on november the 29, 2017 the body of 22 year old tess richey was found in an external flight of stairs which lead to the basement door of a house being renovated at 580-582 church street. she was dead. autopsy determined death by neck compression, strangulation, making her murder 56 of 2017.
she had been missing for several days. four days passed from the time her sister reported her disappearance to police on november the 25 and her body being found on november 29, by her mother and a friend of the richey family.
richey had been out past midnight, meeting and drinking with friends at crews and tango, torontos most notorious drag venue at church and maitland. she was last seen at or around 3 to 4 am on saturday the 25 of november by one of the friends and other witnesses, one of them a suspect in the murder.
she is last seen on surveillance camera entering the yard or descending the external steps to the basement at 582 church with one of the witnesses, a young male she and her friend met at a hot dog cart further south on church street.
the building on the property they entered is currently under renovation which was allegedly on hold at the time the murder happened. the back yard is well fenced in and partly covered with a roofed garden penthouse. 582 seems to share a toronto heritage building status with its neighboring property 580 church street.
surveillance of the two buildings at 580-582 church street is provided by obn security. their mascot an owl. (oh please let there be an illuminati connection). other cameras on buildings adjacent and nearby properties allegedly recorded her and the young male enter the driveway and descend the external stairs. the same event has probably happened thousands of times over the years.
the building 584 church street to the north of 582 has "fuck u" spray painted in black on the white wall facing the stairwell richey was found in. how long the graffiti has been there would be interesting to know, some graffiti is said to be crime related. surveillance cameras might show who wrote it. and wether it was there before or after the murder
the stairs leading to the basement door are partly covered by the landing of a set of stairs above them which lead to a door on the ground floor. this landing provides a roof to the basement landing. making a sheltered spot for a person or two.
a pile of gravel hides the top of these basement stairs, not high enough to hide them or the basement door from view or that they lead to an open lower landing.
photos show the door at the bottom of the stairs seems to open out and a metal plate has been installed in place of a handle to prevent access. perhaps it can be opened from the outside or someone inside opened it for them.
the landing at the bottom of stairs is only large enough to let the door open, a person outside the door would of noticed it opening out at thit if the murderer was inside the basement. some one who had been drinking and fell asleep maybe could of been caught unaware.

when news went out of another missing person torontos queer community searched and postered the neighbourhood though no one thought to check the highly visible open staircase? maybe the people searching felt ill at ease about walking onto private property. or there was no real search only a lot of talk of one or what people involved thought was a search.
it's not as though her body was laying out on the sidewalk and people were walking over it, but considering the unhidden location of the body it seems strange no one has come forward to say they looked there between november 24 to 29 and no body was present. were they all so busy postering no one thought to check the construction site or thought the construction workers or obn security would of checked the site.
perhaps someone did look but her fallen form seemed a bundle of cast off clothing and didn't think to check closer. a not uncommon thing to see piles of cast off clothes in doorways in downtown toronto.
was this where she was killed or did that happen elsewhere and the body was put there sometime between november 24 and 29. was the body in the basement for several days then placed outside on the 29 of november.
the building was allegedly not being worked on for some days around the time richey went missing. obn security didn't find the body before anyone else. apparently they don't do a daily check of a clients property when it's left unattended for more than a day or two. maybe that is the normal procedure or they were too busy harassing malingerers somewhere else.
was the construction crew questioned by police. the renovations seem to have been on hold for some reason does the fact the renovations seemed to have been on hold for a few days during richey was being looked for part for the murder plan by someone on the inside.

death from falling combined with alcohol was the original conclusion of the police. this was later changed to death by neck compression and changed to homocide when the autopsy was completed.
the young male she was photographed entering the property with seems to be the main suspect. the young male other witnesses have reported and she was last seen with by others and recorded to be with her by security cameras on or around the 580-582 properties. murder or rough kinky sex combined with alchohol gone wrong.
sex is a common enough occurrence in torontos downtown core at night, i've seen or been near it a couple of times. people between buildings or in parks having sex.
velvet mafia maybe. she wouldn't prostitute herself for the greater glory of the social justice international, so they killed her. i've had my own troubles with them and their agents like chris hyndman and scott thompson. from what i observed murder dosnt seem beneath them.
transitioning is mentioned in an interview one of her sisters gave after richey was found. this may refer to deciding on a course for her life or to gender sex changes she was considering. if so that underworld is steeped in organized crime of the velvet kind and infiltrated by the social justice international who expect something for something. if you cross them it can end bad.
richey had worked as a bartender at the brass rail, torontos notorious othersex striphouse, and allegedly was listed on an escort service. her family disputes the escort service allegations. was the young male a customer or delivering her to a customer in the basement at 528 church street.
during the winter some street people will find a way into buildings they know are unattended for some time. recall the street people who died in the fire in the unoccupied building at yonge and gould.
someone malingering in the basement of the building noticing there was someone on the other side of basement door opened it and grabbed her. was the floor of the basement checked for traces of her shoe prints or activity other than construction.
natos 1970s gladio operation in italy and other european countries comes to mind. it was claimed by some on the inside that nato operatives were bombing public places and killing people so the public would ask for more protection from nato, a protection racket. richeys death and other missing people cases in torontos queer community have had a similar effect, a call for more policing.
