This week we are talking about the horrific murders of four Indigenous women in Winnipeg, Canada and contextualizing their story within the larger epidemic of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit people (MMIWG2S) throughout the United States and Canada. In 2022, the remains of Rebecca Contois were discovered, leading to an arrest and the discovery that Rebecca was not the only victim. While it soon became clear to investigators that the remains of these women were in the city's landfills, the decision was made to not search the landfills. Learn more about how Indigenous communities and the victim's families led a fight for justice on this week's episode.Be sure to Subscribe, Rate, & Review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Audible!Support the show by becoming a sponsor on our Patreon: www.Patreon.com/NYMysteryMachineNYMM Merch! https://nymysterymachine.myspreadshop.com/Have a strange and/or paranormal story?
