Police investigating the murder of 42 year old Sonia Veraschin of Orangeville think a pair of boots may be the key to finding her killer. Forensic evidence suggests the killer was wearing a size 10 or 11 Wind River or Dakota brand of boot, sold only at Mark's Work Wearhouse. OPP Detective Inspector Mark Pritchard asking that anyone who may have seen someone with unexplained blood on their boots, who may have thrown out a pair of boots or bought a new pair in the last week, call police with that information. Pritchard also says they believe the killer acted alone, is very familiar with the Orangeville area and with Veraschin. Cause of death has not been released. Based on evidence gathered, police do not believe this was a random act.
