Unraveling the Christine Jessop Mystery on Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast!
A Story of Loss, Injustice, and Redemption
Part 1: The Disappearance of Christine Jessop
In the quiet, close-knit town of Queensville, Ontario, a tragedy unfolded on October 3, 1984, that would haunt Canada for decades. Nine-year-old Christine Jessop vanished without a trace, shattering her community and setting off a sprawling investigation that would expose the fragility of justice in ways no one could have predicted. What began as a desperate search for a missing child spiraled into a decades-long saga of loss, investigative missteps, and a wrongful conviction that gripped the nation.
Now, in a compelling two-part series titled Unraveling the Christine Jessop Mystery: A Story of Loss, Injustice, and Redemption, Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast, hosted by Jay Nicoll, dives deep into this haunting case. Part 1, The Disappearance of Christine Jessop, takes you back to the beginning—exploring Christine’s early life as a spirited, animal-loving girl with dreams of becoming a veterinarian, the eerie details of the day she vanished, and the massive search that united hundreds in hope and fear. The episode also delves into the initial police investigation, the tunnel vision that zeroed in on neighbor Guy Paul Morin, and the shaky evidence that led to his arrest.
This episode is more than a recounting of events—it’s a meticulous unraveling of a mystery that lingered for 36 years, reshaping Canadian legal history along the way.
