Who Killed Theresa - The Podcast

I have some follow-up thoughts on the 1985 murder of Francine Da Sylva, but in order to get there, I need to revisit two other unsolved murders we've covered: the 1979 death of Nicole Gaudreault and the 1975 strangulation and incineration of Diane Thibeault.

Solving for x involves bringing an unknown variable to one side, then seeing how other elements line up with that variable - that's what we're going to do here – move and reconsider some variables.

"I am prone to playing the moral card as much as anyone. And anytime I pull it, I think twice because it feels dishonest and opportunistic. I don’t need to add that baggage. I prefer to employ a soft advocacy; if you create an awareness of the justice problem, that should be enough—no need to bray about it. I’m the brother of a murder victim: that’s my calling card."

Sarah Weinman doesn’t need to separate herself from the “Wikipedia Browns.” She’s a gifted writer who should stop apologizing for the lurid dominion that interests her and embrace it with relentles…

"If you want the example of primal ancient blood lust, look no further than the Greeks. The whole of Greek Tragedy constitutes under 40 plays by three guys: Sophocles, Euripides, and Aeschylus. And these are nasty plays; there's regicide, infanticide, dismemberments, and the daily eating of a guy's liver by a bird."

“Before the enormity of the Sphinx, they would discuss the desert heat.”

Is it Luc Gregoire? The eyes see what they want to see. If Gregoire was criminally active on the island of Montreal as early as 1977, it casts a whole new perspective on a catalog of the city’s unsolved murders:

Here's a fun fact: I did not know it was the 15th anniversary of Marilyn Bergeron's disappearance when I decided to pair it with a story about the 15 puzzle.

Have you heard of Puzzle 15?

I bet you have, you just don't know it. You know those 4 x 4 tile scrambles where you have to rearrange the sliding pieces into an image? Popeye? The Flinstones? That's the 15 puzzle, sometimes called Gem, Boss, or Mystic Square.

Bagatelle – The 1990 murder of Lise Brisebois

I have a case that is child’s play; the 1990 murder of 23-year-old Lise Brisebois. It’s a wonder a suspect has never been mentioned as an obvious candidate has been geographically under…

Do you know bagatelle? You know bagatelle probably from the handheld pinball incantation from your childhood. The word "bagatelle" means a "trifle" or simply "child's play." I have a case that is child's play; the 1990 murder of 23-year-old Lise Brisebois. It's a wonder a suspect has never been ment...

« Par exemple, la Sûreté du Québec à Sherbrooke m’a dit que les sous-vêtements de ma sœur avaient été détruits cinq ans après le meurtre », dit-il.

Et son cas n’est pas isolé, ajoute M. Allore. « Je fais ça depuis 20 ans, et j’ai parlé à tellement de familles de victimes qui se sont fait dire la même chose. L’ADN n’est plus là pour être analysé », dit M. Allore, qui anime également l’émission balado Who Killed Theresa ? qui porte sur les meurtres non résolus au Québec.

« Je suis content si ça peut aider à résoudre des crimes, mais je ne retiens pas mon souffle », dit-il.

Utiliser l’information génétique pour identifier un criminel qui n’a jamais fourni d’ADN et n’est fiché dans aucune base de données : voilà le pouvoir de la généalogie génétique. Une nouvelle technique déjà utilisée par des corps de police du Canada, et aussi potentiellement du Q...
