We analyze some fresh information regarding the strange disappearance of Kellen McElwee

The 25-year-old Burnaby man had been dining with three friends at the Keg on the evening of March 19, 2008.

He was last seen heading to his car, which was parked in the Colossus movie theater parking lot nearby.

Shortly after his disappearance, the investigation was taken over by the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, and police said they were treating the case as a murder and that they believed he had met with foul play

The only clue ever revealed by police was that his 2006 Honda Civic was found a few days later parked on a street not far from his Burnaby apartment. "It had been driven by someone who used the keys," said police.

The same day that Kellen McElwee vanished without a trace in 2008, he became the official owner of a 26th-floor apartment in Burnaby.

By assuming two other people's mortgages for the condo at 4132 Halifax St. Lougheed Highway, McElwee was able to purchase it for $675,000.

At the time, the two-bedroom, sub-penthouse suite was assessed at $535,000

Why McElwee decided to pay so much more than the assessed value is one of the many unanswered questions.

Who is mystery person on condo security video

Burnaby RCMP released photos of a male recorded on security video leaving McElwee's condo building.

The male in the photos was wearing a winter jacket with a fur-trimmedhood and carrying a DC brand backpack.

a puffy Christian Audigier-style coat with fur around the hood

Police never publicly identified the person as a suspect.
