How Alberta Mounties solved four murders nearly 50 years later
About this episode
Nearly 50 years after two teen girls and two women were killed in the Calgary area, RCMP in Alberta say they’ve identified the man responsible.
Police say Gary Allen Srery entered Canada after a violent past in the U.S. and committed the killings. He died while serving a sentence for rape in Idaho.
Edmonton Journal courts and crime reporter Jonny Wakefield and Calgary Herald reporter Steven Wilhelm join the podcast to discuss the murders, how police used genetic genealogy to link Srery to the crimes, why police say there could be more victims, and what the break in the case means to families.
