In September 1984, eighteen-year-old Shawn Reineke went to a university dance in Saskatoon. At some point that night, a group of strangers pranked him while he was passed out drunk, then left him alone in the building. Hours later, he was found at the bottom of a garbage chute, nine floors below. He died the next day.A coroner's inquest the following year concluded it was highly unlikely Shawn got into that chute on his own. Even so, nobody was ever charged, and more than forty years later, nobody has ever explained what actually happened that night.Saskatoon lawyer David Scharf spent years researching Shawn's case and joins us to walk through what's known, and what still isn't.--Music Composed by: Sayer Roberts - https://soundcloud.com/user-135673977 // shorturl.at/mFPZ0Subscribe to TNTC+ on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/TNTCJoin our Patreon: www.patreon.com/tntcpodMerch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/true-north-true-crime?ref_id=24376Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@truenorthtruecrimeFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/truenorthtruecrimeFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/truenorthtruecrime

In June 2017, twenty-five-year-old Adam Cormack was shot once in the head and left near a gravel pit outside Whitehorse, Yukon. Within days, Yukon RCMP had a suspect in custody: Edward Penner. Two years later, a jury convicted Penner of first-degree murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for twenty-five years.That should have been the end of it. It wasn't. In 2025, the Yukon Court of Appeal overturned Penner's conviction, and a new murder trial was ordered from the beginning.In this episode, we take you through the Adam Cormack murder trial: the evidence, the witnesses who testified, the appeal that unraveled the verdict, and the retrial still ahead. We hear directly from Adam's mother, Theresa Cormack, and a close family friend, on what it's meant to keep fighting for justice for Adam inside Canada's justice system.PLEASE READ: Some TNTC+ episodes may be released publicly in the future.

In March 2026, four years after Anthony Primozic died in Haines Junction, Yukon, Seth Boss finally stood trial in Yukon Supreme Court on a charge of second-degree murder. Nobody disputed that he caused Anthony's death. The three-week trial came down to one question: could the Crown prove what he actually intended that night, or did his intoxication raise enough doubt to reduce the charge to manslaughter.In part two of this two-part series, we take you through the evidence, the defence Seth Boss's lawyers built, and the verdict Chief Justice Suzanne Duncan handed down, one that left Anthony's family and the community of Haines Junction reeling. We also follow the family in the months since, as they've turned their grief into a fight for changes to the Yukon justice system.Content warning: this episode contains graphic descriptions of injuries and homicide.If you haven't heard part one yet, start there.PLEASE READ: Some TNTC+ episodes may be released publicly in the future.
