True North True Crime

In September 1984, eighteen-year-old Shawn Reineke went to a university dance in Saskatoon. At some point that night, a group of strangers pranked him while he was passed out drunk, then left him alone in the building. Hours later, he was found at the bottom of a garbage chute, nine floors below. He died the next day.

A coroner's inquest the following year concluded it was highly unlikely Shawn got into that chute on his own. Even so, nobody was ever charged, and more than forty years later, nobody has ever explained what actually happened that night.

Saskatoon lawyer David Scharf spent years researching Shawn's case and joins us to walk through what's known, and what still isn't.

In June 2017, twenty-five-year-old Adam Cormack was shot once in the head and left near a gravel pit outside Whitehorse, Yukon. Within days, Yukon RCMP had a suspect in custody: Edward Penner. Two years later, a jury convicted Penner of first-degree murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for twenty-five years.

That should have been the end of it. It wasn't. In 2025, the Yukon Court of Appeal overturned Penner's conviction, and a new murder trial was ordered from the beginning.

In this episode, we take you through the Adam Cormack murder trial: the evidence, the witnesses who testified, the appeal that unraveled the verdict, and the retrial still ahead. We hear directly from Adam's mother, Theresa Cormack, and a close family friend, on what it's meant to keep fighting for justice for Adam inside Canada's justice system.

In March 2026, four years after Anthony Primozic died in Haines Junction, Yukon, Seth Boss finally stood trial in Yukon Supreme Court on a charge of second-degree murder. Nobody disputed that he caused Anthony's death. The three-week trial came down to one question: could the Crown prove what he actually intended that night, or did his intoxication raise enough doubt to reduce the charge to manslaughter.

In part two of this two-part series, we take you through the evidence, the defence Seth Boss's lawyers built, and the verdict Chief Justice Suzanne Duncan handed down, one that left Anthony's family and the community of Haines Junction reeling. We also follow the family in the months since, as they've turned their grief into a fight for changes to the Yukon justice system.

Anthony Primozic was 25 years old, a proud citizen of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations from Haines Junction, Yukon. By every account from the people who loved him, one of the kindest people in his community. In March 2022, he was killed in his own home by someone he barely knew.

In part one of this two-part series, we introduce you to Anthony through the people closest to him, and we follow his family through the year that came after his death, a year spent waiting, with almost no answers, for an arrest. True North True Crime worked directly with Anthony's family on this series, and we're bringing you their story in their own words, much of it shared publicly here for the first time.

Content warning: this episode contains descriptions of violence that some listeners may find disturbing.

Part two drops August 20th.

In July 2006, 36-year-old nurse and mother Nadine Robinson, also known in media reports as Nadine Robinson-Creary, was found murdered inside her Edmonton, Alberta home. Twenty years later, her homicide remains unsolved, no one has ever been charged, and her family is still searching for answers.

In this episode of True North True Crime, we speak with Nadine's parents, siblings, and son about her life, the events leading up to her murder, and the lasting impact her loss has had on those who loved her. This is the first time the family has shared their story in such detail.

We examine the timeline of July 20, 2006, the Edmonton Police Service investigation, and why this cold case remains open twenty years later. Through family interviews and archival reporting, this episode tells the story of who Nadine was beyond the headlines while exploring one of Edmonton's enduring unsolved murder investigations.

If you have information about the murder of Nadine Robinson (Robinson-Creary), please contact the Edmonton Police Service or Crime Stoppers.

In March 1993, Debra Kayla Entwistle was murdered in her home in Fort McMurray, Alberta. Her former common-law partner Leonard Neveu confessed, led investigators to her remains, and admitted in an Edmonton courtroom that he killed her. He refused to plead guilty to second degree murder. The Attorney General’s office rejected a plea to manslaughter because the evidence was too strong.

Parts of Debra have never been found.

In Part Two, we follow the case through the preliminary hearing, the trial, the verdict, and the sentence. We ask the question Debra’s family has lived with for over thirty years. What does justice look like for a crime like this, and did it ever come?

Stephanie Billard was thirteen when she took the stand as the main witness in her mother’s murder trial. In this exclusive interview, she talks about the letters Neveu wrote from custody, the trauma she still carries, and what it took to build a life after losing everything at twelve years old. Tammlyn Greening, one of Debra’s closest friends, shares her own account of what the years since have cost her.

This episode contains detailed descriptions of intimate partner violence, murder, and dismemberment.

In March 1993, Debra Kayla Entwistle was weeks away from leaving Fort McMurray for good. She had spent years trying to escape a violent man, and she had finally done it. Her father had an apartment waiting for her in Vernon, British Columbia. She never made it.

On the morning of March 24th, her twelve-year-old daughter Stephanie left for school and made her mother's coffee before she went. When she came home at lunch, her mother was gone. What she found instead was a bloody crime scene that would change her life forever.

The murder of Debra Entwistle shocked Fort McMurray and became one of the most significant domestic violence cases in Alberta history. A city mourned. Hundreds took to the streets. And the investigation that followed would uncover a crime so brutal it made headlines across the Canada. 

In Part One of this two-part true crime series, we speak with Debra's daughter Stephanie Billard and with Tammlyn Greening, one of Debra's closest friends. Together they paint a portrait of a vibrant, loving woman who spent years trying to escape an abusive relationship — and who came heartbreakingly close to making it out.

This episode contains detailed descriptions of intimate partner violence, domestic violence, murder, and dismemberment.

Part Two releases in two weeks.

In August 1982, David William Shearing murdered six members of the Johnson and Bentley families while they were on a camping trip near Wells Gray Provincial Park in British Columbia. George and Edith Bentley, their daughter Jackie Johnson, her husband Bob Johnson, and the couple’s two young daughters Janet, thirteen, and Karen, eleven, were killed in one of the most disturbing crimes in Canadian history. Shearing pleaded guilty in 1984 to six counts of second-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for twenty-five years. In 1994 he legally changed his name to David Ennis.

He has applied for parole multiple times. He has never been released. And now, in 2026, he has waived his right to an in-person hearing — meaning the surviving family will not be permitted to attend, speak, or read their victim impact statements when his next application is reviewed this August.

In this episode of True North True Crime, we speak with Shelley Bowden, niece of Bob and Jackie Johnson, about the murders, the decades-long fight to keep Shearing behind bars, and what the family is facing now. We also cover the investigation, the confession, the trial, and the parole hearings that have forced the family to relive this crime again and again for nearly twenty years.

In this episode, we speak with the family of missing 22-year-old Liam Toman — his father Chris, mother Kathleen, and stepmother Lara.

Liam disappeared during a ski trip to Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, in the early morning hours of February 2, 2025. He was last seen walking back toward his hotel in the resort village after a night out with friends, but he never made it back. Since then, his family has been searching tirelessly for answers while navigating the unimaginable reality of having a loved one vanish without explanation.

In this conversation, Liam’s family shares who Liam is beyond the headlines, the emotional toll of his disappearance, and why they continue fighting to keep his story in the public eye. They also discuss the ongoing investigation, their advocacy efforts in Mont-Tremblant, and the hope that someone, somewhere, may still hold the key to bringing Liam home.

A $50,000 reward is currently being offered for information that leads to answers in Liam’s disappearance.

If you have any information related to Liam Toman’s disappearance, please contact the Sûreté du Québec at 1-800-659-4264 or Crime Stoppers anonymously.

Hours after being convicted of assaulting his wife Bailey McCourt, James Plover walked out of a Kelowna courthouse on existing bail. Within three hours, she was dead, killed in a parking lot in broad daylight in front of witnesses. She was 32 years old and a mother of two.

This is Part 2 of a two-part series on the Bailey McCourt case. In this episode we cover the July 4th attack, the questions it raised about how the justice system handles intimate partner violence, and the national push for legislative change that followed. We spoke directly with members of Bailey's family, who have been advocating for Bailey's Law, Bill C-225, which passed second reading in the House of Commons with a unanimous 325 to zero vote. If you have not listened to Part 1, start there.

In this episode, joined by members of Bailey’s family, we tell her story, who she was, the intimate partner violence she endured, the court case, and the conviction that should have protected her.

Sebastian Moore was seventeen years old when he was stabbed and killed in Terrace, British Columbia on the night of November 26th, 2023. A youth was taken into custody but after more than a year of investigation, Crown Counsel declined to approve charges, determining the incident met the legal definition of self-defence.

Sebastian was a member of Kitselas Nation along the Skeena River in northwestern B.C. His family called him Boots. He was training to become an electrician. He was an uncle. He was seventeen.

In this episode, we speak with his brother Oscar and grandmother Debbie about who he was, and what his family has faced since.

His case has been raised in the BC legislature. His community has marched for him. His family is still fighting.

Sebastian's story is part of the documented pattern of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Men and Boys, MMIMB, in Canada.

UPDATE: Since the release of this episode, Deeanna Erickson has been located. Calgary Police have stated that the case is non-criminal and have not released further details. Her sister has shared that Deeanna has passed away.

We extend our condolences to Shelby and to all those who knew and loved Deeanna.

--

On the night of June 6th, 2025, 31-year-old Deeanna Erickson boarded a Calgary Transit bus and began travelling across the city.

Surveillance footage later captured her visibly distressed during the ride. Just after 11 p.m., the bus stopped near a shopping plaza in the southeast Calgary community of Walden, and Deeanna suddenly got off.

She has not been seen since.

In this episode of True North True Crime, we examine the disappearance of Deeanna Erickson through the perspective of the person who knows her best, her sister Shelby.

Shelby describes Deeanna as a deeply caring person who had worked hard to rebuild her life after years of challenges. At the time she vanished, Deeanna had recently secured stable housing near her sister and was beginning to look toward the future again.

Investigators were able to trace much of Deeanna’s movements through Calgary’s transit system that night, but after she left the bus in Walden, the trail went cold.

Nearly a year later, Deeanna Erickson remains missing.

If you have any information about Deeanna’s disappearance, please contact the Calgary Police Service at 403-266-1234, referencing case number CA25242727, or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.

On December 18, 2022, a mass shooting event inside Bellaria Tower II in Vaughan, Ontario left five people dead.

Francesco Villi, a 73-year-old resident of the Bellaria condominium at 9235 Jane Street, carried out the attack after years of escalating legal disputes with the condo board. Within minutes, five residents were killed: Rita Camilleri, Vittorio Panza, Russell Manock, Helen “Lorraine” Manock, and Naveed Dada. Doreen Di Nino survived her injuries.

In this episode, we examine the timeline of the Vaughan condo shooting, Villi’s documented grievances, his final video, the police response, and the Ontario Special Investigations Unit findings.

In this episode, we examine the 1984 murder of 13-year-old Candace Derksen in Winnipeg. Candace vanished on her way home from school in November of that year. Weeks later, her body was discovered in a storage shed, bound and left in the cold.

We trace the investigation, the arrest and trial, and the acquittal that continues to shape how this case is remembered. Along the way, we look at how the murder impacted the Derksen family, the Winnipeg community, and the broader conversation around evidence, justice, and accountability.

Episode Update (January 2026):

In January 2026, Mark Edward Grant — who was acquitted in Candace Derksen’s murder — appeared briefly in a Vancouver courtroom facing new charges that are unrelated to Candace Derksen’s case. The charges include unlawful confinement, sexual assault, assault with a weapon, and uttering threats. Grant has consented to remain in custody while a bail plan is discussed. Details of the matter are currently under a publication ban, and he is subject to a no-contact order with the alleged victim.

In the summer of 2020, 20-year-old Shane Eric James Smith vanished in Calgary. He was last seen on June 6, and within days police believed he had been shot and killed by a friend at a southeast Calgary residence.

In the weeks that followed, the Calgary Police Service charged Ian Charles Abercrombie with homicide, and two others with offences related to the handling of Shane’s body, which has never been recovered.

Abercrombie later pleaded guilty to criminal negligence causing death and indignity to a human body in connection with Shane’s death — a conviction that left many feeling the sentence didn’t match the loss.

Shane’s family, friends, and volunteers have spent years searching the Bow River and surrounding areas, desperate for answers and for the chance to lay Shane to rest.

In this episode, we speak with Shane’s sister, Cassandra, about who Shane was, the painful search for his remains, and the emotional toll of a case that still leaves far more questions than closure.

In this previously TNTC+ episode, we sit down with Gillian Millam, former Metropolitan Police officer from the U.K. and current Executive Director of British Columbia Crime Stoppers. Gillian began working with Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers in 2015 and went on to coordinate one of the province’s most successful programs before stepping into her current provincial role.

We discuss how the program operates, how it has changed over time, and how it fits into community safety across British Columbia, Canada. Gillian also shares her perspective on crime trends in Canada, the realities of tip management, and the key elements that make a tip truly valuable.

A clear, candid look at Crime Stoppers from someone who has been shaping the program for many years. Thank you for joining us to celebrate CrimeStoppers month!

In July 1976, a young gas station attendant named Michael Carmen was shot and killed during a late-night robbery in Albuquerque, New Mexico. His death seemed destined to become another unsolved case in a city struggling with rising crime and few witnesses willing to speak.

But one Canadian-born detective, Greg MacAleese, refused to let it fade away. What began as his search for answers would lead to the creation of Crime Stoppers, an idea that would change community policing around the world.

In recognition of Crime Stoppers Month, this episode looks back at the murder that started it all and the innovation born from tragedy that continues to help solve cases to this day.

In this previously TNTC+ exclusive episode, we dive into the homicide case of Shabir Niazi out of Ajax Ontario. Shabir Niazi, who was 22 years old at the time, was found shot to death in the garage of a home on Roosevelt Avenue. The case drew significant attention due to a series of legal proceedings, including debates over the admissibility of certain evidence and the handling of Crime Stoppers tips. These procedural complexities, involving informer privilege and the integrity of tips provided to Crime Stoppers, played a pivotal role in the case's development​.

It was a quiet Monday afternoon in Burnaby, British Columbia, when police were called to a residential street near Alpha Secondary School. A passerby had noticed a parked vehicle and looked inside — making a discovery that would devastate two families and spark a complex investigation.

The bodies of 31-year-old Keisha Garie and 30-year-old Umair Kasim of Coquitlam were found inside that vehicle. They had been reported missing only days earlier. Within hours, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team took over, working to retrace their final movements and uncover what led to the tragic events of October 17, 2022.

This episode covers the double homicide of Keisha Garie and Umair Kasim and features an interview with Keisha’s mother, Christine Angelis, who shares her daughter’s story and her ongoing fight for justice.

This episode was originally a TNTC+ bonus episode.

In April 2006, a 20-year-old man drove from Nova Scotia to Maine with a chilling plan. Armed with names and addresses from the state’s sex offender registry, he hunted down two men, Joseph Gray and William Elliott, in a series of calculated attacks. What compelled this seemingly ordinary young man to cross borders and commit such violent crimes? In this episode, we explore the events leading up to the murders, the controversy surrounding public registries, and the unsettling questions left in the wake of his actions.

In this previously TNTC+ bonus episode, we're taking you inside a world few people truly understand — the work of cadaver search dogs and their handlers.

We’re joined by Jason McMillan, Vice President and K9 Handler with Canadian Cadaver Canines — a volunteer-based team that assists in searches for missing persons across Canada. Jason and his cadaver dog, Osiris, bring compassion, skill, and unwavering dedication to every case they work on, from wilderness recoveries to historic investigations.

This is part of our ongoing conversation series exploring the many roles involved in the search for the missing. In this thoughtful and eye-opening interview, we learn about the science, training, and emotional weight of this work — and the powerful bond between handler and dog.

On a cold December night in 1962, two men were led through the echoing halls of Toronto’s Don Jail. Beneath their feet, a trapdoor waited. Minutes later, Arthur Lucas and Ronald Turpin became the last people ever executed in Canadian history.

In this special Halloween episode, we step back into that chilling night — and the crimes that brought both men to the gallows.

Through archival records, press accounts, and historical context, we explore how Lucas and Turpin’s deaths marked not only the end of two lives, but the end of capital punishment in Canada.

This is the story of justice, mercy, and the night the noose fell for the last time.

Seven-year-old Wayne Mallette vanished on the deserted grounds of Toronto’s Canadian National Exhibition on September 15, 1956. Within days, police zeroed in on 14-year-old Ron Moffatt, extracting a confession during a parent- and lawyer-free interrogation and securing a juvenile conviction—while the real predator, Peter Woodcock, remained free to kill again. In this episode, we trace the investigation, the tunnel vision that led to a wrongful conviction, and the 1957 courtroom turn that cleared Moffatt. 

We’re joined by journalist and author Nate Hendley, whose book The Boy on the Bicycle documents the case and its legacy in Canadian justice: https://www.indigo.ca/en-ca/the-boy-on-the-bicycle-a-forgotten-case-of-wrongful-conviction-in-toronto/9781988274515.html

On the night of October 12, 1983, 17-year-old Donna Jean Awcock was babysitting for a neighbour in London, Ontario. When her shift ended, she set out for a short walk — but she never made it home.

The next morning, October 13, Donna’s body was found near the Thames River by the Fanshawe Dam. She had been sexually assaulted and strangled. For forty years, her case has remained unsolved.

In this episode, we explore Donna’s life, the night she disappeared, and the investigation that followed. We also place her case within the pattern of unsolved murders that haunted London, Ontario, during the 1970s and 80s — a city some criminologists later called the “serial killer capital of Canada.”

If you have any information about the murder of Donna Jean Awcock, please contact the Ontario Provincial Police or Crime Stoppers.

It was the early hours of August 3rd, 2001, in Edmonton, Alberta, when fire crews responded to a dumpster blaze behind a central apartment building. Once the flames were out, they made a horrifying discovery — the burned remains of a young woman.

For nearly two weeks, investigators worked to find out who she was. They canvassed hundreds of apartments and narrowed their search to a short list of missing women. Dental records would confirm the victim was 18-year-old Patricia Calahasen.

What police uncovered next was a story of trust betrayed, a violent assault, and a desperate attempt to destroy the evidence. The person responsible was just 17 years old. But for Patricia’s family, the fight for justice has lasted decades.

In October 2008, 21-year-old Dylan Koshman disappeared from south Edmonton after a late-night argument with his cousins. He left the house wearing only jeans and a t-shirt—and without his phone, wallet, or jacket—never to be seen again. Initially treated as a missing-person case, the investigation was later reclassified as a homicide. Dylan’s wallet was recovered from a neighboring yard, but no other trace of him has been found. Years later, the case remains unresolved, classified by police as suspended, with no charges laid.

In June 1959, 12-year-old Lynne Harper disappeared from the small community of Clinton, Ontario. Two days later, her body was found in a wooded area near a rural concession road. What followed was one of the most infamous wrongful convictions in Canadian history.

Steven Truscott, a 14-year-old classmate, was arrested, charged with Lynne’s murder, and sentenced to death — all within weeks. For decades, Steven fought to clear his name, facing a justice system that refused to admit its mistakes. His case became a landmark example of wrongful conviction, influencing public opinion, legal reform, and how Canada handles cases involving young offenders.

In this episode, we revisit the murder of Lynne Harper and the conviction that changed the life of Steven Truscott. We’ll explore the flawed investigation, the trial’s key evidence, and how Steven’s fight for justice unfolded over nearly half a century.

For a deeper look into this case, we recommend the book Until You Are Dead by Julian Sher: https://www.amazon.ca/Until-You-Are-Dead-Truscotts/dp/0676973817

On November 26, 2023, 23-year-old Byron Watson left his auntie’s home on Lonsdale Street in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan. He told his family he’d be back later that day — but he never returned.

Byron, a member of the Nekaneet Cree Nation, was a well-known presence in the small community of Maple Creek. He worked at the local livestock auction barn, supported his brother at hockey games, and was planning to return to work in the oil fields that January. There was nothing unusual about the day he vanished — no signs of distress, no clear destination. He simply disappeared.

In the weeks and months that followed, Byron’s family and community launched extensive searches across Maple Creek and nearby Nekaneet territory. The RCMP conducted aerial searches and used drone technology, but Byron has still not been found.

If you have any information about Byron Watson’s disappearance, please contact Maple Creek RCMP or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.

In March 2006, 21-year-old Jessie Foster who was from Kamloops BC, vanished from North Las Vegas under circumstances that point to a disturbing pattern of trafficking and violence against women. Nearly two decades later, her case remains unsolved—but her story is far from forgotten.

In this episode, we partnered with Jessie's mother, Glendene Grant, whose tireless advocacy has kept Jessie’s name alive in the public eye. Glendene shares insight into Jessie’s life, the red flags that surfaced before her disappearance, and the unrelenting fight to bring her daughter home. We also explore the broader issues of exploitation and the systemic failures that allow victims to fall through the cracks. Glendene has become a powerful advocate for victims and families through her organization, Mothers Against Trafficked Humans—a group she founded in Jessie’s name: https://www.facebook.com/MothersAgainstTraffickingHumans/

This week on True North True Crime, we're stepping outside our usual format to offer a rare look behind the badge. Sergeant Chris Voller of the National Police Federation joins us for a candid conversation about the realities of frontline policing in 2025. Representing over 20,000 RCMP members across Canada, Chris sheds light on the challenges officers face—from under-resourcing and public perception to mental health and media narratives.

We explore the evolving demands of the job, the strain of working short-staffed, and the importance of context and balance in how cases—and officers—are portrayed in the media. Chris also shares his personal journey in policing, what led him to advocacy, and the work the NPF is doing to support those who protect Canadians.

It’s a nuanced, eye-opening discussion designed to help listeners understand the human side of policing.

In Part One, we shared Aspen Pallot’s vibrant life and the devastating impact of intimate partner violence.

Now, in Part Two, we follow her family’s painful journey through the Canadian justice system—a process that felt cold, slow, and disconnected. The trial hinged on intent: was Solaris Dey guilty of second-degree murder or manslaughter?

In the end, he was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to just two years in custody.

Then, in March 2024, Aspen’s family was retraumatized when Solaris was linked to another violent crime.

This episode examines the court’s decision, the system’s failures, and the ongoing toll on those left behind.

This week on True North True Crime, we’re joined by Jordan from The Nighttime Podcast to examine the troubling and still-unfolding case of Lily and Jack Sullivan, two young siblings who vanished from their rural property in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia, on the morning of May 2, 2025.

According to their parents, six-year-old Lily and four-year-old Jack may have wandered off while the couple was napping with their 16-month-old child inside the home. A massive search was launched, involving helicopters, drones, police dogs, and over 160 trained volunteers covering more than five square kilometers of dense terrain. Despite extensive efforts, no trace of the children has been found.

While the RCMP have been issuing frequent and detailed updates, public interest has fueled intense speculation and online misinformation. In this episode, we team up with Jordan to walk through the confirmed timeline, clear up what’s true and what’s not, and explore how digital discourse can complicate already delicate investigations.

Aspen Pallot was 19 years old when she was murdered by her boyfriend, 22-year-old Solaris Day, on October 3, 2018, in Richmond, British Columbia. In this first episode of a two-part series, we focus on Aspen’s life—who she was, how she loved, and the deep bond she shared with her family.

Aspen’s loved ones stood by her as she navigated a relationship that had become increasingly heavy. They extended care and compassion not just to Aspen, but also to Solaris—a young man who would ultimately cause unimaginable harm.

Through interviews with Aspen’s grandmother Roxanne and her uncle Randy, we hear about the vibrant, loving person she was—and how her loss continues to shape their lives.

On October 28, 2023, beloved actor Matthew Perry was found dead in his Los Angeles home. Initially reported as an accidental drowning, new evidence has emerged that suggests something far more sinister. In this episode, we examine the circumstances surrounding Perry’s final days, the details from multiple indictments, and the people now facing criminal charges in connection with his death.

Perry was open about his struggles with addiction and spent much of his later life trying to help others find recovery. Yet in his final days, he was taken advantage of by those who should have helped him. This episode also stands as a tribute to one of Canada’s most famous actors, a man who brought joy to millions through his work and whose legacy extends far beyond the screen.

In the spring of 2011, the community of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, was shaken by the suspicious death of 16-year-old Cody Dempster. He was found unresponsive in a downtown alley and later pronounced dead—his passing eventually ruled a homicide. The RCMP initially had suspects, but despite early leads, the case went cold. For over a decade, Cody’s family and friends remained silent. Now, for the first time, they’re speaking out. In this episode, we revisit Cody’s final moments, the early investigation, and the long fight for justice.

For years, Cody Dempster’s case remained unresolved. Then, in 2018, the file was taken over by a cold case unit, and investigators narrowed in on a suspect. But despite significant developments, no arrest was ever made. In this episode, we uncover who police believe is responsible for Cody’s death—and why they were never brought to trial. With insight from Cody’s best friend Alex, his older brother Ryan, and the officers who worked the case, we piece together the story of a boy who never got justice—and a family who is speaking out.

In this episode, we delve into the tragic deaths of Lucas Fowler, Chynna Deese, and Leonard Dyck—the victims of a horrifying crime spree that shocked Canada in 2019. Lucas and Chynna, a couple from Australia and the United States, were on a dream road trip in British Columbia when their lives were cut short in a brutal and senseless act of violence. We’ll explore their love story, their hopes for the future, and the profound loss felt by their families and communities.

We also remember Leonard Dyck, a dedicated and beloved member of his community, whose life was tragically taken during the same violent spree.

We’ll also detail the timeline and extensive manhunt that followed, showcasing the massive effort by Canadian authorities to locate Bryer Schmegelsky and Kam McLeod.

Amber Manthorne was last seen in her Vancouver Island community of Port Alberni on July 7, 2022, leaving her loved ones and the community searching for answers. Her white 2021 Jeep Compass was found abandoned two days later, near a logging road outside Nanaimo. In a chilling twist, security footage shows her ex-boyfriend, Justin Hall, driving her vehicle and struggling with a suitcase and a large plastic tote in the early hours of July 8. The large black plastic tote seen in the footage has never been recovered.

The RCMP now believe that Amber was likely the victim of foul play, with Hall as a key person of interest. Yet Hall's own death in Merritt last year has left police with more questions than answers, and Amber’s family still waits for closure. In this episode, we speak with Laura Palmer, host of the podcast Island Crime, who covered Amber’s case in-depth. Together, we examine the events surrounding Amber’s disappearance, the disturbing details caught on camera, and the lingering questions that haunt those still hoping for answers.

In this episode, we delve into the life and tragic death of Aldane “Dale” Mesquita, a devoted father and beloved son whose 2018 murder shocked the Edmonton community. Dale’s body was discovered in a van in Strathcona County, sparking an investigation that revealed the harrowing details of his final days which included kidnapping, criminal confinement, and torture.

We were honoured to sit down with Dale’s ex-wife, Tamara, who shares an intimate portrait of Dale’s life, his dreams, and his struggles. Through her heartfelt reflections, we learn about the man behind the headlines and the devastating impact his death has had on those who loved him.

The investigation led to multiple arrests and charges. Several men, including Omar Abdirizak Omar, Clement Fofie, Roger Rurangwa, and Mohammed Jawara, were charged with first-degree murder, kidnapping, and aggravated assault. Tyson Richard Clark and Jean Leon Musoni later faced similar charges. Authorities also seek Christian Nyabirungu, describing him as "armed and dangerous" and issuing a Canada-wide warrant for his arrest. Christian Nyabirungu is still WANTED.

In this episode, we explore the devastating case of Tori Dunn, a 30-year-old woman from Surrey, BC, who was tragically killed in her home in June 2024. The circumstances surrounding her death have sparked outrage, as the man accused, Adam Troy Mann, was released on bail despite a history of violent crimes.

We’ll take a closer look at the controversial "catch and release" bail system in Canada, questioning how someone with such a dangerous background could be free to commit another violent act. Through this episode, we aim to raise awareness of Tori Dunn’s story and advocate for meaningful changes in the Canadian justice system to better protect victims of crime and their families.

In an exclusive conversation, we speak with Tori’s father, Aron Dunn, who shares his pain and frustration, as well as his hopes for reform in the wake of his daughter’s tragic death. Join us as we shed light on a system that many believe is failing to keep Canadians safe and discuss the urgent need for change.

Sherry Corrigal, a 22-year-old woman from Nanaimo, has been missing since September 2023. Her disappearance is considered suspicious and deeply troubling by the Nanaimo RCMP, who have been actively investigating her case. Sherry was last seen in the downtown area of Nanaimo, and her lack of contact with family and friends is highly unusual.

Sherry is described as being 5 feet tall, weighing around 90 pounds, with long dark hair, and distinctive tattoos on her arms, hands, and back. Despite numerous searches, interviews, and the review of CCTV footage, there have been no significant leads. Her case remains a high priority for the investigators, who are urging anyone with information to come forward directly to the police, rather than sharing unverified details on social media.

Join us as we sit down with Jami, one of Sherry's foster mothers, who shares insights into Sherry's life and the emotional journey her loved ones have endured since her disappearance.

In this episode we dive into the murder of 20-year-old Laura Lopera. Colombian authorities have named Canadian Jesse Gilbert Wiseman as the prime suspect in the murder. Laura's body was found in a suitcase in Jesse Wiseman's Medellín apartment. The pair met on a dating app, and Wiseman left Colombia for Guatemala shortly before the body was discovered. The crime has sparked outrage, with preliminary investigations suggesting Lopera died on February 4, 2024. Wiseman's behaviour and verbal threats have raised concerns about potential abuse. Medellín's mayor has confirmed Wiseman’s identification and is seeking justice through Interpol.

We speak to Richard Emblin from The City Paper Bogota as well as a first-hand witness, Travis Ridgen, who believes he had a very strange run in with Jesse Wiseman on a VIA Rail train that was travelling from Vancouver to Winnipeg mid February 2024.

In Sparwood, B.C., tragedy struck when Joel Zimbalatti was found dead in his mobile home. Despite months passing since the incident, the details surrounding his death remain veiled in mystery. While one individual fled the scene before authorities arrived on Oct. 11, another, identified as "Slim" (real name Joshua Freeman), has emerged as a crucial person of interest. Joshua isn't the only person of interest though, a second man was taken into custody and released, and has since been uncooperative with the investigation.

Joel's mother Toni and his best friend Chris are pleading anyone with information on Slim's whereabouts to come forward.

Slim, described as a tall, thin white man with distinctive sideburns, was last sighted in the Kimberly area but is believed to have ties to the Okanagan region. With Slim's knowledge crucial to unravelling the events leading to Joel's death, authorities urge caution but implore anyone with information to contact them immediately.

To anyone with information regarding Joshua Freeman, the other person of interest, or the case in general, please call 1-877-987-8477. If sighted, do not approach; instead, contact authorities promptly by dialling 911.

On January 27th, 2008, Penny Boudreau and her daughter Karissa Boudreau went on a drive to have a heart-to-heart conversation about their relationship that had hit a rough patch since Karissa moved in with Penny and her new boyfriend in an apartment in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. A major snowstorm was set to hit the region that evening so Penny decided to stop at a grocery store on their way home, but when she came back out to the car, 12-year-old Karissa was nowhere to be found. The entire community was shell-shocked that a child could go missing in their town, but nothing could have prepared them for the truth.

In 2008, Blair Evan Donnelly was declared not criminally responsible for the tragic murder of his 16-year-old daughter, Stephanie Donnelly. This marked the beginning of a complex and unsettling journey within the criminal justice system. Just a year later, Blair was granted an unescorted day pass, during which he committed another violent offence by stabbing a friend. Fast forward to 2023, and Blair was once again granted an unescorted day pass, attending an event in Vancouver's Chinatown, where he stabbed three unsuspecting strangers.

These shocking and senseless acts of violence have sparked a heated debate about the treatment and monitoring of individuals like Blair. Join us as we explore the haunting details of this case, the implications for public safety, and the profound impact it has had on politicians, law enforcement, and the community at large.

In this episode, we delve into the mysterious disappearance of Carmel Gilmour, a 36-year-old mother from Parksville, whose van was found abandoned along the waterfront in Qualicum Beach five years ago. The investigation started on November 15th, 2017, when her boyfriend reported her missing, having last seen her the night before on Little Mountain.

Witnesses recall her acting confused and paranoid at a Liquor Depot the day prior.

Despite thorough searches and canvassing the area, police found no signs of struggle in her van, which appeared to have been her residence. Shockingly, it took seven days for authorities to flag the vehicle as suspicious since it had not moved. As we explore the timeline and circumstances, discover the details about Carmel's life leading up to her disappearance. Despite extensive efforts by law enforcement, Carmel's whereabouts remain unknown. The investigation rules out her boyfriend's involvement, leaving a haunting question: Where is Carmel Gilmour, and what secrets might the small town of Parksville be hiding?

As we detail the perplexing case, we'll explore the emotional toll on her family, the questions surrounding her sudden disappearance, and the haunting possibility that someone, or something, knows more than they're letting on.

In this episode, we delve into the perplexing disappearance of Lawrence Maitland from the heart of Lax Kw'alaams, a remote village in British Columbia. It has now been over four years since Lawrence mysteriously vanished, leaving his family and the police with more questions than answers.

Lawrence was last spotted in mid-July of 2019, pushing his bicycle along Victoria Street. What makes his case even more baffling is the circumstances surrounding his disappearance. His keys and wallet were found untouched in his home, doors unlocked and lights still on.

From the very beginning, law enforcement suspected foul play, and the North District Major Crime Unit was brought in to assist the Prince Rupert RCMP. Yet, despite their relentless efforts, Lawrence Maitland remains missing, leaving his family in a painful limbo of uncertainty.

In this episode, we hear from Lawrence's family members, who passionately plead for anyone with information to come forward. They firmly believe that someone out there holds the key to solving this mystery and bringing their loved one home.

Lawrence Maitland is described as a 44-year-old Indigenous man, standing at 5'9" and weighing 187 lbs. He has distinctive features, including slicked-back black hair and a black goatee.

If you have any information that could shed light on Lawrence Maitland's disappearance, please contact the Prince Rupert RCMP at (250) 627-0700. Join us as we shine a spotlight on this perplexing case and strive to bring closure to Lawrence's family and the community that cares deeply about his well-being.

On January 7th, 2015, a tragic event unfolded in Wyses Corner, Nova Scotia, leaving an indelible mark on a local family. The lives of Bill, Ida, and Ann Ward were tragically cut short when they were discovered deceased in their Wyses Corner residence following a house fire. However, the fire itself was not the cause of their untimely deaths. The unfortunate incident was linked to 30-year-old Codey Hennigar, who happened to be Ann's son and the grandson of Bill and Ida. Codey had been grappling with untreated schizophrenia while residing on the Wyses Corner property, leading to this heartbreaking outcome. This case prompts us to confront a challenging question: Is there ever a justifiable circumstance in which we should administer medication to an adult against their will?
