Since breaking the story of the murder of Reet Jurvetson in Los Angeles in 1969, Coolopolis has been receiving tips and suggestions in hopes that it might solve the case.
This latest one may or may not prove useful.
Young Jurvetson traveled to Los Angeles to find a boy she was crushing on by the name of Jean.
His identify remains a mystery.
The two were staying at the place of another Montrealer also named Jean, as shown in the illustration.
The image was drawn by Paul Robert, based on a description by Gilda Green, who chatted with this Jean (the host, not the boyfriend) one night after Reet had disappeared at Cafe Prag on Bishop. Green tells Coolopolis that host Jean was short, around 5'6" and spoke very little English.
As well as looking exactly like the man in the sketch and having the same first name, this Jean traveled to Los Angeles during those years.
Coolopolis is interviewing his acquaintances in an attempt to find out whether he might have been in Los Angeles at the time.
Green recalls Jean as being short, however, and this Jean was tall, around 6'2" and spoke excellent English. So the lead may or may not pan out. Those with further information are welcome to pass them along to megaforce@gmail.com.

I saw him at the Prag. I asked him about Reet. He said she was happy, stayed with them for about 2 weeks and then left on her own. I asked where she went. He said he didn't know. I also asked about his friend Jean. He said he was still in L.A. He really was not able to say much in English. It was not an in-depth conversation by any means. After this, I never saw him again.The Jean seen above bears a strong resemblance to another Jean from Montreal, from the same time in the same scene.
