Neighbor was charged for with murdering missing SFU professor...
I have (had?) a Persian neighbor a few houses down and she was always nice to me - her boyfriend, a white guy, really liked my dog. She warned me about a bear in the area once. I had only spoken to her a handful of times, I didn't know her name.
In 2022, someone had spray painted her car with the word PARASTOO on it in Farsi and also English. I always thought Parastoo was a girl's name (means 'swallow', the bird), so I asked my family, and they let me know it's also used as a derogatory word for women who are used as honey traps/spies by the IRGC.
Fast forward a month or two ago, there's an article about a missing SFU professor (who was no longer teaching).
I went down the rabbit hole and it is wild. I don't want to butcher the details so I suggest you read about what this guy was alleging and why he was at odds with lots of communities/courts, if you didn't already know.
A month after that in March there's an RCMP update to the case. It says a North Vancouver woman was arrested along with a man from Maple Ridge, both charged with murdering the ex professor. Apparently, the victim had made lots of accusations about the two being a spies for the IRGC. I remember thinking 'damn that's crazy'.
Later, I'm going about my day and I suddenly remember that a week before the second article, my other neighbor had asked me if I had seen "all the cop cars" on our little block. He sent me photos and said it seemed like a drug bust or something, they brought in big cop cars that opened from the top.
I think that's obviously just unrelated and a coincidence. But then I think about her damn spray painted car from years ago. I feel kind of unsettled and look up another article and that one had a photo of my fucking neighbor in it.
Anyway, how's everyone doing.
Edit: GODDAMMIT I can't believe I made a typo in the title meanwhile my stupid ass read through the body of the post like eight times.
Edit 2: Just want to be very clear, I am not alleging anything myself, this is all just relaying events that are currently news stories, except for the car vandalism I saw. I don't know who did that to her car. I don't know anything about her, she was never suspicious or strange to me. She's obviously innocent until they can prove her guilty in a court of law. Also sorry, I dont really feel comfortable saying exact street locations...🫠
