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.

In this episode of Dark Roast & Dark Crimes, Keltee tells the story of Theresa Allore, a 19-year-old college student who vanished from the Eastern Townships of Quebec in November 1978. Months later, Theresa was found in a rural creek — and what followed was decades of unanswered questions, investigative missteps, and a family refusing to let her name fade into the background. We’ll walk through the timeline, the key evidence, and how Theresa’s brother John Allore turned grief into a relentless fight for truth and accountability.
