Eduardo Malpica: A Student's Journey to Canada

This is an immigrant's story. A Canadian story. A mystery. Six months ago, Eduardo Malpica went missing after a night at a bar in Trois-Rivières, Quebec. Last week, his body was pulled from the St. Lawrence RIver. Was he hurt by men he argued with outside the bar? Did he wander off, embarrassed and drunk, and kill himself? Was his drink spiked? Nobody's sure.

But Malpica came from nothing, built a life here and was beloved by so many, especially new Canadians that he often took under his wing. He was a professor with a family and a lovely home. What happened to him, and why?
