The mysterious death of Jessica Cunningham, a woman found in her Maple Ridge home, has connections to organized crime in British Columbia. Cunningham was married to Cody Rae Haevischer, a former member of the Red Scorpions gang, who is serving a life sentence for his role in the infamous Surrey Six murders—the deadliest gang shooting in the province's history. Her death, which was first ruled as suspicious, is now raising concerns about potential links to the violent gang culture linked to her husband's past.

Court documents reveal that after Cunningham’s death last summer, her body was discovered stored in a deep freezer, and ongoing investigations have led to renewed scrutiny into her husband’s criminal ties. The Surrey Six murders, which occurred in 2007, not only claimed the lives of targeted gang members but also two innocent bystanders, revealing the collateral damage of such violent rivalries. The case of Cunningham's death points to a cycle of violence that continues to impact the lives of individuals connected to BC’s organized crime.

Moreover, as Haevischer seeks to overturn his murder convictions through a stay of proceedings, the legal proceedings surrounding his case may complicate the investigation into Cunningham’s death. This incident highlights the pervasive influence and dangers associated with gang affiliations and raises critical questions about safety and intervention in communities deeply affected by such criminal behavior.
