Between 1978 and 2001, at least 65 women were reported missing from the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, BC. Police in Vancouver refused to believe or acknowledge that a serial killer might be active in the area, and families often had a difficult time getting their loved ones reported missing due to their socioeconomic status. This is Part 2 of the case of Robert Pickton and the missing women of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
