24 DEC 2022 · Monday, December 22, 1975, was a busy day in Dartmouth, a small eastern Canadian city bordering the Atlantic Ocean. The weather was getting colder, and the nights were at their longest. It had snowed a bit that day, but it was relatively mild for the time of year. Cpl. Eric Spicer had a shift starting at midnight on the 23rd, but there were lots to do before. He was reprising his role as Santa Claus at the annual police club's Children's party for a few hours before going on duty. He loved the holidays and couldn't wait until after his shift to spend the morning with his two little girls, under four. If only they had known, he would be gone a few hours later. Eric Spicer was very involved in his community, not only as a respected police officer but as a kind and helpful person. He spent much time teaching Sunday school and working at various school dances. In addition, he was incredibly kind to the local children, often bringing them balls to play stick hockey. Keith McCallum was preparing for his shift, too, presumedly dressing for the weather and combing his thick dark hair. He worked as a taxi driver for Bob's Taxi and had only been in the Dartmouth/Halifax area for under a year. He was originally from the village of Bible Hill, approximately 96 km (60 miles) north of Halifax. Little did anyone know that their paths would cross shortly within their shifts, and their lives would be cut short by an assailant. This is episode 46, Cpl. Eric Spicer and Keith McCallum's story.

13 JUN 2022 · It was the wee hours of the morning; mostly everyone was asleep. It was cold and snowy, and no one was around to witness a young woman's horrible and heinous death in the parking lot behind a building in a fairly residential area. But it was a death six years in the making and could have been prevented. And although changes were made to the system in Ontario because of what happened to our victim, it was a hefty price to pay.

15 JUN 2021 · Jessica was the quintessential small-town girl. Quiet, timid, nice and respectful. She wanted to live her life, have a family and grow old with someone special. Her dreams were seemingly cut short in August 1996. This is part 2 of Jessica Estabrooks’ story, Mr. Big. For this episode, I’ve had the opportunity to speak to both previous owners, Dawn & Tony of the Domino’s pizza where Shane and Jessica both worked. At the time Dawn and Tony had younger children at home and Jessica would often care for them as a way of earning additional funds. She was their babysitter. Remember when Jessica told her dad that she wasn’t babysitting anymore and was looking for another job? Yes, this couple knew Jessica and Shane a little more than a passing stranger. If anyone has information on the murder of Jessica Estabrooks, please contact the RCMP Major Crime Unit (south) in NB at 1-506-452-3491 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), should you wish to remain anonymous.

31 MAY 2021 · Let me set the stage for you. Today we’re travelling to the southern part of the province of New Brunswick, a small Canadian province the hugs the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. A place where you can take a deep breath and instantly relax as you inhale the salt air. A place where you can glimpse the aurora borealis at the right time of the year. A place surrounded by friendly people…most of the time. Specifically, we’re travelling to the city of Moncton and the village of Dorchester, and the stretch of road and waterways between the two. You may have heard of these two places before in a two-part series in season 1 of this podcast. However, our story today remains unresolved and even though the community, family, and law enforcement believe they know what happened, no one has yet been charged, indicted or convicted. I want to remind people that the opinions I might allude to in this episode as well as the opinions of anyone I interview are just that, opinions. It’s up to you to decide your own opinion. Anyone that we may refer to has been named or listed by media in the past. They should be considered innocent until proven otherwise in a court of law. But, maybe you the listeners, hold the key in making sure this person gets the chance to potentially be proven otherwise in court. Today’s story is about a young woman, Jessica Lynn Estabrooks. You see, Jessica and I have something in common, we’re from the same small village. Did I know her? Not really; I’ve seen her in town, of course, I knew of her, and we rode the same yellow school bus to and from school, during high school. She was a couple of years older than me, and at that age, you’re really years apart. But what happened to Jessica affected a whole community, in more ways than one. A community, that despite the maximum-security prison that sat upon the highest hill, felt connected and safe. Of course, the events affected Jessica’s family and closest friends the most, how could it not?

6 APR 2021 · A heinous act followed by solid police work. A trial filled with a litany of labels against the victim, leading and tickling conscious or unconscious bias and unjust stereotypes, holding a mirror up to the Canadian populace. Coast to coast outrage, would the Canadian justice system change? This is episode 40, the Yellowhead Inn, Cindy Gladue's story. Cindy met Bradley the evening before. On this evening she, Bradley, and his co-worker Kevin stayed in the hotel lounge at The Yellowhead Inn, where Bradley was staying, until just after the last call. They continued to drink for the rest of the evening. Bradley was showing affection toward Cindy throughout the evening. The three of them left together and walked down the dimly lit hallway towards their respective rooms. This was at 12:42 am on June 22. Cindy was clearly intoxicated. She was swaying as she walked and would grab towards the wall and lean on Bradley several times as they walked down that hall. As they walked down the hall, Bradley asked Kevin if he "wanted a piece of this," referring to Cindy. Kevin declined and told him that he just wanted to eat his food and go to bed. Bradley then said, "Kev, what happens on the road stays on the road; it doesn't get back home." But when the door closed behind Cindy, as she entered that room, it would prove to be a tragic evening, ending her life.

18 JAN 2021 · "I don't think he left that house alive" ~ Dee. It was the end of August, the last day in fact, and Cory's day started like any other...at the gym. He was in a good mood and joking around; he'd lost a few pounds and was going to need to double down on some eating to gain that weight back.

28 NOV 2020 · Robert Wagner, known as Robbie to his friends and family, is fondly remembered. He was an enterprising and intelligent young man who found himself down a path that may have unknowingly lead to his brutal murder. About 3 weeks before he was viciously struck down, Robbie confided in his brother-in-law that he didn't have much time left in this world. And he didn't. By mid-January, his life would end. The case is cold, but the Major crime unit would move it to the top of their priority list if new information was provided. Anyone with information about this murder is asked to call police at 519-653-7700 ext. 739 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800- 222-TIPS (1-800-222- 8477). Huge thanks to Podcorn for sponsoring this episode.
