The Police Officer and the Priest (from Stolen: Surviving St. Michael’s)
One night back in the late 1970s, an officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police pulled over a suspected drunk driver. When he walked up to the vehicle, he came face-to-face with a ghost from his past: a residential school priest. That officer was journalist Connie Walker’s late father. What happened that night on the side of the road compelled her to return home to Saskatchewan nearly 40 years later to try to investigate a secret in her own family. What she uncovers is a much bigger story.

Episode 7 - Shadow Of A Doubt
The threat against an informant that was reported in the pharmacy burglary report wasn't factored into Kevin's trial. But this isn't the only questionable conduct during the case.

Episode 6 - Puzzle Pieces
Kim explores the implications of the burglary ring on Kevin's case, including a threat that, per police reports, was made against Rudel Chatman and the credibility of the police that investigated the ring. The recorded threat that Rodney Melton made was not reported to Kevin's defense counsel before or during his trial. Kevin's legal team argues that this is a Brady violation, and that's a serious breach of due process. Was this merely negligence? What does this mean for Kevin's case?

Episode 5 - The Ring
The shooting at the Bucyrus Estates wasn’t the only criminal activity reported happening in the Crawford County area. The police connected Kevin’s recent drug arrest to the murders, as potential motive… but were there more people who might have had similar motivations? Could an organized crime ring that was operating right up to the murders also fits the bill? And why wasn't this brought up before Kevin’s trial in 1994?
