Ontario Cold Cases - The Podcast: Specials 2 plus January 28 Trailer

S2-EP4 Wendy Tedford & Donna Stearne (Trailer)

Hello, I’m Jay Nicoll of Nicoll Investigations and I’m here to tell you about our next episode of Ontario Cold Cases - The Podcast, coming this Sunday, January 28th.

On Friday, April 27, 1973, at about 7:30 a.m., 18 year old Tony Iscaro, a student at Downsview Collegiate, was on his way to a basketball game at his school, and taking a short cut through a vacant lot in Toronto. As he walked north on the east side of the lot he discovered the fully clothed bodies of two females lying together in a pool of blood. Iscaro went to a nearby factory at 949 Wilson Avenue and called police, who attended at the scene a short time later and an investigation into the deaths was commenced.

The two victims were identified as 17 year old Donna Stearne and 17 year old Wendy Ann Tedford.

Autopsies revealed that both girls had been shot in the head. The shells recovered indicated a .38 calibre weapon had been used.

Ontario Cold Cases - The Podcast Upcoming Episode! Leah Sousa

On Sept. 1, 1990 —Leah Sousa, 13, died from severe head injuries after being raped and beaten in her Cumberland Beach home, north of Orillia. Sousa's diminutive 80-pound mother, Lora, 36, suffered skull fractures and was left for dead, but survived the attack. The Sousas were asleep in their Beachview Avenue home when when intruders broke through the back door. The youngster was bludgeoned to death, her battered body then dragged into the backyard. Investigators have described the bloody scene as "gruesome" and the attack as "extremely vicious." A nine-month-old baby boy, Michael, was found unharmed in his crib. Hundreds of statements were gathered, but no murder weapon was found, no fingerprints were left at the scene and no charges have been laid. The only physical evidence was a size 9 1/2 or 10 Nike shoe print on the kitchen floor. Authorities suspect the attacker is a male who lived in the area and knew the Sousas were unprotected inside the home.

Ontario Cold Cases - The Podcast: Upcoming Episode! Cindy Halliday

Cindy Halliday, 17, from Waverley - UNSOLVED MURDER-1992

• June 16, 1992 —A skull belonging to Cindy Halliday, 17, is found by a man walking his dog in a wooded area off Horseshoe Valley Road, north of Barrie. Dental records confirm it belongs to the Waverley teen, who was reported missing April 21, the day after she had hitch-hiked to Barrie. Insect experts said Halliday, who had been dismembered, may have lived up to a month after her disappearance. Clothing indicated she had been stabbed. There were also suggestions by investigators that her body may have been moved before it was discovered, but her remains had also been scattered by wild animals. Halliday — who often hitch-hiked to Midland, Elmvale and Barrie — was seen at Macmillan House, a halfway house on Barrie's Toronto Street, where she visited a friend. She was last seen alive that evening in Midhurst, hitch-hiking home to Waverley, and may have gotten into a light-coloured car, possibly a Chrysler LeBaron or Dodge Diplomat, although that has never been confirmed. Her remains were found a short distance away.
