The Redpath Mansion Murder Mystery | with Jesse Ikeman
Re-Release of a classic episode. In 1901, one of Canada’s most wealthy and powerful families found themselves players in a real murder mystery. Ada Redpath and her son, Jocelyn Clifford Redpath, were found shot to death in their home. The murder weapon (or weapons) were found near the bodies, and it was concluded to be a murder-suicide. Why then is this a mystery? Police never investigated, the bodies were hastily buried, and the Redpath family never spoke of that night. It’s a story filled with secrets and, maybe, lies.  With special guest, filmmaker Jesse Ikeman from the Business of Film Podcast!Theme Music by Matt Glass https://www.glassbrain.com/Instagram: @astudyofstrange Website: www.astudyofstrange.comHosted by Michael May Email stories, comments, or ideas to [email protected]! ©2026 Convergent Content, LLC ----- Links:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvdCKGN3pZ0 https://mcgillnews.mcgill.ca/s/1762/news/interior.aspx?sid=1762&gid=2&pgid=1224#:~:text=In%20the%20Redpath%20manor%2C%20servants,He%20perished%20hours%20later. https://www.canadianmysteries.ca/sites/redpath/interpretations/indexen.html https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maison_Redpath https://journals.lib.unb.ca/index.php/mcr/article/view/18717/20459 https://www.mysteryquests.ca/quests/31/indexen.html https://www.amazon.com/Redpath-History-Sugar-House-v/dp/0920474675 https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-redpath-canadian-bakebook-redpath-sugar-ltd/1125315060 https://medium.com/unsolved-canadian/was-there-a-murder-at-the-redpath-manor-84d7223ddc60 https://www.jhmoncrieff.com/r-is-for-redpath-mansion-murders/ https://www.frsthand.com/story/the-redpath-mansion-mystery https://dailyunsolvedmysteries.tumblr.com/ https://torontosun.com/news/local-news/the-other-redpath-mansion-mystery https://www.google.com/maps/place/1065+R.+Sherbrooke+E,+Montr%C3%A9al,+QC+H2L+1L5,+Canada/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x4cc91bb64216fb15:0xc38a048146b94303?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjbnMvl7fn8AhUKOkQIHQ1vBVEQ8gF6BAgSEAIDive deeper into true crime, unsolved mysteries, and tales of high strangeness each week on A Study of Strange.
