The crown is trying to see if they can link unresolved crimes to a Montreal man suspected of killing a Corrections Canada employee.
Claude Larouche was arrested in connection to the first degree murder of Natasha Cournoyer based on DNA evidence.
And now the crown is trying to see if new DNA evidence can connect the 48-year-old suspect to other cold cases.
Crown prosecutor Éliane Perreault says they handed over the new evidence to Larouche’s new lawyer and they’re waiting on other tests for other cases.
“The new DNA we’re waiting for is for this case but the investigation is wider than that,” Perreault told reporters.
One of the cases they’re looking at: a prostitute who was attacked by a client two weeks after Cournoyer’s death, the woman saying she thought she recognized Larouche.

… Before the Internet, people would go out to bars,” she said, “and pick up women or prostitutes.”
With sex addicts, the sex isn’t the driving force, she said. It’s more complicated than that.
“It’s not so much to have sex as it is a challenge to get partners to say OK,” she said. “Sex addicts get a sense of, ‘Job well done.’ It’s the very same dynamic with each patient.
“People want to feel something other than what they’re feeling,” she said. “It’s the same as with alcohol, nicotine, drugs; they want to be something other than what they are.”
One problem seen by therapists is self diagnosis. People see a celebrity caught in a cheating scandal and then seeking sex addiction treatment and think they have the same thing, said Jo-Ann Bird, a sex therapist in Brandon.
…
Gone untreated, sex addicts can have lives that spiral downward, leading to obsessions with pornography, prostitution, exhibitionism, voyeurism, child molesting, incest and rape, he wrote.

For Jean-Baptiste, who shares an adoptive mother from Montreal with sister Manousheka but has a different father, that new life involves leaving his home country.
With the earthquake, I lost all of my belongings, said the young man, adding that he lost his passport and other documents when his house collapsed. I want to find my mother in Canada. She lives in Montreal. She works a lot. She is a Canadian citizen. I want her to help me get out of here. Im dying of hunger. And I dont want to leave my half-sister in this country. She has forms but she cant fill them out. Maybe my mother will see me in the media. She comes back to Haiti every two years.
Rapes and prostitution have Jean-Baptiste fearing the worst for his 20-year-old sister, who, unlike her brother, doesnt speak French.

Sooo, proof that Susan Sarandon has been maybe having a bit of a tough time since her breakup? The fact that the 63 year old actress went onstage at “Of Montreal’s” Tuesday night show at the Highline Ballroom and spanked two performers dressed like pigs with a ruler.
One could make the argument that Sarandon has always been a little kooky, given that she starred in Rocky Horror Picture Show, and has gone to stripper classes with her daughter. Still, for those of us who grew up in the 90s, it’s hard to reconcile this bad-ass persona with the woman we identify as mother characters from Little Women and Stepmom.
*Since summer, we have been trying to come up with the correct generalized colloquial spelling for the abbreviated version of “the usual.” “The Yoojz” was the best we could come up with (after spending WAY too much time arguing). Well, do YOU have a better suggestion??? Let us know!

While it might make sense that sex could be addictive – it’s fun, feels great and is a highly pleasurable escape from the daily grind – some experts are unconvinced of its legitimacy as a real disorder, viewing it as little more than a ‘get out of jail’ free card played by a cheating spouse who’s gotten caught. In other words, sexual addiction is the hot trend du jour.
“I would say some people deal with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, but is it an addiction? No,” says Calgary-based human sexuality expert, Dr. Trina E. Read.
“There are people who wreck their lives and other peoples’ lives, but in my experience, it’s few and far between. I think it’s a very topical thing. In five or 10 years, it won’t be the flavour anymore. It will be replaced by the new thing. It sounds very sexy to say sex addiction.”
In Woods’ case, the repercussions have been steep, possibly causing irreparable damage to his marriage to Elin Nordegren, career and public image. The unsavory notoriety prompted a number of high-profile corporate partnerships to dump Woods quicker than a stripper ditching a customer after a lap dance.

How do experts tell the difference? One major clue is if you spend most of the day consumed by sexual urges, fantasies, and activities. Another is if you spend an excessive amount of time engaged in sex, to the extent that it leads to adverse consequences like getting fired or losing custody of your kids. “We also need to do a careful assessment to determine what seems to be causing the problem,” says Coleman who treats about 100 new patients a year for hypersexuality.
For instance, a sexless marriage that drives a spouse to prostitutes or serial affairs may not indicate a psychological disorder. Nor does a porn or masturbation habit. “I’ve seen young single men who want me to treat their compulsive behavior of masturbating several times a week, which goes against their religious values,” says Coleman. “But they really have a conflict with their internal value system, not a mental problem.”

Acting on persistent fears that homeless and orphaned children will be victimized by human traffickers, the Haitian government in Port-au-Prince has put the brakes on the large-scale migration of orphans destined for adoptive families in the U.S.
Haiti’s prime minister, Jean-Max Bellerive, told The Miami Herald his government had considerable fears that children may be scooped up in the streets of Port-au-Prince by nongovernmental organizations. The government also has concerns that children may be trafficked into prostitution or slavery.
Bellerive said his country would not release children for adoption without his personal approval, and ordered nongovernmental organizations working in Port-au-Prince to stop collecting children found on the street.
“I, personally, Jean-Max Bellerive, the prime minister of the Republic of Haiti, signed three specific authorizations of adoption lists that were in the adoption process with people who are known for their services with children who are clearly identified as orphans,” Bellerive told The Herald.

To many Americans, sex addiction is often a punch line. “People say, ‘If I have an addiction, I want to have that one,”‘ Manley said. But Manley and other sex therapists say most clients don’t get treatment until their sexual behaviour has ruined their lives – wrecking their marriages, causing them to spend thousands of dollars on pornography or prostitutes, or even getting arrested for soliciting prostitutes.
But for someone like Tiger Woods, is this an addiction – or merely a way of life for rich, powerful men?
…
“If you’re spending over 14 hours a week – or two hours a day – doing something sexual or quasi-sexual, like cruising the Internet for porn or cruising the streets looking for a particular type of prostitute, you’re in the addictive range,” Grieco said.
