National Park After Dark

251: Murder of Six. Wells Gray Provincial Park. Part 2.


Listen Later

In August of 1982, three generations of one family went on a two week vacation into the mountains of British Columbia. Over a year later, David Shearing was arrested and went to trial for all six of their murders. But as time went on, the details of what happened that night and in the days that followed emerged, and were more horrific than anyone could have anticipated.
