    Jun 13 2025
    In 1989, the body of a woman was found hog tied off the side of a road in Richmond British Columbia. What followed was one of the longest coroners inquest in Canadian history. An inquest that would say the woman had died by an unknown event. Although she was found with her hands and feet tied with nylon behind her back, although she had told police that for 7 years she was being harassed by an unknown person, a jury of her peers wasn’t convinced that any crime had taken place… But how could that be? Well, today we are going to get into the very, very complicated death of Cindy James.
