Case 103: Beneath the Garden, The Bruce McArthur Murders
Description
In this episode we unravel the horrifying story of Bruce McArthur, a seemingly harmless landscaper who preyed on Toronto's LGBTQ+ community. From his unsuspecting double life to the slow investigation that uncovered his gruesome crimes, we discuss each layer of the case.
We touch on the lives of his victims, the mistakes and breakthroughs that shaped the investigation, and the broader social context surrounding Toronto's marginalized communities. This episode isn't just about the crimes; it's about the resilience of a community, the failures of a system, and the haunting question of how evil can sometimes hide in plain sight.
Tune in as Savannah pieces together how McArthur was able to evade capture for so long - and how he was finally brought to justice. Meanwhile, Elysia is completely baffled by how someone with such violent tendencies waited so long to act on them.
