  • Who Killed Sonia?
    2026/01/27
    Police say they won’t quit until they find Sonia Varaschin’s killer. The investigation into the 42-year-old nurse’s death began when she didn’t show up for work at a Mississauga pharmaceutical company. Her remains were discovered a week later in Caledon, approximately 12 kilometres from her home. Investigators say she was “brutally murdered in her residence” in Orangeville. But Sonia’s family questions why it’s taking so long to make an arrest. Will new leads solve this 10-year-old cold case?

  • Closure
    2025/12/30
    In 1983, Susan Tice, a 45-year-old mother of four was found raped and stabbed to death in her Toronto home. Four months later, across town, 22-year-old Erin Gilmour returns home from work and is attacked the same way. The women didn’t know each other, and both cases remained unsolved for decades. In 2000, DNA profiles from each crime proved their attacker was the same man – but didn’t reveal his identity. It would take another 20 years, but thanks to genetic genealogy research, the killer was arrested, charged and convicted, bringing a measure of closure for the victims’ families.
