The crimes of Allan Legere, who in 1989 brutally ended the lives of four defenceless residents in his home community of the Miramichi, New Brunswick. Having been convicted of murder three years previously, Legere had escaped from prison during a hospital visit and remained on the run for six months. Intent on revenge, he returned to his home town, hiding out in the woods during daylight but stalking the community at night. Dubbed The Miramichi Monster, Legere's ultimate act of revenge was the murder of his local catholic priest.
