Summary

The case of a beloved 16-year-old girl who didn't return home one night—and the many questionable decisions made by authorities that could have inadvertently saved her life.


The intention of this episode is to highlight how cases involving missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls are often treated differently at every stage of the criminal justice process, as per Reclaiming Power and Place, the final report of the National Inquiry into #MMIWG.


Additional content warning: this episode is about the murder and possible sexual assault of an underage girl.


This month, Canadian True Crime has donated to Justice for Girls Outreach Society
