In the 1990s, women began disappearing from Vancouver’s Downtown East Side: many of them Indigenous, many of them sex workers, and many of them dismissed by authorities as transient or unreliable. As the list of missing women grew, early warnings about a local pig farmer named Robert Pickton were ignored. A 1997 survivor identified Pickton after a violent attack. Anonymous tips, witness accounts, and internal concerns all pointed toward one property in Port Coquitlam but no action was taken. When police finally searched the farm in 2002, they uncovered evidence that would expose one of Canada’s most notorious serial killers. In this episode of Clues, Morgan and Kaelyn break down the Robert Pickton case, the investigative failures that allowed him to operate for years, and the broader impact on the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis in Canada.
