Missing & Murdered: Finding Cleo
A True Crime podcast featuring Connie Walker
Where is Cleo? Taken by child welfare workers in the 1970’s and adopted in the U.S., the young Cree girl’s family believes she was raped and murdered while hitchhiking back home to Saskatchewan. CBC news investigative reporter Connie Walker joins the search to find out what really happened to Cleo.
Host
24 episodes
Hosted by Connie Walker who is a senior investigator who takes on cases of Canada’s Indigenous woman and girls who go missing and are murdered. The second Season is Finding Cleo and it's a absolute gut wrenching story of the 70's scoop.
One of the best podcast series I've heard. It's moving, informative, personal and educational.
Literally one of the best!
Finding Cleo raises so many important topics about the mistreatment of indigenous people in Canada, topics that I'd never known about before. Connie Walker is doing an incredible job at giving people a voice when they otherwise went unheard. The premise and the discoveries during this investigative podcast is incredible & a real eye opener. However, I found myself feeling very uncomfortable at some parts of the podcast, as if I'm invading on people's privacy. I know it's a reporter's job to dig into these mysteries, but I occasionally found they crossed a fine line between being inquisitive and invasive. Otherwise Finding Cleo was a strong season, and I'm glad it gave Cleo's siblings some form of closure.
