    ONTARIO


    [Part 1 of 2 ] On a dark icy evening at a suburban Toronto subway station, a parking lot attendant came across an odd sight: protruding out of the driver’s side window of a tan Mustang, was a pair of legs.


    They belonged to a 36-year-old lawyer. And he was dead. The investigation that ensued uncovered a deadly tale of sex, lies, betrayal and corruption, that would be called Canada’s version of “Double Indemnity”.


    The intention of this series is to take a look back at a shocking crime sensationalized through headlines and reveal the inner workings of the criminal justice system.

    If you happen to know anyone related to this case, please respect their privacy.


    Special thanks to Barbara Cooper, and Erik Krosby for voiceover, and Terry O’Reilly of CBC Podcasts’ Under the Influence with Terry O’Reilly (in Part 2).


    Part 2 will be released to all in a week.

    Part 2 is available right now for premium feed subscribers on Amazon Music (included with Prime), Apple Podcasts, Patreon and Supercast.

    ALBERTA


    An elderly woman is found dead in her own home, the victim of a brutally violent attack in a typically sleepy community. At first it appears to be a robbery gone wrong, but further investigation reveals a complex web of lies — and a much more disturbing truth.


    The intention of this episode is to take a detailed look back at a tragic crime that played out through the media and highlight the societal problems that contributed to it.

    To protect and respect the privacy of those close to the case, some names have been changed.
