Tanner Krupa Jun 27, 2021

Show notes

Tanner Krupa’s murder remains unsolved. Can you help?

In the early morning hours of Sunday, August 20th, 2017 the body of a young man was found in a laneway in Surrey, British Columbia. The local RCMP, who are used to escalating gang violence in the area, were immediately perplexed as to the ID of the 19-year-old. He was not known to the police. He was not even from British Columbia.

1100kms away in Edmonton, Alberta a family and a mother were about to receive the most devastating news possible. Their son, brother, and friend had tragically lost his life in the darkness of that summer night.

But why? Why him? And more importantly who did this?

If you have any information about this case, call IHIT or your local police department. To remain anonymous call Crimestoppers.

MISSING: Colten Fleury Jun 14, 2021

Show notes

On May 27, 2021, Canadians collectively sat back in horror at the discovery of the bodies of 215 Indigenous children. Their remains were found in an unmarked burial site on the grounds of a now-closed residential school in Kamloops British Columbia.

As we live in the dark shadow of this news, a 16-year-old First Nations boy has been missing for 3 years.

The young teen was released from Government care to his mother on May 2nd, 2018. The very next day he seemed to just vanish. He has never been found. Stories like the one we are about to tell have lead many people to ask if a comparison can be made with the history of Residential Schools and the present-day system of the Government apprehension of Indigenous children.

This episode is not just a story about a missing child. It is a story about a system. It's also the story of a mom fighting to see her son again. This is the disappearance of Colten Fleury. Thank you for listening!

Barbara Stoppel - Part 2 Apr 04, 2021

Show notes

In 1981 a 16-year-old high school student was murdered as she closed the donut shop she worked at.

Thomas Sophonow was wrongfully convicted for the crime.

For years Thomas and the victim's family would plead unsuccessfully to those in power to find the person who committed the murder.

Eventually, the file would be reopened by Winnipeg Police and what it revealed was shocking.

A serial killer, rapist, and child molester stayed on the streets for 2 decades. In his wake, he left victims all across North America.

His name was Terry Arnold. Thank you for listening!
