Finding Shelley Desrochers: Part 3 - What Happened to Shelley?

Author: Stand Up Speak Up May 14, 2017 Duration: 59:53
Shelley Desrochers hasn’t been seen since January 2016. She’s one of three women who lived a “high-risk lifestyle” to go missing from London, Ontario, Canada in the last decade. In this series, we go beyond the police and news reports to take an in-depth look at Shelley’s life, ask questions surrounding the case and speak with guests and experts such as Mike Arntfield, host of “To Catch A Killer” and former London police officer. Part Three explores the difficult question of “What happened to Shelley Desrochers?” The list of possibilities is long, but you’ll be shocked to hear just what kind of a picture Mike Arntfield can paint using his experience and statistics. We also speak with Shelley’s friends & family who have thoughts of their own, and some eerie comments made by Shelley in the past that may serve as clues. Have you seen Shelley Desrochers?
