At the end of an almost two-month-long search at a Waterloo landfill for a body or any evidence related to the death of Catherine Todd, police has declared to have not found anything helpful. Addressing a press release after announcing the decision, Chief Matt Torigian stated that “as part of the ongoing effort to return Catherine Todd to her family, our dedicated members and partners undertook a vigilant and thorough search of the landfill site – the scale of which was unprecedented for our Service.” He explained that “although we were not able to locate Catherine, I remain thankful to everyone involved for their commitment to this investigation.” 

48-year-old Todd was reported missing from her home in Kitchener on March 21, in investigation of which a Kitchener resident, 25-year-old James Parise, was arrested as a suspect in the case and charged with second-degree five days later. After interrogating the suspect, police initiated the extensive landfill search as a loveseat was also missing from Todd’s apartment, and police was expecting to find the loveseat, along with possible clues to the location of Todd’s body, at the Waterloo Regional Landfill.

Police had cordoned off a definitive area of the landfill from the overall larger site. The area where search was conducted was informed of the size of a football field and contained approximately 400,000 cubic feet of waste material. Almost eleven or more officers were involved in the search on daily basis while Parise remained in police custody. He is now scheduled to appear in court on May 22.
