****
Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka’s wedding day was a lavish affair -- horse-drawn carriage and all. While their guests toasted the happy couple’s new life together, fishermen and boaters on Lake Gibson were making a gruesome discovery: human remains encased in cement - 10 pieces in all. Those remains belonged to 14-year-old Leslie Mahaffy, who had gone missing from the backyard of her family’s home. She wasn’t the first teenager to die at the hands of Paul and Karla -- and she wouldn’t be the last.
