Clicking through a camp ledger and a misrouted telegram, this episode confronts a loaded glass syringe found standing upright inside Heather Dixon’s shoe on October 4, 1936 - yet her death certificate, signed that morning, recorded hyperthermia even though overnight temperatures fell to 51°F. How did a single crossed-out notation and a deputy’s assumption nearly erase the one object that could have changed everything?
In this episode, we follow the sequence of events and documents that surround Heather Dixon’s death and the delayed inquiry that followed, tracing volunteers’ schedules, supply logs, and a late-arriving investigator’s records to ask whether procedure or cover-up shaped the official verdict.
