Summary

ONTARIO - A three-part series. After a rural Ontario farmer makes a shocking discovery on a field, the quiet village of Shedden finds itself the backdrop to one of Canada’s most infamous mass murders.

It was the bloody culmination of shifting alliances in the outlaw biker underworld in Canada—but it’s also a deeper story about a search for connection and belonging… that ultimately ended in a senseless tragedy.

The intention of this episode is to take a detailed look back at a shocking crime sensationalized through headlines.

Parts 2 and 3 of this series will be released to everyone a week apart.

Look out for early, ad-free release on CTC premium feeds: available on Amazon Music (included with Prime), Apple Podcasts, Patreon and Supercast.

Canadian True Crime donates monthly to help those facing injustice.

This month we have donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association.
