S1 E5: The Hastings-Sunrise Murder of Evelyn Roche
In 1958, Evelyn Roche was murdered on the way home from the bus just two blocks from her Vancouver home. It’s a case that really haunted me when I first read about it. The newspaper stories just said was that she was a 39-year-old widow who had recently remarried and had a boy and a girl. I wanted to know what happened to her children, how their lives had turned out.
This podcast is based on a story from my book Cold Case Vancouver: the city's most baffling unsolved murders
