Dr. Shirley Turner and Dr. Andrew Bagby

About this episode

In November 2001, beloved medical resident Andrew Bagby was found brutally murdered in a Pennsylvania park. The prime suspect, his former girlfriend Dr. Shirley Turner, immediately fled to St. John’s, Newfoundland, where she revealed she was pregnant with Andrew’s child. What followed was a complex, years-long international legal battle that pitted Andrew’s grieving parents against a foreign justice system in a remote, windswept province. The case ultimately centered on controversial bail decisions and the struggle to protect a child amidst a high-stakes extradition process, eventually sparking landmark legislative changes in Canadian law.<br /><br />Today's snack: <a href="https://www.kifflekitchen.com/Default.asp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Walnut kiffles</a> (Thanks Jody!)<br /><br /><a href="https://patreon.com/lovemarrykill" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Support us on Patreon</a><br /><br />Sources:<br /><ul><li>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5CPymqg4kI</li><li>Bagby, David.
