GBNF: A True Crime Podcast

30. The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann

On the evening of May 3rd, 2007 a three year old girl went missing from her bed during the night while her family was on vacation at a resort in Praia da Luz in Portugal. This case has been described as the most heavily reported missing person case in modern history and to this day, 15 years later her whereabouts still remain unknown. German prosecutors believe that the young girl is certainly dead but her family, people that know the family and people who don’t know the family all continue to hold out hope that she is still alive. At the very least, we hope that all of the eyes and attention on this case now, so long after will ensure that regardless of the outcome, everyone involved will get a sense of closure in this case.

29. The Disappearance of Kimberly Amero

September 3rd, 1985 was a cool fall day in Saint John, New Brunswick. It was the day after Labour Day and everyone was transitioning into back to school, back to work and back to cooler temperatures. In Saint John it was a very popular time as The Atlantic National Exhibition was taking place. The ANE is an annual fair that features art, crafts, horticulture, livestock exhibits, family entertainment and a midway. The ANE was filled with laughter, happiness and good times. Unfortunately though on this date things would take a turn for one person in particular that was at the fair and today, 37 years later it is still a night that is remembered with sadness, confusion and heartbreak.

28. The McConnell Family Tragedy

On February 1st, 2010 a man received a call that his estranged wife had fallen from an overpass in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. His wife and him had separated approximately a year before that call and they were embroiled in incredibly difficult divorce and custody proceedings regarding their two young children, 2 year old Connor and 10 month old Jayden. Unfortunately the day was fixing to get a lot more tragic, a lot sadder and a lot more sinister.

27. The Murders of Roger Smith and Wendy Haveron

On February 2nd, 1999 at the address of 11553 Wellington Street, a rural street about 7km north of St.Thomas, Ontario emergency services were called as there was a fire in the farmhouse. When they arrived at the address they found a fire that was local to the living room of the house and they tragically found a man and a woman inside the building and they were both deceased. This however was not quite as it seemed and the police would unravel a set of circumstances that still today, over 23 years later, have not been explained, solved or closed.

25. The Lost Boys of Pickering Ontario

Most missing person cases centre around one person or perhaps at most, 2 or 3 people, but in the case that we are discussing today that is not the case. This case centres around six boys that all disappeared at the same time, in the same place. This case took place in 1995, it turned 27 years of age in March of 2022 and to date this case is still confusing, perplexing and crazy to anyone that knows about it. The boys are referred to as The Lost Boys because they seemingly disappeared into thin air and the case is no closer to being solved today than it was when it took place. Get ready to here an interesting story that doesn’t have a close to it even with so many people still following it and tracking in and trying to solve it. There has been next to nothing in the way of evidence and all that is left is that wonderment and for those involved, the heartbreak. Welcome to Gone, But Never Forgotten, The Lost Boys of Pickering, Ontario.

24. Luka Magnotta - Part 2

In the last episode we started to look at the descent into crime of Eric Clinton Kirk Newman, better known by Luka Rocco Magnotta. If you have not yet had a chance to listen to part 1, I highly suggest that you take the time to do so before diving into episode 2. In the last episode we looked a bit at Luka’s past and some of the things that may have led to the heinous crime that we are going to discuss at great length today. We talked about the crimes that led to Netflix Series Don’t Fuck With Cats and the manhunt that took place behind the scenes for a man who had made videos of killing cats. Many believed that this was precursor of worse things to come and unfortunately they would prove to be right. In this episode we will talk about the sad, grizzly murder of Jun Lin and the horrible ways in which his body was disrespected and desecrated after the fact.

23. Luka Magnotta - Part 1

If I say the name Eric Clinton Kirk Newman to you, odds are that unless you are really and truly a lover of True Crime, that name doesn’t ring a bell for you. However, when Eric Newman legally changed his name, he changed it to something that is much more known in the casual true crime world and also known by almost every person that was alive at the time that he committed his crimes, and especially his worst crime. In 2006 Eric changed his name to Luka Magnotta and on May 25th, 2012 a series of events would kick off that would give Luka Magnotta something that he had been chasing for his entire life, fame. But not the fame that any normal person looks for, no, Luka Magnotta decided to up the level of crime that he was committing, and he had already committed a lot and a lot of heinous crimes, this time he would commit murder and desecration to a body unlike almost anything ever seen before on Canadian soil. This case is a look into how horrible things on the internet can really be, if you weren’t already aware. Welcome to episode 23 of Gone, But Never Forgotten, the life and crimes of Luka Magnotta.
