But their story opens up another possibility: could the key to Lisa Marie Young’s disappearance lie in the backwoods around Coombs? Then, geographic profiler Douglas MacGregor explains how an offender’s behaviour and familiarity with the territory might help narrow the search for Lisa more than two decades later.
Note: The statements and allegations about Christopher Adair discussed in this episode are unproven and have not been tested in court. Christopher Adair has not been charged in connection with the disappearance of Lisa Marie Young, and no finding of legal responsibility has been made against him in relation to her disappearance. Any theories, opinions or inferences expressed are attributed to their respective sources and should not be understood as findings of fact. Lisa Marie Young’s disappearance remains unresolved.

Along the way, she reflects on the places, people and stories that make the Island Crime journey so meaningful. She also shares behind-the-scenes updates on cases she's been working on this summer, including Lisa Marie Young, Michael Dunahee, and a few new leads that could lead somewhere. Hosted on Acast.

- A newly released prison file offers the clearest picture yet of Joseph Phillips—and confirms he was intensively questioned by the RCMP about the murders of his in-laws. Meanwhile, Laura and Shauna receive significant news in their battle to uncover the long-hidden police file, raising new questions about what remains secret nearly 70 years later.
Note: Joseph's prison file was too long and too dense to include in its entirety in the episode. I have posted it on the Island Crime Facebook page if you want to see it in full.
