Summary

February 2, 2008. Saanich, British Columbia. 24-year old real estate agent Lindsay Buziak arrives for an appointment to show an expensive suburban house to an unidentified man and woman. When Lindsay’s boyfriend goes inside the residence to check on her, he discovers that she has been stabbed over 40 times and the mysterious couple have fled the scene. Over the years, there are a number of unconfirmed theories surrounding Lindsay’s murder. Even though Lindsay’s boyfriend and his family are cleared as suspects by the police, speculation still abounds that they were involved in the murder. It is also theorized that Lindsay’s death was connected to a massive drug bust and she may have been the victim of a professional hit. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore one of Canada’s most infamous unsolved cold cases, which has yet to reach a resolution after 15 years. Special thanks to listener Melissa Holman for narrating the opening of this episode. If you have any information about this case, please contact the Saanich Police Department at (250) 475-4356.
