Detectives with VicPD’s Major Crime Unit were called to the scene and continued the investigation. The incident was determined to be a homicide and VIIMCU assumed conduct of the investigation.  

VIIMCU investigators continue to build a timeline of the events leading up to Jeremy’s death. Jeremy was living in Edmonton at the time of his murder and arrived in Victoria to visit family on Saturday, August 28, 2021. On August 30, at about 5:00 p.m., Jeremy went out for dinner with his daughters at a downtown restaurant, then stopped at a pub in the 1100-block of Government Street. From there, Jeremy walked north on Fort Street back to his mother’s home on Carberry Gardens. Jeremy was last seen outside of the residence at 7:51 p.m. that evening. No arrests have been made in this investigation. 

“We are thankful to all of those who came forward with information over the past three years” said VIIMCU investigator Cst. Elyse Patten. “The investigation continues, and we are once again asking those with information, who have yet to speak with police, anyone who may have seen a suspicious vehicle or person in the area of the 1000-block of Carberry Gardens in the early morning hour August 31, 2021, to please contact us.” 

In 2022, Jeremy Gordaneer’s family, including his sister, Alisa, and his daughters, Clea and Sylvie, made a video in which they shared stories about Jeremy as a loving father and caring brother, and appealed for those who know what happened to him to come forward. You can watch the video here: Family Of Jeremy Gordaneer Appeals For Information In Homicide Investigation
