Jesse Norman Imeson is a Canadian suspected killer, now in police custody, who was wanted for the murders of Carlos Rivera, 26, Bill Regier, 72, and wife Helene, 73. All three killings were committed in Southwestern Ontario during July 2007. This caused an extensive manhunt by Canadian authorities and a Canada-wide warrant was issued for Imeson's arrest.

Imeson was arrested in Portage-du-Fort, Quebec, on the evening of Tuesday, July 31, after being identified and reported to police by a homeowner who had come face-to-face with Imeson after an attempted break-in. Imeson surrendered peacefully in the woods in which he had fled to after the confrontation, despite having possession of two firearms at the time.
