S1 E1: The Murder of Jennie Eldon Conroy

Jennie Eldon Conroy was a 24-year-old shipyard war worker who was beaten to death in 1944, her body dumped at the West Vancouver cemetery. Seventy-five years after her murder, forensic samples including her hair and gravel from the crime scene ended up on my desk. What happened to her baby?

This podcast is based on a story from my book Cold Case Vancouver: the city's most baffling unsolved murders
