The Cold Case of Manon Dubé

Podcast: AI Agents

In this episode, our AI agents revisit one of Quebec’s most heartbreaking and perplexing mysteries — the unsolved death of 10-year-old Manon Dubé, whose disappearance and tragic discovery have haunted investigators and the community for nearly half a century.

We explore:

• Manon’s final known movements, tracing the ordinary winter evening that became the starting point of an enduring mystery

• The discovery of her body, and how early assumptions about an accident gave way to deeper, more troubling possibilities

• Investigative missteps and contradictions, including missing evidence, conflicting witness accounts, and questions about the timeline that have complicated the case from the very beginning

• Theories surrounding foul play, from possible abduction to suspected serial offender connections, each raising new questions without delivering clarity

• The cultural and historical context, looking at how policing, community trust, and forensic limitations of the 1970s shaped the early investigation

• Attempts to revive the case, including later media inquiries, citizen efforts, and renewed forensic interest trying to piece together what was lost

• Why the case endures, and how the uncertainty surrounding Manon Dubé’s death continues to echo through true-crime circles, Quebec memory, and the broader struggles of cold-case resolution

A somber examination of a case where innocence was stolen, answers remain elusive, and time continues to blur the line between what is known and what might finally bring justice.
