Experts say efforts to apprehend the suspect are likely hampered by the Prairie province's vast geography, network of criss-crossing back roads and underfunded policing services.
Efforts to apprehend Myles Sanderson are likely hampered by the Prairie province's vast geography, network of criss-crossing back roads and underfunded policing services, experts said.
"Saskatchewan is five times the size of the United Kingdom. There's an incredible amount of space for someone to disappear." "There are a lot of back roads and gravel roads that are maybe only accessible six to eight months a year," said Ruddell, who holds the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan Chair in Police Studies.
Sometimes officers aren't on the ground long enough to know the area before being called upon to assist in a manhunt, said Michael Boudreau, criminology professor at St. Thomas University in Fredericton. "If the person you're trying to catch knows the area better than you, they will be able to elude you for much longer," he said.
