Description
A spellbinding story of murder in a popular Halifax park, high courtroom drama, and hints of demonic possession and satanic worship.
In 1975, Jimmy Odo was charged with the murder of a fourteen-year-old boy, found strung up crucifixion-style in Halifax's Point Pleasant Park. Six years later, he was charged with bludgeoning his former girlfriend's five-year-old daughter to death.
At trial in 1981, Odo testified that he had lied to avoid conviction for the first murder and spoke of satanic worship with a Montreal group led by Marlene Dufoure, the "high priestess" of the cult.
This is the story of two brutal murders, a flawed parole system that granted early release to a convicted sex offender with known homicidal tendencies, the unethical conduct of two defence lawyers, and the sick mind of a killer.
