Ontario Cold Cases - The Podcast

  Toronto’s Forgotten Five: The Sex Trade Worker Stranglings Benita, Susan, Donna, Lori, Lyle – Was One Man Hunting Them All? Over fifteen years, five sex trade workers were found strangled in and around downtown Toronto. Benita ‘Bonnie’ Tarantino, Susan Siegel, Donna Oglive, Lori Pinkus, and Lyle Ford. Each taken from where they were last seen. Each left in a different corner of the city. For decades, their families and friends have lived with silence. In this episode, we walk through their final hours, the crime scenes, and the police files. We look at known predators of the era, from convicted killers to men who slipped through the system, and ask: was there at least one serial killer targeting these women?  These are Toronto’s forgotten five. Their stories deserve more than a footnote.  This is Ontario Cold Cases – Canada’s True Crime Podcast. Episode coming Sunday December 7th!

  Two families. Two unsolved murders. One terrifying pattern. In 1979, the Airst family was slaughtered inside their Toronto home—no robbery, no forced entry, and no suspects. Just a year earlier, the Fagans were killed in the same area under eerily similar circumstances. Police said it wasn’t random. So who was allowed into these homes? And why did no one hear a thing?

  The Unsolved Murder of Lisa Anstey A Murder Unsolved. A City in Shadows. A Truth Waiting to Be Uncovered. In the gritty heart of Toronto’s underbelly, 21-year-old Lisa Anstey fought to survive. A First Nations mother of two, known as “Jemma” or “Terri,” she was a fierce spirit trapped in a world of addiction and danger, working the streets since age 11. On May 12, 1997, her life was brutally cut short. Found strangled in a dark laneway near the notorious Street City, her body bore the scars of trauma—and a missing shoe that hinted at a killer’s chilling motives. Was it a trophy? A careless mistake? Or a message? Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast dives deep into Lisa’s unsolved murder, unraveling a web of secrets in a city plagued by violence against sex trade workers. With no witnesses in the chaotic homeless camp and a DNA profile—a white male with light eyes and blonde or red hair—leading nowhere, the case grows colder. Was it Peter Dale MacDonald, a known strang...

  The Triple Slaying of the Airst Family and the Fagans Two Families. Two Crimes. One Killer—or Two? In the fall of 1979, a daughter walked into her family home and found three loved ones murdered. No forced entry. No weapon. No suspects. Just eighteen months earlier, another couple was killed in the same neighbourhood, also without a sign of break-in. The police ruled the cases separate. But the similarities are too chilling to ignore. The Airsts and the Fagans—two families, two brutal crimes, and decades of unanswered questions. Were these killings personal? Political? Or the work of the same hand? Join us as we examine the evidence, theories, and the disturbing coincidences.  This is Ontario Cold Cases — Coming Tuesday December 2nd!

  The Murder of Lisa Anstey Killer in Uniform? The Cop Suspect Police had the killer's DNA profile and suspected serial killer Peter Dale MacDonald—but the DNA didn't match. The street workers had a different suspect: a cop, K.L., known to use his position to threaten and assault the girls he was supposed to protect. One victim told me: 'If you didn't fight him you'd be okay.' Was Lisa's "scrapper" attitude the reason she died? We investigate. Because every case deserves answers—and every victim deserves justice.
