Robert Pickton - Part 3- The Women

February 15, 2026 • 79 mins

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same.

This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
