In their own words

This podcast was started in January of 2017, about the unsolved murder of my sister, Theresa Allore, who died on November 3, 1978. The project has grown to include unsolved murders of women in Quebec in the 1970s. Now the podcast is simply about justice issues and criminal investigative failures. www.theresaallore.com @justusguy

Why you'd press play

An excluded confession leaves you with John Allure's harder question: what can the record actually prove?

Press play if you want

  • to follow Quebec cold-case theories while keeping a tantalizing connection separate from evidence
  • to hear a suspect theory tested against where and how the crimes happened

Luc Gregoire follow-up / WKT #33Mar 28, 2023

A cautious Montreal theory expands the case without pretending the evidence has settled it.

Tales from Hollyweird - WKT #32Mar 23, 2023

A raw Los Angeles job-hunt story opens a revealing detour within Teresa's case.

The episode's "True Hollywood Stories" segment tracks John Allure's first stretch in Los Angeles, where a practical search for work keeps sliding into the odd margins of the entertainment business.

Victimology - A Canadian Perspective WKT #31Mar 21, 2023

Joanne Wemmers examines how victims' rights can be promised in law without clearly becoming enforceable in practice.
