In 2003, RCMP spokesman[1] Const. Jack Eubank claimed that Crime Stoppers no longer produced re‑enactment videos[2] — a statement which was later proven to be a blatant lie.[3] This is one of several false or misleading statements made by Eubank and other RCMP members regarding Lisa's disappearance.[4]

In 2009 the re-enactment video was finally produced by Nanaimo & District Crime Stoppers with ShawTV[6], based on details provided by Nanaimo RCMP investigators.[3][5] Unfortunately, most of the information presented was wrong.[7]

At 0m32s in the Crime Stoppers' re‑enactment video, narrator RCMP Cst. Gary O'Brien mistakenly states that Lisa stayed at the bar until closing, and left around 2:30am..

The fact is, Lisa and Dallas left The Jungle with Adair in his grandmother's Jaguar XJ-40 at 1:00am on July 1, 2002.[8][9]

Bar closing time

The Crime Stoppers statement seems to imply that the bar closed at 2:30am when, in reality, the bar would not have been open past 2:00am — and the RCMP would have clearly been aware of this fact.

An October 2002 report commissioned by the City of Nanaimo confirms that The Jungle had a Class 'C' liquor license (cabaret/nightclub) which means the business must close by 2:00am, and includes an RCMP statement about incidents occurring when groups of nightclub patrons (19 to 25 year olds) exit the area's Class 'C' establishments at 2:00am when the establishments close.[10]


The re-enactment video was produced based on information provided to Crime Stoppers by Nanaimo RCMP.[3]
