In August 2010, 20-year-old Amber Tuccaro disappeared near Edmonton, Canada. Her remains were later found by horseback riders in a field on a farm in a very rural area of Leduc County. The RCMP released audio of a phone call that recorded Amber talking with an unknown male, apparently as a passenger in this man's car. But, the authorities have only released about one minute of what is known to be about a 17-minute recording. Authorities eventually came out and said they believe Amber was murdered and many people have speculated that the determination is based on something found on that portion of unreleased audio. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the mysterious disappearance and murder of Amber Tuccaro. The authorities have been heavily criticized over the investigation into Amber's disappearance and murder. Amber was an Indigenous woman and Canada has experienced a large number of disappearances and murders of Indigenous women in their history. And, many charges have been levied against the police that they have not always taken the cases of Indigenous women as seriously as they should.
