A heinous act followed by solid police work. A trial filled with a litany of labels against the victim, leading and tickling conscious or unconscious bias and unjust stereotypes, holding a mirror up to the Canadian populace. Coast to coast outrage, would the Canadian justice system change? This is episode 40, the Yellowhead Inn, Cindy Gladue's story.

Cindy met Bradley the evening before. On this evening she, Bradley, and his co-worker Kevin stayed in the hotel lounge at The Yellowhead Inn, where Bradley was staying, until just after the last call. They continued to drink for the rest of the evening. Bradley was showing affection toward Cindy throughout the evening. The three of them left together and walked down the dimly lit hallway towards their respective rooms. This was at 12:42 am on June 22. Cindy was clearly intoxicated. She was swaying as she walked and would grab towards the wall and lean on Bradley several times as they walked down that hall. As they walked down the hall, Bradley asked Kevin if he "wanted a piece of this," referring to Cindy. Kevin declined and told him that he just wanted to eat his food and go to bed. Bradley then said, "Kev, what happens on the road stays on the road; it doesn't get back home."

But when the door closed behind Cindy, as she entered that room, it would prove to be a tragic evening, ending her life.
