About this listen
Sixteen-year-old Ramona Wilson never made it to her friend’s graduation dance. Ten months later, her remains were discovered in the woods behind the Smithers airport — the same area her mother had begged police to search.
In this episode, we walk through Ramona’s final day, the delayed investigation, and the legacy her family has built in the decades since. Her name now echoes among hundreds of Indigenous women and girls lost along Highway 16.
This is not just one unsolved case — it's a reflection of a national crisis. And Ramona’s story deserves to be heard.
