Episode 21: The Pickton Pig Farm Murders

January 17, 2022Episode 21

From a poster with photos of missing women displayed during the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry public forum in Vancouver, B.C., on Wednesday, January 19, 2011.

This week, Andrew + Kirsten tackle their first listener’s choice case, and, fam, it’s a doozy. Come along as they discuss the most sinister and prolific serial killer in Canadian history, how he exploited the prevalent misogyny and racism to prey on vulnerable women for years, and the cultural reverberations that continue to this day.
