situation I've read in awhile.
Canadian virtue touts homosexual relations but this is more of homosexxxual vice. A young militarily decorated American working his way though college with a summer job as a gay hustler and ends up dead along with his pal. I don't think I've so much absurdity in one small space in a long while.
On the surface, American and Canadians are at each others throats but under the covers, our sleaze balls are still getting along. |

Am I naive in that I don't see any necessary gay connection to this story, not to mention an international relations angle?
PS: What is SQ? Sally Quinn? San Quentin? |

Surete du Quebec.
Take one sensational case and build a theory around it actually being an indicator of anything, and you get - Dulouz. |

Hey ...
Thanks for posting the news story Dulouz. It was a great read & really makes a guy stop & wonder about what could possibly have happened.
Will also be interesting to see if anything substantive comes out of it. Foul play OR two drunks carelessly stumbling off & together falling to their untimely deaths?
Hmmmmm ... one thing that's clear is that if it was "foul" play, we'll be hard pressed to ever see the truth come to light.
With scenarios like this it hardly ever does  |

In Canada, we have rock quarries near all night clubs.

Ah, I see, you intentionally build nightclubs near to quarrys so you have a easy place to lose the tourists (?)   No. 1 point = check before entering a nightclub there are no quarry's near by
