Someone Knows Something

Following the critically acclaimed series Hunting Warhead, Season 2: Hunting the Suicide Salesman follows host Daemon Fairless as he takes us inside another dark corner of the internet: the online world helping people take their own lives. When people around the world started killing themselves with an obscure substance a few years ago, police were unaware that something – someone – was tying many of these deaths together.

It took grieving families and investigative journalists to piece together what was actually happening and to trace the source of the substance – first, to an online suicide forum and then, to a salesman in Canada: Kenneth Law. Police believe he sent more than 1200 shipments to 41 countries… and may be connected to more than 145 deaths around the world.

In Episode 6, David and Sebastien speak again, to go over some theories and see if, step-by-step they can map out everyone's whereabouts on the day and evening that Jackie disappeared.

David follows leads to investigate a taxi tip. And more eye witnesses who may have seen Jackie in the days after she disappeared. Or did they?

Digging deeper, David talks to an eye witness who says she saw something the night Jackie disappeared. David works with producer María José Burgos to call the authorities to get access to Jackie's investigative file. What did police find? Did they have a suspect?

David talks to the neighbours and others in town, and tracks down security guards from Jaclyn’s gated community. Gathering the fragments. What did people see or hear? Where did Jackie go?

Sebastién reveals some of the cracks beneath he and Jaclyn’s relationship and tells the story of what he remembers from Jackie's last day. 

Jaclyn Ferland-Smith moved to Playa del Coco with her husband Sebastien to find and build a new life. But then Jackie disappears, with no trace found. Jackie's family, with David's help, begins the process of picking up the pieces.
