Northern Crimes

June 11th, 1986. Pelican, Alaska. A 17-year-old cannery worker named Wade Tackett takes a borrowed skiff out alone for an afternoon cruise near Junction Island and never comes back. Searchers find the boat first - throttle open, engine in gear, fuel nearly full, two unused life jackets still aboard, along with a rifle no one ever tested for gunfire. The Coast Guard calls it a drowning. Wade's parents struggle with that conclusion.
Over the next decade, strangers across two countries — a hairdresser, a bartender, a hotel clerk - will swear they served, styled, or spoke with him, down to a pineapple shirt no flier ever mentioned. Nobody agrees on what happened to Wade Tackett. They just keep seeing him.

Oregon’s true crime history is shaped as much by its geography as by the predators who exploit it. West of the Cascades, crimes disappear into misty rainforest. East of the crest, bones bleach in the cracked high desert. This is a landscape that doesn’t forgive.
Today, we’re covering four stories that show how dangerous it can be - from hikers who vanish to families murdered in cold blood - and how they’ll change the way you see the Pacific Northwest.

A state official with a past intelligence career walks into Olympic National Park for an afternoon hike and disappears.
No trace of him is ever found.
Was it a tragic accident? Or a run in with one of North America's most notorious serial killers?

Two hours. Six provinces of unresolved history - from the fog-locked inlets of British Columbia to the flat, wind-scoured highways of Alberta. A hiker vanishes from a marked trail. A farmhouse sits untouched for decades. A body is found; a name is never confirmed. Some of these cases closed with a conviction. Most did not. This compilation moves through Canada's coldest files - murders, disappearances, mysteries investigators still quietly discuss - without pretending any of them are settled.

December 14, 1981. A 14-year-old girl in St. John's raises her hand for a bus, then sticks out her thumb instead. A sedan pulls over, the driver reaches across to open the door from the inside, and she's gone. Four days later she's found arranged in the woods, her schoolbooks tucked under her arm. She is one of seven. A mother walks into a snowstorm to reach her infant son and never arrives. A hunter parks his truck, locks his rifles inside, and disappears unarmed into the bush. A father calls his ex-wife to say he's wired the house to explode, then vanishes with their three sons. Newfoundland keeps its files open. It does not keep its answers.
