In the spring of 2011, the community of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, was shaken by the suspicious death of 16-year-old Cody Dempster. He was found unresponsive in a downtown alley and later pronounced dead—his passing eventually ruled a homicide. The RCMP initially had suspects, but despite early leads, the case went cold. For over a decade, Cody’s family and friends remained silent. Now, for the first time, they’re speaking out. In this episode, we revisit Cody’s final moments, the early investigation, and the long fight for justice.--This podcast is recorded on the territories of the Coast Salish people.Music Composed by: Sayer Roberts - https://soundcloud.com/user-135673977 // shorturl.at/mFPZ0Subscribe to TNTC+ on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/TNTCJoin our Patreon: www.patreon.com/tntcpodMerch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/true-north-true-crime?ref_id=24376Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tntcpod/Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/tntcpodFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/truenorthtruecrime Hosted on Acast.
