When the truth was finally about to catch up with him, Menhaz Zaman saw murder as his only way out. Intro and outro music: I Knew a Guy by Kevin MacLeod Email us at

Speaking Ill of the Dead
One of--if not the most--prolific art thieves in Canadian history is a guy you've never heard of. In fact, no one suspected John Mark Tillmann of having walked away with thousands of artifacts and antiques, but he did and he did it with style. Also he was an enormous jerk.

A Recipe for Flight
True story: Warlock is one of Rachel's favourite movies. Also true is that, sadly, it served as inspiration for a brutal murder in which a little boy full of life was killed by his neighbour. Read about it in MacLean's and Life Daily. Learn more about moral panics at Psychology Today. Tweet us @tnc_pod Facebook us @truenorthcrimepod Email us at

What's in a name?
Ian Thor Greene was a mystery wrapped in an enigma, wrapped in the persona of an undergraduate student at Dalhousie University. It would take some time, but eventually the cops would come to know his real name and close the case on three violent attacks in Halifax. A great article about this terrible person can be read at Halifax Magazine. Tweet us @tnc_pod Facebook us at @truenorthcrimepod Email us at
