On Wednesday, December 4, 2024, The Bolo Program announced an update to its ‘Top 25’ most wanted fugitives and a suspect wanted by the Regina Police Service for second-degree murder has joined that list.
Twenty-two year-old Reshaun Norman COTE is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant, following a fatal shooting on May 12, 2024. The homicide took place in the 4800 block of Sherwood Drive and claimed the life of 22 year-old Everett Wolfe ROBERTS-ORR, of Regina.
Two other suspects, twenty-four year-old Isaiah James Dustyhorn, and a 17-year-old youth who cannot be named in keeping with the provisions of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, have already been arrested and charged in connection to this case. The national attention that comes with the Bolo Program is critical in the search for the final suspect, Reshaun COTE.
“RPS Investigators have been working to locate and arrest Reshaun Cote,” said Deputy Chief Trent Stevely, of the Regina Police Service. “With the national attention generated from the Bolo ‘Top 25’ list, more eyes than ever will be on the lookout (Bolo) for Mr. Cote which can help us bring this investigation to a successful conclusion.”
What is the Bolo Program?
The Bolo Program is a program that aims to bring national attention to wanted suspects across the country through various methods including large rewards, media campaigns and more. The program is free of charge to police services and taxpayers. You can learn more about the Bolo Program here.
COTE is currently number nine on the list and, at this time, there is no cash reward attached to his arrest. Often, the national exposure of a suspect being named to the list is enough to get tips that result in an arrest.
COTE joins Daniel Juma ATEM as the second suspect on the list from the Regina Police Service. ATEM is wanted for first-degree murder for a homicide that occurred on July 29, 2023. ATEM currently sits at number 14 on the list, with a reward of up to $50,000 for information that leads to his arrest.
A key partner in this initiative are Crime Stoppers programs across the country, including here in Regina. Tipsters can remain anonymous not only while sharing information, but also while collecting their rewards, all without ever speaking to an investigator.
