The horrifying and tragic events surrounding Russell Williams shocked Canadians and stunned the members of the Canadian Forces. However, perhaps even more stunning was the sadistic double life that Williams lived the three years prior to his arrest. As a very respected and well-liked officer, he had risen to the rank of Colonel and was in charge of the country's largest and most important air base. He personally piloted planes carrying the Prime Minister, the Governor General, other dignitaries, and even Queen Elizabeth. Yet this high-ranking soldier was really a sexual predator and murderer who cloaked himself in a uniform. What was most fascinating and intriguing was the way in which he could "switch" roles. For example, he raped and tortured Jessica Lloyd while she begged for her life. During the torture, he received a message on his Blackberry about a soldier who broke his leg during a parachuting exercise. He temporarily stopped the torture, replied with a "thank you" to the sender and returned to torment his victim. Towards the end of Lloyd's ordeal, Williams forced her to model lingerie and he eventually struck her with a flashlight and strangled her to death. He put her in his garage until he could dispose of her body because he had to pilot a troop flight to California that next morning. Countless other times, he would commit a crime and then leave to attend important functions. In his mind, he had to go to work; so he did. His two-faced persona extended so far that he had the cold-blooded capacity to send an official letter of condolence to the family of his first murder victim, Corporal Marie-France Comeau. Russell Williams is truly Canada's most recent Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde!
