The Murder of Robert LeVoir

FORT McMURRAY | In 2002, the family of 25-year-old DJ Robert LeVoir reported him missing after they hadn't heard from him for two weeks. But the RCMP didn't seem to be doing much to help, in fact they didn't publicly announce Robert's disappearance for 8 months.

Understandably frustrated by the lack of progress, his family had no way of knowing that an elaborate plan to discover what had happened to Robert was already being set in motion behind closed doors.

Correction note: since releasing this episode, we've been advised that Robert LeVoir's surname isn't the French pronunciation; it's instead pronounced Le-Vor. We're not able to correct all the instances of this in the episode, but our sincere apologies to anyone affected by this error.

The Trial of Hedley’s Jacob Hoggard—Part 1

[Part 1 of 5]

CONTENT WARNING: Graphic details of violent sexual assault and allegations involving a minor.

FROM CANADIAN IDOL TO CONVICTED SEX OFFENDER

As frontman for the pop-rock band Hedley, Jacob Hoggard was known for pushing boundaries—both on and off the stage.

By 2022 he would also be known as one of Canada's most notorious sex offenders. How did his behaviour go unchecked for so long?

This series explores how the rise and downfall of Jacob Hoggard in the era of #metoo, and how myths around consent, rape and groupie culture continue to dominate the social discourse... and our criminal justice system.
