  • For seven years, Cindy James told police she was being stalked. She claimed she received chilling phone calls, threatening letters and dead cats thrown onto her front lawn.
    Cindy said she was stabbed, strangled and her home was set on fire - after phone lines had been cut. When the Vancouver nurse’s lifeless body was found two weeks after she went missing, and no suspects, a coroner’s inquest was called in hopes of solving the mystery of who killed Cindy James?

      The common opinion about this case is that she did all that to herself because she was mentally ill. Part 2 is missing but I learned from other videos that she autopsy showed she overdosed on morphine she had ingested orally. An expert concluded that she could have tied herself up,

      Exactly! She tied her hands behind her back after having injected herself with a drug and a dosage that would have rendered her unconscious in a few seconds. How on earth does that make any sense whatsoever?

    This woman went through hell and even so called friends did nothing to help her. She was on her own through this nightmare and what about her neighbours comment "we were shocked at the murder". What did you think the end result was going to be after the years of torment. I watch a lot of these crime documentaries and particularly through this period the police have been sorely lacking in providing protection.

      It was the 80's. We didn't even have stalking laws back then. Crimes against women were pushed under the rug. It was a different time. Luckily we've come a long way since then. Not just with DNA and other technologies, but in the way we view crimes against women. Like stalking, domestic violence and sexual violence. We take them more seriously now.

    • @johnkidd1226
      @johnkidd1226 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      This was thoroughly investigated including wiretaps, surveillance and undercover operations. Sadly, this woman had serious emotional problems that ended in suicide. Had her mental problems been addressed earlier the outcome might have been different.

    The first minute of this episode reminded me of nearly 40 years ago when I was a student nurse, all the strange things were happening in the nurses home where I lived. There were fires, a female security guard was bashed up in the stairwell… multiple bomb scares, and other very strange incidents.
    Someone became suspicious about the female security guard, and the police searched her garbage bin outside of her home, and found cut up newspapers, which they connected with notes that had been written to the hospital in the form of threats (using letters and words from the newspapers)
    She was a psychopath, and had inserted herself into all the events as a heroine.

    Having now watched both Pt 1&2 of Cindy's story (pt 2 aired on tv here last week), it's so VERY hard to believe (as suggested by a # of ppl in the story) that Cindy did this to herself! I know it's possible, but seems so unlikely that anyone would do this to themselves, altho I do know that a mind that is not functioning properly certainly can do things that make ZERO sense to us "clear thinking" persons. I wish the conclusion of the story left us with clear answers on exactly what occured, but, such was not the case. However these awful things occured to her in life, either by her own hand, or that of others, I am SO SORRY for what she experienced while alive here on earth and am glad she is resting peacefully now, free of all the hardship & misery she knew in this world.

      When her body was found she was hogtied and her hands were tied so tightly that one of her fingernails dug a hole into her other hand down to the bone. She was also found laying on her right side, but the blood pooling that occurs after death was all on her left side, indicating she was moved after death. She also had a legal dose of 3 different drugs in her system. The amount of morphine alone would have rendered her unconscious very quickly. Almost impossible she did this to herself.

    I was convinced by the book that poor Cindy was a bizarre troubled mentally ill person. Her husband certainly didn't commit the attacks himself. There was one detail that totally convinced me that Cindy did all these things herself. That detail is that Cindy was found alone in her car at a remote UBC parking lot at 3 AM by UBC campus police and she did not provide any explanation of what she was doing there. It's a bizarre case but the likeliest explanation is some strange mono-mania in the mind of Cindy James.
