Needlepoint and banana bread: Murderous American fugitive who hid in Alberta for decades remembered by friends

A shocking revelation has rocked the small town of Taber, Alberta, after it was discovered that a beloved community member, Dee Glabus, was actually Sharon Kinne, a fugitive wanted for multiple murders in the United States and Mexico. Kinne had been living in Taber for decades, under the radar of American and Mexican authorities.

Former friends and neighbors of Glabus were stunned to learn of her true identity. Known for her bridge-playing skills and delicious banana bread, Glabus was a well-liked member of the community. She was described as a talented needlepoint artist who volunteered at the local food bank and was always willing to lend a helping hand.

Glabus came to Taber in 1973 with her husband, Jim Glabus, and the couple owned the Taber Motel before transitioning to a career in real estate. After Jim’s untimely death at the age of 38, Dee remarried and spent 30 years with her second husband, Willie Ell, until his passing in 2011.

It remains unknown if either of Glabus’s husbands were aware of her criminal past. Taber’s mayor, Andrew Prokop, expressed shock at the news and declined to comment further on the situation.

The revelation of Glabus’s true identity came to light after an anonymous tip led authorities to investigate her fingerprints following her death. It was confirmed that Dee Glabus was indeed Sharon Kinne, a fugitive who had escaped from a Mexican prison in 1969.
