The Mall Santa Who Buried 8 Men in Garden Planters | Bruce McArthur
He watered other people’s gardens. He posed as Santa at the mall. Neighbours said he was gentle.

This episode is the story of Bruce McArthur, the largest forensic search in Toronto police history, and the eight lives a city was too slow to look for.
