About this listen

ALBERTA - A two-part series.


One Sunday in Medicine Hat, AB, a little boy peered through the window of a neighbour’s home and discovered a scene so horrific it would shock even seasoned police officers.

As a frantic search began for a missing 12-year-old girl, the case took an even darker turn.
