Hello mmorgan-ga
Thank you for your question.
The Canadian couple you’re referring to is Paul Bernardo and Karla
Homolka. In the following excerpts you may verify that this is the
correct answer and read about this shocking case.
=====================================
“In 1991 in southern Ontario (Canada), this husband-and-wife team
kidnapped, kept as a sex slave, then two weeks later murdered
14-year-old Leslie Mahaffy. In 1992, they abducted 15-year-old Kristen
French, kept her for the same purpose for one week, then likewise
ended her life.”
(..)
“Predating the deaths of French and Mahaffy, the pair had taken the
life of another young victim, Homolka's 15-year-old sister, Tammy Lyn.
On Christmas Eve 1990 and as her Christmas present to her
then-boyfriend, Homolka drugged the girl with animal tranquilizers,
making it possible for Bernardo to rape her at leisure. The child
never regained consciousness. She choked on her own vomit and died
that night.”
(..)
“In 1993, for her part in all three murders, Homolka was sentenced to
12 years behind bars. Bernardo was sentenced to life in 1995.”
