About Trina

Trina Hunt, was a 48 year old woman who lived at 38 Hawthorn Drive, Port Moody, BC. She was employed by Shaw Communications and had a great rapport with co-workers, many remaining friends after she left to take an early retirement.

She was last seen at 6am on the 18th January 2021 at her home by her husband Iain Hunt. He reported her missing later that day when he returned from work. Police, search and rescue crews, and hundreds of volunteers scoured the area around her Heritage Woods home for weeks, but found nothing.

Her body was found in Hope, BC on March 29 2021, in the same area her and her husband visited in January - her murderer is yet to be brought to justice.

Un-setting the alarm would cause 2 beeps, but unsetting it and leaving in the morning does not cause any continuous beeping to wake someone.

Iain Hunt and his family has not contributed towards the reward. They have not and refuse to commit any finances, nor time, nor provide any more encouragement, effort, nor exposure to help track down Trina's killer and help provide closure. Iain, and his family's silence and weak action is deeply noted by all, her friends, and most importantly, the memory and family of Trina.
