Codi Carlyle Rogers, a woman remembered for her engaging personality and indomitable spirit, was a beloved mother, daughter, and friend. Born on September 3, 1981, the 40-year-old Mission, British Columbia resident was known for her ability to strike up a conversation with anyone, and she used her spirit to encourage others to persevere through their own struggles. The pride and joy of her life was her daughter, Matina. Her family, including her mother Christine, her brother Tyler and his family, and many other relatives, remember her as someone who will be sadly missed but never forgotten.
The last known sighting of Codi was on the night of January 31, 2022. At approximately 11:30 p.m., she was seen leaving her residence on foot near Grand Street and 6th Avenue in Mission. The following morning, on February 1, 2022, at 10:43 a.m., a report came in to the Mission Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) about a deceased woman found in Cascade Falls Regional Park.
The location was about 22 kilometers from Codi's home. The deceased was soon identified as Codi Carlyle Rogers, and the circumstances were immediately deemed suspicious.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) was called in and took conduct of the case, working in partnership with the Mission RCMP, the BC Coroners Service, and the RCMP Integrated Forensic Identification Section. Investigators quickly determined that Codi's death was a homicide. An early finding from the investigation was that the homicide did not occur where her body was discovered. Police believe she was killed at another location before being left in the park. Investigators have stated that her death appears to be an isolated incident and is not connected to the ongoing gang conflict in the Lower Mainland.
In the days and years following Codi's death, IHIT has worked to build a timeline of her final hours. They have repeatedly appealed to the public for information, asking to speak with any of Codi's friends, associates, or anyone who may have been in contact with her in the days leading up to her death. On the one-year anniversary of the discovery of her body, investigators made a renewed plea for witnesses. Sgt. Timothy Pierotti of IHIT stated, “We’re once again asking for those with information who have yet to speak with police, anyone with new information or anyone who may have seen a suspicious vehicle in the area of Cascade Falls Regional Park on the night of January 31, 2022, to please contact IHIT.”
In September 2022, family and friends gathered to celebrate and honor Codi's life at the Harbour Authority Hall in Mission. They were encouraged to bring stories, memories, and pictures to share. In an online memory book, friends and family shared their grief and love, with one friend describing her as an "awesome beautiful woman." Another wrote, "your heart leaves a hole in mine."
As of February 2026, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police IHIT unsolved cases page continues to list Codi Carlyle Rogers' death as an active and ongoing homicide investigation. No suspects have been publicly identified, and no charges have been laid in her murder. Investigators continue to seek information that could help them solve the case and bring justice to Codi and her family. Anyone with information is asked to contact the IHIT Information Line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at [email protected].
