This week, Alex is joined by True Crime Cat Lawyer podcast host, Elyse, to discuss three cases involving Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women. Alex discusses the unsolved murder of Helen Gilling’s, whose life was cut short in 1995 in Hamilton, Ontario. Elyse tackles the disappearance of Caitlin Potts, who was last seen in Enderby British Columbia, in 2016, and the disappearance of Angeline Pete, who has been missing from the North Vancouver area since 2011.
