Dès leur arrivée, un policier qui se trouvait déjà sur les lieux les a informés qu'avant de quitter leur maison, les Laframboise avaient remarqué trois jeunes gens qui buvaient de la bière dans le jardin des Grummett, qui sont les voisins du côté nord des Laframboise. Ce renseignement a par la suite été confirmé au cours d'un entretien avec Mme Laframboise, qui se souvenait d'y avoir déjà vu à plusieurs reprises l'un des jeunes gens en question.

Between 8:00 p.m. on June 25, 1982, and 3:00 a.m. on June 26, 1982, there was a break and entry in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Laframboise, in the city of Windsor, while the occupants were away. A stereo set, a wrist-watch and some liquor were stolen. On the morning following the theft, Detectives Reaume and Chevalier were dispatched to the Laframboise residence. Upon their arrival, the detectives were informed by a constable already on the scene that prior to leaving their home, the Laframboises had noticed three young men drinking beer in the Grummetts' back yard, which bordered their own property to the north. This information was thereafter confirmed in a discussion with Mrs. Laframboise, who recalled having already seen one of the youths there on a number of occasions. She added that there was a short conversation between one of the youths and Mr. Laframboise: as the latter was putting his dog in the garage before leaving the house, one of the three men inquired as to whether he always put his dog there. The detectives then met with the neighbour on the southern side of the property who informed them that the yard lights in the Laframboise residence went out at around 10:00 p.m., two hours after the occupants had left. The neighbour did not see anyone in the residence at the time. The detectives then returned to the Grummett residence and questioned a boarder who lived there, Mr. Dura. He told the detectives that he had not seen anybody in the Grummetts' back yard the previous evening.
