The Saskatoon Police Service has positively identified human remains
located earlier this month as those of 20-year-old Karina Beth Ann
Wolfe, the subject of an active missing person investigation since
2010.

On November 26, 2015, with the assistance of
Patrol, Saskatoon Police Major Crime and Missing Persons Detectives
arrested a 33-year-old man in connection with Karina Wolfe’s
disappearance and murder. He is expected to appear in Saskatoon
Provincial Court on Monday, November 30, 2015. The accused is facing charges of Second Degree Murder and Offer Indignity to Human Remains.

On
November 10, 2015, the SPS received information that led them to a rural
location northwest of Saskatoon. Officers searched for remains
utilizing the SPS Public Safety and Forensic Identification Units, and
received assistance from the Office of the Chief Coroner, Forensic
Anthropologist Dr. Ernie Walker, the RCMP Cold Case Major Crime Unit and
the Corman Park Police Service. Human remains were recovered on
November 14, in the same area. DNA has since confirmed that the remains
are those of Karina Wolfe.

Next of kin was notified on
November 26 once the DNA test results were received.  At this time the
family of Karina Wolfe is requesting privacy.  The SPS requests that
members of the media respect that.
