About this episode

The episode discusses the case of Robert Pickton, a serial killer linked to the disappearance of women in Vancouver's Downtown East Side during the 1990s.

In the 1990s, women began disappearing from Vancouver’s Downtown East Side: many of them Indigenous, many of them sex workers, many of them dismissed as transient or unreliable. A survivor of a violent 1997 attack identified her assailant as pig farmer Robert Pickton, but the charges were stayed and the investigation stalled. As the list of missing women grew, anonymous tips, witness statements, and internal warnings all pointed back to one property in Port Coquitlam. Morgan and Kaelyn trace the clues that were overlooked, the search that finally uncovered human remains on the farm, and the systemic failures that allowed one of Canada’s most notorious serial killers to operate for years.
