00:00:00.000 Welcome to The Crime Report with Ron Chinzer. My name is Ron Chinzer. I've spent over 20 years
00:00:09.840 in law enforcement in Canada, and what we're going to be talking about are some major stories
00:00:14.000 that happened throughout the country. Now, we need your support to be able to keep telling

00:00:29.900 the most and the stories that you probably won't read about in any other news source.
00:00:33.660 This is a story about failure, not just one man's horrifying crimes, but a system that let him do
00:00:38.720 it again. His name is Christopher Ward Dunlop, and he murdered two women 14 years apart. Both were
00:00:45.020 vulnerable, both were sex trade workers, and both were targeted because he thought no one would care
00:00:49.760 if they died. In 2009, Dunlop strangled 38-year-old Laura Furlin in Calgary's Deerfoot Athletic Park.
00:00:56.400 He dumped her body in Fish Creek Park like she was garbage. When he was caught,
00:01:00.320 he admitted to undercover officers that he was looking for someone who wouldn't be missed.
00:01:05.220 He pleaded guilty to manslaughter in 2011, and he was sentenced to 13 years in prison.
00:01:10.340 He served every day of that sentence, no parole, no early release, and in June 2022,
00:01:15.960 he walked out of prison a free man. Just eight months later, in February of 2023,
00:01:20.380 he struck again. This time, 58-year-old Judy Mares was his target. Dunlop used his wife's SUV to avoid
00:01:28.200 being recognized, showing clear signs of planning. He picked Mares up, took her to the same athletic
00:01:33.080 park where he killed his first victim, and attacked her with staggering violence, stabbing her
00:01:36.820 79 times, slashing her throat, and burning her body. He brought gasoline and a knife. He left his phone
00:01:43.460 at home. He planned to erase her existence, but she fought back. Investigators found Dunlop's blood
00:01:49.840 and snow nearby, and a defensive wound, they believe, from Mares' final struggle to survive.
00:01:55.760 The investigation from the Calgary Police Service was thorough. CCTV footage, cell phone tower data,
00:02:03.460 GPS tracking, and the discovery of Mares' belongings in his wife's SUVs all led to him. The forensic
00:02:09.440 evidence was clear. There was the intent. In July of 2025, Christopher Dunlop was convicted
00:02:15.320 of first-degree murder and indignity to human body. Judge Glenn Feasby called the killed, planned,
00:02:22.540 deliberate, and sexually violent. Now, Dunlop now faces a mandatory life sentence with no chance of
00:02:28.720 parole for 25 years, but a conviction isn't closure. It's a reminder. Dunlop should never have had the
00:02:35.780 chance to re-offend. After serving his full sentence, there was no long-term monitoring,
00:02:40.480 no public alert, no parole conditions, and he was released with no real safety net for the community.
00:02:46.920 And despite his first victim being targeted, vulnerable women, reports say, he was rated a
00:02:52.220 low to moderate risk. That's a massive system failure. He deliberately chose victims he believed
00:02:57.280 society wouldn't care about. He even researched online how to burn a body. That tells something
00:03:02.340 horrifying, not just about Dunlop, but about how some predators view marginalized women in this
00:03:07.860 country as disposable. That's just not a policing issue. It's a cultural one. People are rightfully
00:03:13.660 asking, why wasn't he tracked? Why weren't high-risk flags raised? Who decided he was safe? It's time
00:03:20.160 for a change. We need parole and sentencing reform for violent offenders, mandatory long-term
00:03:25.640 supervision, upgraded risk assessments, and better coordination between correctional services,
00:03:31.640 police, and parole officers. These are basic tools we're missing. We need to protect the women being
00:03:36.840 targeted. That means real trauma-informed support, safe housing, exit strategies, and investment in
00:03:43.680 programs that see these women not as statistics, but as people worthy of protection. And most importantly,
00:03:49.960 we need to kill the stigma. Every victim deserves justice, regardless of what they do for a living.
00:03:55.100 Dunlop's conviction is justice for Judy mirrors, but real justice means she should still be alive.
00:04:01.800 Justice for Judy should mean change, not just another headline. Now let's move to another story.
00:04:07.400 In December of 2023, a woman called Bell Canada to have her home internet set up. She expected a
00:04:13.320 technician to come in, do the job, and leave. What she got instead was something no one should ever have
00:04:18.460 to experience, especially not in their own home. The technician who showed up was 22-year-old
00:04:23.320 Summerbreed Singh. After asking to use the bathroom, he returned with his pants unzipped
00:04:27.800 and his genitals fully exposed, and they stayed exposed for almost 20 minutes. This wasn't an accident
00:04:33.920 or a moment of confusion. He stood there exposed while making inappropriate, sexually charged remarks
00:04:39.700 about the woman's body, her dating life, and even asked if she could help him get a job. This was
00:04:44.620 completely invasive, predatory, and deliberate. Imagine this happening to you or somebody you love
00:04:50.700 in your own home, in a private basement apartment where you expect safety and peace.
00:04:55.500 The psychological damage wasn't short-term. The victim described this as being emotionally
00:04:59.880 tethered to the incident, and she became withdrawn, developed severe anxiety, avoided public spaces,
00:05:05.500 and even moved out of her home in fear he might return. Her sense of safety, it's gone. Her ability
00:05:11.340 to focus and work shattered, and the ripple effects, they're still ongoing. Now Singh was ultimately
00:05:16.520 charged under the Criminal Code of Canada for committing an indecent act with the intent to
00:05:20.660 insult or offend. He was found guilty at the trial, and the Crown asked for jail time, while his defense
00:05:26.680 asked for leniency, arguing he was young, had no criminal record, and importantly, that a conviction
00:05:32.360 would negatively affect his immigration status. This is where the Canadian immigration system comes
00:05:37.220 into play. When someone is allowed to live and work in Canada, there's a social contract in place.
00:05:43.220 Respect the laws, respect the people, and uphold the values that make this country safe. When that
00:05:48.580 contract is broken, especially in a way that violates another person so deeply, it's fair and necessary to
00:05:53.540 ask whether that individual should remain in this country. Justice Gaudet agreed. She ruled that granting
00:05:59.700 Singh a discharge to protect his immigration status would be against the public interest. This wasn't a lapse
00:06:06.180 in judgment. It was calculated, prolonged violation of trust in the most private of spaces, and the judge
00:06:12.020 made it clear, protecting the public and reinforcing accountability outweighs the personal consequences
00:06:17.380 for Singh. This is a welcome decision. The final sentence, 90 days of house arrest, followed by a year of
00:06:22.340 probation. He's got some conditions, which means no contact with the victim, staying 100 meters away from
00:06:27.460 her at all times, to go to mandatory counseling, a weapons ban, and a DNA order. There's no sentence that can undo what this
00:06:34.580 woman experienced, but what matters is that the justice system recognized it for what it was, a serious
00:06:40.100 deliberate act that violated her home, her peace, and her dignity. That matters, and that needs to be
00:06:45.860 remembered. Now, this one went viral and made headlines. A 58-year-old man with five prior impaired
00:06:51.060 driving convictions and three lifetime vans walked out of court on bail. Again, his name is Goshal Kasidam.
00:06:58.020 And on July 5th, 2025, he got behind the wheel of a vehicle. He had no legal right to drive while drunk,
00:07:04.740 and he caused a brutal four-vehicle crash in Brampton. Three people were injured. One of them
00:07:09.780 was a 21-year-old man who's now clinging to life, suffering from catastrophic life-altering injuries.
00:07:15.860 Emergency crews responded just after 4 p.m. to the intersection of Highway 50 and Coleraine Drive in
00:07:21.220 Brampton. Now, this scene was chaotic, twisted metal, wrecked cars, innocent people hurt,
00:07:25.700 because one man ignored every restriction, every warning, and every court order.
00:07:30.820 Kasidam, who lives in Mississauga, was arrested at the scene. He's been charged with impaired driving
00:07:35.860 causing bodily harm, driving with excess blood alcohol, and three counts of prohibited driving.
00:07:40.900 He wasn't just banned from driving once. He was banned for life three separate times,
00:07:46.020 and none of it mattered. Despite his record, despite the fact that he had repeatedly shown contempt
00:07:50.500 for the law and public safety, the court released him on bail again.
00:07:54.660 His only condition, he's not allowed to drive. The same condition, he's violated again and again.
00:08:00.420 There's no ankle monitor, no interlock device, no meaningful enforcement, just paperwork and a
00:08:05.380 promise from a man who's already broken them all. Peel Police didn't hold back. Deputy Chief Mark Andrews
00:08:11.060 called for real consequences, saying repeat offenders must face consequences sufficient to stop them
00:08:16.740 from continuing to offend. And he's right, because right now the system isn't stopping them. It's enabling them.
00:08:22.820 This is bigger than one man. This is about a legal system that has allowed repeat impaired drivers
00:08:28.260 to keep gambling with innocent lives. We've got so-called lifetime bans that aren't enforced,
00:08:34.340 bail conditions that are ignored, and sentencing that treats impaired driving as if it's just a lapse in judgment,
00:08:40.020 not a criminal pattern with deadly consequences. What does this say about our priorities when someone can be banned
00:08:46.340 from driving for life multiple times and still get behind the wheel, get drunk, nearly kill someone, and walk free?
00:08:52.580 The young man injured in this crash may never recover. Two others are still in hospital. These are real people,
00:08:58.500 real consequences, and the damage is permanent. But the system that allowed this to happen, it hasn't changed.
00:09:04.580 If we want that to stop, we need action. Mandatory jail for repeat DUI offenders, vehicle forfeiture,
00:09:11.060 GPS monitoring, real enforcement of driving bans, no bail without real risk assessments, and updated sentencing laws
00:09:18.260 that reflect the seriousness of impaired driving and the ongoing danger repeat offenders pose. Because
00:09:24.260 here's the bottom line. A man banned three times for driving for life just got bail after ruining
00:09:30.020 another person's future. What's the point of laws if we don't enforce them? What does bail even mean
00:09:35.300 when somebody keeps breaking the rules? And who's protecting the public from the next cussidum?
00:09:39.860 Until this country starts treating impaired driving like the violent crime it is, we'll keep hearing
00:09:44.420 stories like this, and the next victim could be somebody you love. Now, this next story is
00:09:49.780 completely heartbreaking, and I'm going to give you a trigger warning. It has to do with a child being
00:09:54.420 sexually assaulted. In the quiet rural town of Quadeville, Ontario, which is about 170 kilometers
00:10:00.420 west of Ottawa, an eight-year-old girl disappeared from her home one evening in late June. The first thought
00:10:05.460 was that she'd been attacked by a wild animal. In a community surrounded by thick woods and farmland,
00:10:10.580 the theory felt plausible. But what police uncovered in the hours and days that followed was far more
00:10:16.500 horrifying and deeply human. Just after midnight around 1230 a.m. on June 24th, the little girl was
00:10:23.460 found badly wounded on Quadeville Road. She'd suffered multiple traumatic injuries, life-threatening ones,
00:10:30.020 and was rushed to hospital in Ottawa. Somehow she survived, and to this day she remains in serious
00:10:36.020 but stable condition. At first, medical professionals believed her wounds were consistent with an animal
00:10:41.620 mauling. Pathologists backed it up, residents were told to keep their kids indoors, and traps were set.
00:10:48.020 But even as that theory gained traction, the Ontario Provincial Police kept their investigation
00:10:52.660 open-ended. They didn't lock in too early, and thank God they didn't. DNA testing revealed no involvement
00:10:59.940 of animals. No bear, no wolf, no stray dog. What the evidence did show was that this was an attack by a
00:11:05.380 human being. And on July 8th, police arrested a 17-year-old male and charged him with attempted
00:11:10.500 murder and sexual assault with a weapon on a person under the age of 16. This was an eight-year-old girl.
00:11:16.020 The charges confirmed what many feared but couldn't say out loud. This wasn't an accident. It wasn't
00:11:20.820 wildlife. It was somebody in the community, a young offender whose identity is shielded under Canada's
00:11:25.540 youth criminal justice laws. And for Quadeville, a tight-knit rural place where everyone knows each other,
00:11:31.460 the emotional shock has been overwhelming. It's not just fear. It's grief. It's disbelief. How could
00:11:37.780 this happen here? How could anyone do this to a child? And there's no miracle in all of it. Police
00:11:43.460 have openly said the girl's survival is nothing short of remarkable, and the extent of her injuries and
00:11:48.020 the isolation of where she was found should have led to a very different outcome. But she's alive and
00:11:53.780 that matters. The investigation was carefully deliberate. OPP avoided tunnel vision, and they
00:11:58.900 consulted multiple forensic efforts. Experts gathered critical evidence and never stopped digging. That
00:12:04.980 work is being praised now, but it also highlights how fragile early assumptions can be. Had they locked
00:12:10.900 into the animal theory and not kept pushing, a child predator could still be free. There are also
00:12:17.460 questions that still haven't been answered. What weapon was used? Why did it take so long to rule out an
00:12:22.980 animal and what's being done to make sure this can happen again here or anywhere else? This case is
00:12:29.540 shining a light on the gaps in the system. In small rural communities like Quadeville, there's limited
00:12:34.900 surveillance, long response times, and not enough boots on the ground. That leaves children in those
00:12:39.780 communities more vulnerable, whether we want to admit it or not. There's also the delicate balance between
00:12:46.260 privacy and safety. The youth offender protections in Canada are in place for a reason, but when an
00:12:52.420 entire town is shaken to its core, people want answers. They want to know what kind of danger they
00:12:57.780 were in and might still be in. Right now, there's very little clarity about the weapon used, the exact
00:13:03.620 nature of the threat, or how the attack unfolded. And that leaves an information gap, one that creates
00:13:09.460 anxiety, distrust, and even fear. So where do we go from here? We need better forensic first protocols,
00:13:16.580 to make sure science, not assumption, leads investigations. We need rural safety strategies,
00:13:21.620 surveillance patrols, better emergency access. We need police forces equipped to handle these rare
00:13:27.620 but devastating crimes in remote areas. And we need a communication policy that doesn't just protect
00:13:32.580 the rights of the accused, but also provides enough clarity to keep communities informed and secure.
00:13:38.740 Finally, we need to support victims and the towns that they live in. That means mental health care,
00:13:44.260 trauma informed support, and long-term community healing. You don't just move on from something
00:13:49.620 like this, you survive it, and then you rebuild. In Quaidville, that process is just beginning. An
00:13:55.780 eight-year-old girl survived something unthinkable. And while that's a miracle, it doesn't erase what
00:14:01.220 happened. This case reminds us all that evil doesn't just live in big cities. It can find its way into the
00:14:07.140 smallest, safest places. The question is, what will we do with the truth? If we want to prevent this
00:14:12.740 kind of war from repeating, it starts with acknowledging the failures, closing the gaps,
00:14:16.980 and protecting those who can't protect themselves. We owe that, not just to the survivor, but to every
00:14:22.660 child in every quiet town across this country. Late last night, former U.S. President Donald Trump
00:14:28.340 released a direct and pointed letter to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, threatening a 35%
00:14:33.860 tariff on all Canadian imports, unless Canada takes immediate and aggressive action to confront
00:14:38.660 the fentanyl crisis happening in our own country. Trump's message was blunt. Either Canada steps up
00:14:44.260 and works with the U.S. to dismantle the sources of fentanyl within its borders,
00:14:48.260 or it will pay a steep economic price. He left the door open, however, saying if Canada cooperates,
00:14:54.340 he's willing to reset the relationship and work together as a likable trade partner.
00:14:58.580 Canada's response so far has been to downplay the issue, claiming that we're not a source or a
00:15:03.940 country that hosts fentanyl isn't insisting that the real problem lies elsewhere. But that narrative
00:15:09.700 doesn't hold up against the evidence. According to the RCMP, Canada is currently home to over 4,000
00:15:15.460 organized crime groups. Many of these networks are tied directly to the drug trade, and several
00:15:20.660 are suspected of operating clandestine fentanyl labs within Canada's border. Intelligence sources,
00:15:26.180 former law enforcement officials, and investigative journalists have long warned that domestic production,
00:15:32.020 processing, and distribution of synthetic opioids are quietly fueling a crisis that extends
00:15:37.700 far beyond our borders. The Canadian government's position, there's no significant role being played
00:15:43.060 by us domestically, and it's increasingly at odds with the reality that we're all facing.
00:15:48.020 Law enforcement agencies have executed large-scale drug busts involving massive quantities of fentanyl
00:15:53.700 and methamphetamine at Canadian ports like Vancouver's Delta port. These seizures point to
00:15:59.780 well-established smuggling and distribution routes, many of which are operated by transnational gangs
00:16:05.380 like the Hells Angels, East Asian crime syndicates, and the cartels with direct links to Mexico and China.
00:16:11.700 Past intelligence operations like Project Sidewinder exposed some of these alliances decades ago,
00:16:18.020 yet little has been done since to dismantle or disrupt these networks at scale. Trump's letter
00:16:23.060 taps into that frustration. He's not just highlighting the cross-border drug issue, he's framing Canada's
00:16:28.500 crime problem as a national security threat. And he's not wrong. With fentanyl deaths surging across
00:16:34.180 North America, there's no room left for bureaucratic denial or political spin. If Canada continues to
00:16:40.180 ignore the reality of organized crime within our borders, it risks further alienating our closest
00:16:45.700 ally and trading partner. This situation demands more than statement, it means enforcement. That
00:16:51.380 means targeting fentanyl labs operating in Canadian jurisdictions, dismantling the organized crime
00:16:56.260 groups behind them, and working with our U.S. counterparts on intelligence sharing and joint
00:17:00.820 force operations. Trade security and public trust are now on the line. Trump's warning is clear. Canada can
00:17:07.780 either acknowledge the scale of its organized crime network and act, or we're going to face the
00:17:12.260 consequences. The choice is now in Canada's hands. Thank you for watching The Crime Report with Ron
