In December 1995, Juthlande Pierre attended a party with Dieuseul Jean, her spouse. In the days that followed, her friends tried in vain to contact her.
They contacted Montreal police to report her disappearance. A search at 74 8th Avenue in Roxboro (Montreal) led to the discovery of her body under a pile of carpet pieces in the basement of her apartment. It is believed that Juthlande Pierre had been stabbed in the head with a knife several times.
Dieuseul Jean is wanted for the first-degree murder of Juthlande Pierre.
According to information received in 1999. Dieuseul Jean is out of the country, possibly in Khartoum, Sudan.
