Summary

24 year old Cortney Lake was last seen the evening of June 7, 2017 in the area of her Mount Pearl, NL home. At the time of her disappearance, Cortney’s life was in a state somewhere between transition and turmoil. An ex boyfriend had just been released from prison for a series of crimes against her, whereas another ex, the father of her young son, was pressuring her to rekindle the romantic relationship the pair ended years prior. When her whereabouts were unaccounted for, suspicions were directed towards both of these me as well as her current boyfriend. The story that will unfold will be remembered as one of Newfoundland’s darkest crimes. In this episode of Nighttime, I will be using excerpts from a long form interview with Cortney’s mom Lisa Lake. Our topic is the disappearance and murder of Cortney Lake Links referenced in the episode: Help Us Find Cortney!
