The Monster of Miramichi
<p>Content warning: This episode includes discussion of violence and sexual assault.</p><br><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we head to the Miramichi region of <a href="about:blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>New Brunswick</strong></a>, where one escaped inmate turned everyday life into a months-long nightmare. We walk through the full, verified timeline behind the man known as “The Monster of the Miramichi”: the early crime that landed him in prison, the 1989 escape that triggered a massive manhunt, the terrifying series of attacks that followed, and the investigative breakthroughs—including the early use of DNA evidence in Canada—that helped secure a conviction.</p><br><p>This story isn’t told for shock value.

Missing: Jaimee Lee Miller
<p>In late 2015, 30-year-old mother of three Jaimee Lee Miller was reported missing from the Barrie, Ontario area after family and friends last had contact with her in mid-October. Months later, on March 16, 2016, her remains were discovered in a wooded area off Gill Road in Springwater Township, north of Barrie. Police and the Office of the Chief Coroner determined her death was a homicide, and a joint investigation between the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch and Barrie Police Service continues. A $50,000 provincial reward was offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction, but the case remains unsolved. </p><br><p><br></p><p><a href="https://ontariocrimestoppers.ca/submit-a-tip/submit-a-tip" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ontariocrimestoppers.ca/submit-a-tip/submit-a-tip</a></p><br><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/mental-health-services/mental-health-get-help.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/mental-health-services/mental-health-get-help.html</a></p><br><p><br></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Barrie Police Service – Homicide Investigations (Jaimee Miller section) (official case summary + tip info) </li><li>OPP Reward Poster (PDF) – Jaimee Lee Miller (official provincial reward notice) </li><li>CityNews (Nov 1, 2021) – “Tracking a Killer: Jaimee Lee Miller” (family quotes + case recap) </li><li>Global News (Nov 2, 2017) – Police appeal for help (public appeal + reward mention) </li><li>Bayshore Broadcasting / 89.1 Max FM (Oct 8, 2016) – Reward coverage (reward announcement recap) </li></ul><p><br></p><p>https://buymeacoffee.com/DarkRoast.DarkCrime</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
