The Crown reported that Pickton told the officer that he wanted to kill another woman to make it an even fifty, and that he was caught because he was "sloppy".

He will be up for parole in a few more years. Hopefully they recognize that he is at high risk of killing another woman if they let him out.

There is zero chance he gets out.
