Arrest in 20 year old murder case

A man has been charged with murder for the second time in connection with a southwestern Ontario girl who went missing nearly 20 years ago.

Fifteen year old Christine Harron of Hanover, vanished after leaving high school in May, 1993 and her body has never been found. Anthony Ringel, of nearby Chesley, was initially charged in 2004 with first-degree murder in connection with the case. He spent 22 months in prison before the charge was stayed before the matter came to trial due to how provincial police handled evidenced gathered in the investigation. Police continued to look into the girl’s disappearance in 2010, an investigation they say led to a new charge against Ringel. Forty four year old Ringel has been charged with first-degree murder following his arrest Wednesday night.
