(CP) — RCMP confirmed today they have a suspect in custody who was to be charged this after noon with the murders of two teenage girls from the Miramichi region of northern New Brunswick. Staff Sg. Ben St. Onge of the Newcastle RCMP said a man who lives in the Neguac area was arrested late Tuesday night as he returned home. Police have been searching his residence and were waiting for him. St. Onge said police had been tipped about the suspect in connection with the Aug. 11 rape and murder of 13-year-old Tara Prokosh at Lower Newcastle, about 60 southwest of Neguac, before the second body was discovered Monday in a gravel pit just outside this village. Therese MacLaughlin, a 19-year-old single mother of a nine-month-old child, had been sexually assaulted and killed by a blow to the head, RCMP said Tuesday The murder of the young woman, who lived with her adoptive parents in Neguac and attended high school, had heigh d fears in the Mi ichi region that a serial killer might be on the loose. pee i aey be SS CASTLEC OFFICE 365-5210 = rrison +, i find itl St. Onge, who has headed the investigation into the Prokosh murder, said in a telephone interview from Newcastle that police had their eye on a suspect in the case before the second killing. “We had him on tips, it’s just too bad that this murder (of MacLaughlin) happened,” he said. Several villagers told reporters MacLaughlin — a petite person known to her friends as Big Red because of her long, flame-red hair — was last seen Sunday night walking along the main street near William Gay Road, about a kilometre from where her body was found. Collinda Savoie, said during a tearful interview, that she and McLaughlin worked together last winter at a furniture store on the village's main street. Savoie recalled the last few times she saw her friend. On Thursday night, McLaughlin had dropped in for a moment on her way to the local pub, where she was going to console a mutual friend who had quarrelled with his wife. Savoie saw her again Friday night when she said she planned to go to the club again to talk to the same man's sister. MAGIC SHOW .. .

VISITS HOME At the McLaughlin house, the yard was filled with the cars of friends. John McLaughlin, 78, and his wife, May, did not want to speak to reporters about their daughter's death. ‘The couple has raised four of their own children, as well as the adopted Therese in the small, white house. Village administrator Georges Savoie urged villagers not to over-react. McLaughlin's funeral will be held Thursday afternoon in the local Roman Catholic Church Schoolteacher sentenced to seven years VERNON, B.C. (CP) — Sehoolteacher William Cadden was sentenced in county court Tuesday to seven years in prison after he was convicted of sexually abusing five of his young students. Judge Ken Arkell said Cadden showed no remorse for his actions, had no concept his conduct was wrong or was willing to undergo treatment “Any possibility of reformation or rehabilitation will have to take place in an institution,” he told Cadden who showed no emotion. “Without continuing long-term care you would continue to pose a threat to the public.” Cadden was convicted earlier this month of seven counts of sexual assault and three counts of gross indecency. Cadden, who had been teaching Grade 4 at West Vernon elementary school since September 1976, was suspended without pay in January when the charges were laid. The charges caught staff at the school by surprise. School principal Henry Pansegrau earlier described Cadden as “somewhat of a loner but certainly no one had these expectations that these things could have gone on.” Cadden, a bachelor, received his teaching certificate in 1972 in Nelson, B.C. He taught in Cranbrook, B.C., in 1972 and began working part time at West Vernon elementary in 1973. His mother has taught locally since 1967 Nine of the offences occurred between Sept. 21, 1985, and Jan. 9, 1986. The 10th offence occurred between April 7 and May 31, 1985 Cadden’s five-day trial was told he would lock the classroom door before the children were abused. One or two of the victims would be told to go into the leg well of his desk to perform sexual acts on him. Although Cadden’s class was in session when the offences took place, the victims were hidden from view by the front of the desk. When Arkell convicted Cadden Sept. 9, he said the teacher manipulated his students through subtle threats, fear, coersion and intimidation. Hanford death rates no higher downwind RICHLAND, Wash. (AP) — Cancer death rates in a portion of Franklin County downwind from the Hanford nuclear reservation are similar to other counties in eastern Washington, state epidemiologist Sam Milham told a panel investigating Hanford’'s health effects Tuesday. Milham said his “quick and dirty micro-study” in the area was done because he was unable to find any increased cancer rates in a larger study of eastern Washington communities. “I didn’t see anything unusual,” Milham told the Hanford Health Effects Panel, which concluded two days of presentations on radiation releases and doses at the facility. The group plans to spend today and Thursday in deliberations before issuing recommendations on possible studies of health effects. Milham said his study looked at death certificates listing cause of death for the area between 1970 and 1984. The rates were compared to U.S. and statewide rates and suggested no increased numbers in’ the downwind areas, he said His studies would have been more thorough if hospitals had made confidential records available, Milham said. He asked the panel to recommend the state Hospital Commission be requested to allow him access to death certificates. The author of numerous Hanford nuclear reservation reports was called upon to explain early environmental monitoring procedures. Joe Soldat, a Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratory scientist who was in charge of environmental monitoring Inmates used for testing SPUKANE, Wash. (AP) — reports, said early radiation dose were rather than measured. It wasn't until after 1957 that instruments sensitive enough to measure specific isotopes were developed, he said. Soldat said he didn't begin working at Hanford until 1948, after the massive radiation releases of 1944 and 1945 during wartime production of plutonium for nuclear weapons. The committee has been hampered by two few records from 1944 and 1945, and much of its work has been to try to determine the potential amounts of radiation that were released and the possible doses to humans. Its work may not have been helped by conflicting con- clusions from the same sets of numbers reached by two scientists. Dr. Ethel Gilbert of Battelle's Pacific Northwest Laboratory concluded her study could find no correlation, either positive or negative, between radiaiton exposures and Hanford worker deaths. Cancer death rates for 13,500 males who worked at Hanford for two years or more are lower per 100,000 than the U.S. rate, she said. The difference reflects the “healthy worker effect,” which results because Hanford workers must be healthy to be eligible for a job, she said. Dr. Alice M. Stewart of the University of Birmingham's Cancer Epidemiology Research Unit, d reading A former Washi: State Penitentiary warden says he was told in the 1960s that prisoners were needed for radiation experiments to help federal researchers learn the effects of space travel on astronauts. “They told us that they (astronauts) were exposed to so much radiation during a flight that they wanted to test them (prisoners),” said Department of Energy on Monday revealed the use of Washington and Oregon prisoners for studies of X-rays on testicles. Rhay said the experiments started in 1963 and did not last very long.
