COQUITLAM, B.C. — A 30-year-old man has been charged with murdering a Coquitlam, B.C., woman who was reported missing last November. 

Police say that after an almost yearlong investigation, homicide investigators have determined that 57-year-old Jodine Millar was murdered.

Millar was reported missing on Nov. 28, the same day police found her empty car after a crash on Highway 1.

Investigators at the time said witnesses saw the brown 2011 Hyundai Tucson speeding when it veered off the road and into a water-filled ditch, and a second vehicle was seen leaving the area.

Sgt. Timothy Pierotti, spokesperson for the province’s Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, says Millar’s remains were recovered by the RCMP, but police are not releasing details of when or where they were found.
