Episode 38 - On May 16th, 2022, the partial remains of a woman were discovered in a garbage bin behind an apartment building in Winnipeg. The resulting investigation pointed towards the work of a serial killer and as time went on more people would be linked to this case. As of now in 2025, 4 indigenous women have been officially identified as victims however, finding these women’s bodies was a different story and one that was compounded heavily by politics. The investigation into finding some of the missing women was stalled and resisted. But why? In this episode we are going to discuss the timeline of the murders, who committed these crimes, and why recovering the bodies was delayed and even disregarded by both police and the provincial government.
