本案讲述了多伦多连环杀手布鲁斯·麦克阿瑟的犯罪过程，以及警方在案件侦破中的失误和社会偏见对案件的影响。从2010年到2017年，多伦多村庄社区有多名男子失踪，其中大部分是边缘化的移民和LGBTQ社群成员。警方最初对这些失踪案的调查力度不足，导致案件迟迟未能侦破。直到2017年，一名白人男子安德鲁·金斯曼失踪后，案件才引起公众的广泛关注，警方才开始认真调查。调查过程中，警方发现了一些线索，最终将嫌疑人锁定为布鲁斯·麦克阿瑟。麦克阿瑟最终被捕，并在法庭上认罪，被判处终身监禁。本案反映了警方在处理此类案件中的不足，以及社会偏见对案件侦破的影响。警方对受害者的重视程度不足，以及对LGBTQ社群的偏见，都导致了案件的迟迟未能侦破。本案也提醒我们，要重视每一个受害者，不要因为受害者的身份而忽视他们的遭遇。

Shownotes Transcript

Between 2010 and 2017, a total of eight men disappeared from the neighbourhood of Church and Wellesley, the gay village of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The investigation into the disappearances, taken up by two successive police task forces, eventually led to Bruce McArthur, a 66-year-old self-employed Toronto landscaper, whom they arrested on January 18, 2018. On January 29, 2019, McArthur pleaded guilty to eight counts of first-degree murder in Ontario Superior Court and was subsequently sentenced to life imprisonment with no eligibility for parole for twenty-five years. McArthur is the most prolific known serial killer to have been active in Toronto, and the oldest known serial killer in Canada.
