CBC radio 'Missing & Murdered' Who killed Roberta Williams?

MISSING & MURDERED from CBC RADIO. Roberta Williams was a Native/Indigenous young woman who went missing back in 1989. Her dead body was found weeks later off the "Highway of Tears" in Canada. She was nude from the waist down and sexually assaulted. 

The 8-Part Podcast covers a lot of ground concerning Roberta's life up until her disappearance. Connie Walker reports and discovers many truths after interviewing those who are still alive. It has been more than 27 years since Roberta's murder and no one has been arrested. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police have a suspect and the man won't speak and there is no real evidence connecting him to Roberta's murder. He was seen leaving a bar with Roberta when she disappeared. 

What's interesting here is the memories of those people who saw Roberta leave that bar. It varies, but the main suspect is always mentioned. Unfortunately, Roberta isn't the only Indigenous woman who had gone missing or was murdered along Highway #16. That's what makes this podcast intriguing and sad.
