<p>We're announcing something special for episode 200. Thank you so much for listening!</p><br><p><strong>Launching January 19, <em>Robert Pickton: The Final Chapter</em> is a completely new series that revisits the case to date.</strong></p><p>In 2024, Canada’s most prolific serial killer was murdered in prison in an act of vigilante justice. Pickton's final chapter may now be closed, but the story is far from over. Pickton confessed to murdering 49 women - many of them sex workers and Indigenous women. The evidence suggests he did not act alone.</p><br><p>It's been eight years since we first covered this case, and we've gone back to the beginning with a complete re-write, fresh context, a sharper focus and up-to-date information. This four-part series moves past the grotesque caricature of a lone monster in buddy boots, and restores the humanity of the women targeted through personal stories of those who loved them. Why are they left with so many unanswered questions — and a prevailing sense of injustice?</p><br><p>Proceeds are being donated to the <a href="https://wish-vancouver.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>WISH Drop-in Centre Society,</u></a> supporting street-based sex workers on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside since 1984.</p><br><p><strong>Don't forget to sign the Johnson-Bently family's petition:</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.change.org/p/deny-parole-in-2026-for-convicted-mass-murderer-david-ennis-aka-david-shearing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>Help the Johnson Bentley families prepare </u></a>for an upcoming Parole hearing - <a href="https://www.canadiantruecrime.ca/episodes/86" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>listen to the Wells Gray Park episode</u></a>.</p><br><p><strong>Learn more about Canadian True Crime:</strong></p><p>www.canadiantruecrime.ca</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
