Mexican national charged with 1996 murder in Vancouver's West End
Rueda Salud lived in the same building as Muriel Lindsay, a 40-year-old Canada Post worker and cancer survivor, at the time of her death on Feb. 16, 1996
Mark Edward Grant, now 63, was found guilty of sexual assault and unlawful confinement in a Vancouver sex assault case. Grant, who was acquitted of the 1984 murder of 13-year-old Candace Derksen in Winnipeg, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the 2026 sexual assault and confinement. The victim, a 61-year-old woman, met Grant, who lived above her in an SRO building, earlier in the day, and they consumed drugs together.
After the drugs, the victim asked Grant for more, and he allegedly invited her to his apartment. Grant then physically restrained the victim, tied her hands, and forced her into sexual acts against her will. The victim managed to escape after about five hours and later informed police of her ordeal.
