Calgary police charge woman with murder in missing person case

Calgary police have charged a third person in connection with the death of a missing man.

Christopher Stevenson was last seen in August 2023.

Court records show Kenedee Taylor now faces a second-degree murder charge along with Shaun Alexander Folk, 47, who was charged last week.

Ali Samir El-Sayed, 45, is charged with accessory after the fact to murder.

The arrests were made after what police describe as an "extensive investigation," including searches of a downtown Calgary home and a rural property in Rocky View County.

Records show Folk was on parole at the time he's accused of murdering Stevenson.

His parole was revoked and he was sent back to prison in September when police notified Folk's supervisor that he was a suspect in the Stevenson investigation.

At the time, Folk was serving a four-year sentence for drug trafficking and firearms offences.

The Correctional Service of Canada determined his risk to the community was "unmanageable."
