At approximately 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday November 15, 2006, a

Bill James PAPPAS, 35, of Calgary, was taken into custody
hours before he was to board a flight to Europe.

well as arson, possession of stolen property under $5000,
uttering a forged document and fraud under $5000.

On Wednesday, November 8, 2006, at 7:40 p.m., the Calgary
Police Service and the Calgary Fire Department responded to
reports of a house fire at the home of Brian Kullman. The
circumstances surrounding the fire caused the Joint Forces

On the evening of Thursday, November 9, 2006, the Arson Unit

to assist in the investigation.
On the morning of Friday, November 10, 2006, a missing person
investigation was initiated to locate Brian Kullman, as well
as his 2003 Mercedes Benz C240 vehicle. That afternoon, the

of highway 66 in Kananaskis Country. The body was later
identified as that of Mr. Kullman.

I am so glad they caught this Bill Pappas, I hope he gets what he deserves. My initial hunch (and everybody else’s as well) was right, guess it goes to show sometimes you have to listen to your gut…
