Cody Legebokoff


Cody Alan Legebekoff (born c. 1990) is a Canadian serial killer convicted in 2014 by the British Columbia Supreme Court of murdering three women and a teenage girl, between 2009 and 2010, in or near the City of Prince George, British Columbia. This trial of one of Canada's youngest serial killers drew national attention.

Cody Legebokoff is a Canadian citizen who was raised in Fort St. James, a district municipality in rural British Columbia. He has been described by friends and family members as a popular young man who competed in ice hockey and showed no propensity for violence. Though Legebokoff had a minor criminal record, he was not "on the radar" of local police.

After graduating Fort St. James Secondary School, Legebokoff lived briefly in Lethbridge before moving to Prince George. There, he shared an apartment with three close female friends and worked as a mechanic at a Ford dealership. In his spare time, Legebokoff frequented the Canadian social-networking site Nexopia, using the handle "1CountryBoy."

On November 27, 2010, at approximately 9:45 p.m., a rookie Royal Canadian Mounted Police ("RCMP") officer observed Legebokoff pull his truck onto British Columbia Highway 27 from a remote logging road. According to a case report prepared by the officer, the 2004 GMC pick-up truck was speeding erratically, and on a hunch, the officer decided to pull over the vehicle for a routine traffic stop. It was odd and even suspicious that someone would be on that road, that late, in frigid November, so he suspected Legebokoff of poaching in the backwoods and signaled for him to pull over.

The officer was joined by a second RCMP officer. Upon approaching the vehicle, the officers say they noticed Legebokoff had blood smears on his face and chin, blood on his legs, and a pool of blood on the driver's mat. The officers claim that upon searching the pickup truck, they discovered a multi-tool and wrench covered in blood, as well as a monkey backpack and a wallet containing a children's hospital card bearing the name Loren Leslie. When questioned about the blood on him, Legebokoff purportedly stated that he was poaching and had clubbed a deer to death because: "I’m a redneck, that’s what we do for fun." There wasn't a deer carcass with him.
