Dusting for Prints: Policing, Culture & Culprits with Lorimer Shenher (Coming December 15, 2021)

Lorimer Shenher is a former Homicide detective, forensic interviewer, journalist, and author of "That Lonely Section of Hell: The Botched Investigation of a Serial Killer Who Almost Got Away" chronicling the failings of Vancouver's Missing Women investigation. He brings his unique perspective and an MA in Communications to shine a powerful light into the dark corners of policing as an unjust system and a profession & culture that's boundlessly fascinating to film, television, and reading audiences. In conversation with a new guest each week, Lorimer explores the intersections of policing, race, queer identity, Indigenous Reconciliation, entertainment, and culture. Through Season One's six compelling interviews, he'll delve into the personal, the political, and the portrayal of policing—and maybe even have some laughs along the way.
