The RCMP's Major Crime Services released details about a historical homicide, as an arrest has been made.

Crystal Shannon Saunders was found deceased in a ditch near St. Ambroise nearly 17 years ago, and her alleged killer has been discovered and arrested.

"Kevin Queau was arrested and charged for Crystal's murder and remains in custody at the Surrey detachment as we speak."

According to Mounties, DNA was found on Saunders’ remains.

Due to advancements in technology around 2014, DNA got a hit on the National DNA Databank and linked it to Queau.

Crystal was just 24 years old when she was last seen getting into a vehicle just days before her body was found.

She is remembered as a devoted mother, daughter, and friend who lost her life to this senseless act of violence.
