OPP renew call for help after remains of B.C. woman found in Ontario
Ontario Provincial Police are renewing calls for help in solving a 21-year-old case involving the remains of a British Columbia woman found in the province.
The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have once again issued a plea for assistance in solving a 21-year-old case involving the discovery of Tammy Eileen Penner's remains in Ontario. This call for help comes ahead of the anniversary of the day the remains were found, on August 28, 2005. Penner, a 41-year-old woman from Chilliwack, British Columbia, was reported missing on February 7, 2005.
After traveling from British Columbia to Ontario, she was last seen near a transport truck in Mississauga on July 30, 2005. The OPP, using investigative genetic genealogy, identified Tammy's remains, confirming they belonged to her in 2024. Despite her death being considered suspicious, many questions remain unanswered. The OPP is urging anyone who remembers seeing Penner, or has any information about her disappearance, to come forward.
