Big thank you to Kristi Lee of Canadian True Crime Podcast for being gracious enough to do the intro for this episode. We loved hearing our names pronounced with that awesome Aussie accent. Check her podcast out. In her latest episode, part 3 of her 4 part series on Robert Pickton, you can hear a goofy promo from us at the end (our first one ever on another podcast).

The Karissa Boudreau Murder (NS)
In Episode 007, we head off to Mike's hometown, Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, and in particular the nieghbourhood where he grew up. Whenever Mike goes home to Bridgewater he always makes a visit to the place where Karissa Boudreau's body was found down the bank near the water just on the border between the town and Conquerall Bank in 2009. Karissa's mother, Penny Boudreau, murdered her 12-year-old daughter then hid her body and reported the youngster missing. After that Penny made seeming emotional pleas for Karissa's safe return in the media. When the truth came out the town was mortified at the cold depravity of Penny's acts, motivated, she claimed, by the desire to keep a boyfriend.
