INTRODUCING — Missing and Murdered
Thin Black Line reveals how a single case can reveal something vast and complex. In the same way the CBC podcast Missing & Murdered investigates a deeply disturbing phenomenon — the disappearance and killing of Indigenous women in Canada and parts of the United States. Hosted by award-winning investigative reporter Connie Walker, this gripping series unravels the mystery of two unsolved murders. Along the way Connie tracks down witnesses never spoken to by police and uncovers callous indifference to the fate of vulnerable women and their heartbroken families as well as startling new leads in the search for answers. Resonating strongly with the trauma of the stolen generations, season two of Missing & Murdered: Finding Cleo is a also a deeply thought-provoking story about the traces we leave, and how fragile those traces can be.
