[@BlindFreddy59]

Imagine having somebody love you like John loved his sister. What an amazing man. RIP 💔

[@medusaink3]

That was such a sad ending. I hope he finds the answers he's spent his life looking for and that he finds peace...

[@marleyyy8936]

May John rest in peace, reunited with his sister. So sad to hear of his recent tragic passing. 😢

[@fernfreeman1729]

I read his book 📖. He really devoted his life to solving his sister's murderer. How sad to hear he died.

[@Sappy10]

Yeah i just found out in a article.. sooo freaking sad... he helped so many persons.. he wanted to solve his sister murder and found her killer(s) no matter the cost... its one of sadest case i ever know... I hope that other people will continue his fight to elucidate Theresa's murder.. He didn't do it all for nothing... As well as the podcast and surely other ways to help that I don't know about.. It absolutely must continue ... It's his legacy.. never to forget it because at first it was for his sister but it's also for other people like him who was/is let down by authorities who did nothing ... it's so sad. .. but we must continue, never give up to finally know the truth about Theresa's case and continue to help other... I didn't know him but I'm sure that's what he would want...

[@lisamarierosso2713]

Unbelievable story and the ending completely floored me. Rest in Peace John with your beautiful sister Theresa 🙏🙏🕊️🕊️

[@sandrazed6089]

I'm pretty sure I've seen this story previously on either W5 or Fifth Estate; it just rings a bell. I did go on the website. How sad that he just passed. Below is what the site wrote. He got hit by a car while on his bike: " It is with great sadness that we share the news that John passed away on Thursday, March 30, 2023 after being struck by a car on his morning bike ride. John devoted his life to the pursuit of solving the murder of his sister Theresa and to helping the families of missing and murdered women find out what happened to their loved ones and seek justice. John was a devoted father to his three daughters and active in his community as Budget Director of the City of Durham. We, the families and friends of the missing and murdered, owe him a great debt of gratitude for all his dedication, courage and valuable research. His passing leaves an unfillable void as his work will not be able to continue without him. Thank you, John, for all that you’ve done. Our hearts go with you on this final voyage. At last you will be reunited with your sister. Our heartfelt condolences go out to John’s beloved daughters, his family, and his friends. He will be sorely missed by all."

[@eh-i1841]

That is just terrible news.How horribly unfair life is,for some.Sending heartfelt condolences,from me and my family,here in England,and wishing them the love and support they need.

[@katrinacarter2019]

That's so bloody sad rip he was so devoted to finding his sisters killer and many others 😢Rip condolences to his family and friends 😢

[@elizabethtobin6894]

So sorry to read this. RIP John 💔

[@maryellenmonk3481]

What an awesome brother! Should have been a detective. So sorry for the loss of your sister. She would have been proud of you.

[@katrinacarter2019]

He died as well😢

[@LidiaMoura-jf2hl]

RIP Theresa and John, you were such a good man who has dedication to his sister to find the killer, and just like the senator stated "John now you know the truth".

[@curtissmith5469]

So nice to know how John's crusade to find the truth about his sister brought about change that will prevent other families in similar situations from going through decades without answers. I hope your reunion with your sister brought you peace.

[@jennifersierzant2152]

Cops were involved: the end! Quebec is special

[@eskeeee5197]

So sad to hear he passed rest in peace

[@gaiagreen2690]

ODd on a joint, a lesbian, a runaway, pregnant, in a monastery... 🙄 While having the coroner's report about strangulation all the time! And twenty+ years later, the police still insult the families and the public by saying it was not a coverup. DISGUSTING.

[@emijacqueline]

Deepest condolence to his family, daughters, friends. What an inspiring man. He is with his sister now in heaven. My two angels are up there as well.

[@r.r.6863]

In my Canadian History courses at uni, Quebec history and eventually the history of upper and lower Canada was laid out very clearly for us by multiple professors. Over 500 years ago when the powers that be wanted the population of Canada to grow (the powers being the Seigneurial System under the King of France, the Catholic Church and eventually the King of England). Everyone encouraged the migration of women from France & England & many European countries and once in Canada, these women were protected. They wanted women to come to Canada, lived their lives here, get married, have several children, etc. If a man raped a woman at this time he was put to death. Eventually through the centuries that became life in prison, to many years, decades, in prison. Until we arrive at the 20th century when women were no longer valued or protected, they were victim blamed (clothing, being out at night, drinking). Lastly in the 21st century, the rape and murder of women is not even being investigated. This wonderful man❤️ (Theresa’s brother) will be part of history in his vocal role that got a cold case unit established as part of police services. Perhaps he and his sister are looking down and smiling at the reversal in attitude and policy across this land, that now will contribute to SOLVING these horrific cases. RIP & Condolences to all the families. 💔

[@patriciaoreilly8907]

Very moving video.

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great coverage

[@UK-sm4co]

Geez, was not expecting the end at all😢. RIP John and Theresa

[@nicoleschulthess9287]

What a sad ending. John was hit by a car. Was it realy an acident?

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

I’m in Australia and I have watched a lot of true crime over the years and one thing that I have noticed is that the Canadian stories seem to all have a similar aspect, that Canadian law enforcement always seem to do a pitiful job. I’ve seen stories from the past like this one, right up to recent stories and they all have families saying the same things regarding their dealings with law enforcement.

[@arolf2524]

I'm in Australia too and have really just started watching these youtube videos. They are horrific and I really think I'm done. However, as I was a young woman in the 1970s, and knowing how badly women were (and are still) treated, I am shocked and saddened by the response of the police to Theresa's murder, I am not surprised. Some of the Canadian sentences are unbelievably lenient as are those in Australia.

[@judyskinner254]

Imagine having a brother like John. R.I.P.

[@cN-xv7ju]

So very sad I hope John and Teresa are up there catching up on all they missed out on

[@Jean-gf3fi]

Thank you! a vey well presented documentary!!

[@pinkysimmsBMMM]

RIP John. I pray you are reunited with your sister. I know as someone who also had a sibling killed, every step we take is a step closer to being reunited.

[@karinhaland-kinnapel9219]

Rest in Peace🕊, John❤🌹❤🕊, and Rest in Peace🕊, Theresa❤🌹❤🕊

[@jackiemartial91]

What a sad outcome! 😥

[@pauladenisecoutinho2203]

This was so touching part way through I added his podcast n then the end was just sad very sad ..I hope he does know the truth 🙏

[@gnarlycarley5550]

Rip to Theresa & John, very sad

[@simonmears1726]

This guy never gives up on finding justice for his sister and other victims legend

[@nanamthembu2028]

The Quebec police were so incompetent in the seventies till for so long!!! Sad. Theresa's brother has done tremendously to get justice for so many Jamie's, he deserves a medal and recognition.

[@dorawell4752]

People can be pure evil!

[@TheKayc136]

Rest in peace John and thank you for all you have done 😢

[@lovsompie]

i am guessing the cops of today are better then back then. but most likely not.

[@thimashiangel3026]

Rest in peace dearest John.💕❤ you are everyone’s hero. You are in God’d home.🙏🙏🙏

[@Anonymousmuslimah104]

Is it only me or does anyone else feel like he was being silenced?

[@angeliquemarais1428]

The police conduct was shameful and pathetic 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@sarahmyob6862]

I feel like someone did something to Josh with intent! He was getting close to figuring out what happened. And law enforcement often draws up some really suspicious conclusions, time and time again! They are the ones that need to be looked at!

[@liftedgifted6010]

My thoughts too!!!

[@dawnadevine1618]

Josh?

[@Dexter037S4]

Quebec police have a culture of this stuff, been like that for decades, similar to how the LASD are the biggest gang in LA County.

[@zahrareaume]

I wonder the same thing

[@slimshady90886]

Me too

[@brownsuga16117]

RIP John, you're with your sister now

[@paulinev1757]

Omg this was so sad in so many ways 😢.

[@ginapeselj3132]

Was his death an accident or was he targeted

[@dorawell4752]

What’s wrong with the police force?

[@LifeofWalk]

It feels like such a different world today from the unknowns of communication with someone and hitchhiking back then. Today everyone connected on their cell phones, cameras everywhere, gps tracking on everything, uber rides for travel etc. Lots of things answered if someone goes missing today

[@annalisavajda252]

Not really there are still lots of missing and murdered women and cops that are "not smart or devoted" they ignore evidence sometimes even when they have it. They have little empathy for victims and victim's families excuses about jurisdiction etc. anything to avoid doing their jobs.

[@shari9721]

More than 600,000 persons go missing in the United States every year. Anywhere between 89 percent to 92 percent of those missing people are recovered every year, either alive or deceased. Each year, police record over 100,000 missing persons in Canada. In the overwhelming majority of cases, missing persons are located within a very short period of time , either alive or deceased.

[@TheCaper69er]

Nothing good to say about just how awful the police are. So many beautiful souls lost because of this. 😢

[@fernfreeman1729]

I just wonder if John had made arrangements to be buried next to Theresa in Trenton Ontario, where they first originated.

[@heather-cz8yk]

John Allore-What a great man!! Thank you and other family members for all that you did to investigate so many crimes against women,, particularly with the police being such a disgrace. As for the men who were with the low life sociopath who told them to stop the car so he could go attack and murder poor Theresa..... Well, you were the pathetic antithesis to John Allore.

[@MottTheHoople2-nv3cf]

Good shot of David Bowie and Peter Frampton.... probably taken during David's "Glass Spider" tour, during which Frampton played guitar.

[@digi3355]

Theresa in her short life did have a wonderful brother and wonderful friends..rip theresa and john

[@jerrycrowe8448]

Wow memories😢 unfortunately another voice is gone

[@Kopihue]

The families should sue that police department.

[@arolf2524]

The statement from the police at the end was truly disgusting. The knew almost immediately that Theresa had been strangled, that she had no drugs or alcohol in her system, yet continued with the lies of a drug overdose or drunken accident. Sadly, probably most of the police working at the time are probably dead, never to have been held accountable for their criminal neglect and disregard of evidence.

[@sockknitter4884]

I am from Montréal, interesting documentary. But, my gosh. A lot of mistakes in the subtitles.

[@anneramsay4484]

Vale John...what a true brother, From Australia.

[@dyls2702]

Holy shit was that town called Magog, America is filled with so much interesting esoteric names.

[@rhondashelly5680]

New investigating techniques mean nothing when corruption within the department remains sadly 😢

[@Viewer-qm3qx]

Ewew that "justice of Quebec" creeper van gives me bad bad bad vibes. Yuk

[@Littlemouse884]

Gosh for a 'safe' country there sure is alot of crime in Canada and in particular crime against women

[@crocheting-around-the-planet]

RIP john 💔

[@kflowersmith]

Gosh this case reminds me SO much of one from where I live, in Kingston. The older sister of my sister's good friend went missing in the early 1970s on the day that she left a high school football game in the east end to hitchike to her home in the west end. Like Theresa, Robin's body was not found until the following spring near an old quarry in the west end, after the snow melted. She was found with her jeans removed and around her neck, making it likely that she was strangled with her own jeans. I don't believe anyone was ever arrested for Robin's murder.

[@4kemz]

RIP John

[@noreenmadden3028]

What a very sad ending for this family of John's in more ways than one.Noreen Australia 🦘

[@taradeleeuw2344]

Because you doubt yourself ,you figure the police look after it

[@sandycassidy8637]

Bravo John, bravo 👏👏👏

[@FLOSSYTREADWELL]

Disgraceful that the clear signs of murder noted by the coroner were kept from the family. How can this happen, he should have sued because unless they're taken to task nothing will change.

[@CourtneyTunbridge79]

Omg i can't believe John was also killed, how heartbreaking May John and Theresa rest in peace 🕊❤️🕊❤️

[@cindyrussell1581]

My thoughts and prayers are with and yr family, the Cops are all a joke, Frist you don't OD from smoking pot. Nothing but laziness on the cops part. So sorry for yr loss.🇨🇦🙏🕊️🙏🕊️

[@lachanceannie3215]

Toutes mes condoléances à la famille

[@c.o3301]

The lazy, incompetent detective work makes me cringe

[@thimashiangel3026]

Such lousy police eating free salary!

[@carmelellis817]

A brother we ALL wish we had to stand in our corner. This Gladiator fought for justice not just for his sister but for others. I was genuinely crushed at the end of this video to know he was killed by a car whilst enjoying a bike ride in the countryside that he enjoyed to salve his angst, a hobby he took up to help him deal with his sister's murder. Times like this I question God when a good, kind fighter in life can be taken this way. I hope this gentleman finds peace and is once again in his sister's arms knowing all the answers....RIP sweet man & your sister Theresa xxx

[@taradeleeuw2344]

Life sentence of hell

[@annmowatt7547]

What was this police department up to? I immediately wonder if they were complicit and not just utterly incompetent and indifferent. I also blame the college as their accommodation situation was totally inadequate/ ridiculous and dangerous. This is a horrendous story and I feel so sorry for John and all the family. A tragic end to a tragic story.

[@Su-mx7ix]

They are at the very least complicit for destroying evidence despite knowing this was a murder case. This sounds exactly like a cover up. Cops or sons definitely involved.

[@fireinastorm]

He was probably murdered

[@Viewer-qm3qx]

Who else would get away with all these murders of Canadians? From coast to coast these things continue to happen AND go UNSOLVED!! Who might be overlooked? Everyone is a suspect except for police and investigators..

[@stevemartin6144]

You've got to be kidding! Someone is going to travel all the way to North Carolina, risk being caught and charged to murder this guy? Wake up!!!!

[@annatserepas3623]

Bike accident?... How " convenient".........

[@patrickcomer4748]

You’d make a great detective mr John

[@ee-ws7uc]

Who is doing the sub-titles? Terrible. They even messed up the family name - it's right there in the title!

[@lg2525]

I def didnt expect that ending, that sure suprised me. I really sorry for the family of John Allore he was a true great man and the love for his sister is magical, but im sure his happy with her now. Condolences to al the victims in this episode i must say the police were sure creeps back then.

[@karennotman355]

So sad

[@denisewarner8287]

John is now at rest with his dearest sister Theresa, may they both rest in peace. What a GREAT job John did in trying to find his sister's killer and also for all the hard work he did finding other victims and bringing them to the fore front. How INEPT were the Canadian police forces, shame on all of them.

[@angelabroman18]

Nobody lies worse than the guilty.

[@henkzwaneveld164]

Bike accident? No police revenge. The lifestyle of law enforcement is called vendetta. Not only in Canada 🇨🇦 or the USA 🇺🇸. We know this familiarity in the Netherlands all too well. We personally are still dealing with this criminal police behaviour.

[@taradeleeuw2344]

My hostage takers nightmare when common voices unite

[@taradeleeuw2344]

Absurd? That’s what you call it ?

[@jessicamorales2555]

Sad

[@simonmears1726]

I wish t had a connection with my sister like that we don't speak to each other 😢

[@sagelake2468]

RIP my twiiter friend John

[@kristooley4112]

The police were disgusting.

[@sdeee3842]

With Sis now 😢😢😢Sleep well 43:43

[@injacreatives9680]

I hate to say this but i was wondering why an attempt on his life wasnt done earlier, and I wouldn't be surprised if it wasnt 'an accident' he was pushing some serious buttons that crooked cops wouldn't have wanted opened up in an enquiry into a police cover up. A serial was never brought to justice, why?

[@taradeleeuw2344]

Sounds like torment family stuff

[@Viewer-qm3qx]

Like her brother just wound up being hit by a vehicle while on a routine bike ride? Ya that's suspicious af too

[@Viewer-qm3qx]

Probably because he wouldn't drop it and move on. He was looking for answers.. That could have been the motive..

[@CarniverousChar]

This story is heartbreaking 💔 Prayers for the family and friends 🧡 RIP 🙏

[@marionroffler2729]

An overdose from smoking pot🤨 no! R.I.P. ❤️🕊️🕯️

[@aridyaacob9528]

Sorry Canadian police, maybe only then and not now, but what the ....? People from around the world are watching you know, so please do better. Aren't you all ashamed for having such outlandish and laughable stories and failing people? My sister studied in Canada for about five years. Thank goodness she was safe all the time there.

[@dheeann2528]

What if, his death was not an accident?

[@Viewer-qm3qx]

Exactly what I'm thinking

[@taradeleeuw2344]

You bet

[@jonye7511]

These police officials were simply unmotivated and lacked the work ethic or will to fully investigate ie lazy. Hopefully nothing like this ever befell them.

[@AwesomeAngryBiker]

Due South was the last time the rcmp were efficient cops

[@tintinhickey5869]

A lot of these ‘free spirits’ end up murdered …..

[@freedamnsweetcree7235]

This show has shown me indigenous lives can matter here in canada. Itd be nice for more coverage on my people. But who wants to *waste* tax dollars and police energy on a bunch of drunk addicted runaways... right? 🧐

[@petricacozmiuc1795]

how incompetent police were

[@taradeleeuw2344]

Terrible

[@philippinestroppoholic7996]

I stopped watching this because of all the family and friends interviewing. We don't wanna see this stuff about how wonderful the victim was. We want the crime scene investigation only. Other information is irrelevant to the viewer. The program needs to be punchy and fast

[@religiohominilupus5259]

Speak for yourself. I do wanna hear what friends and family have to say, even if it may be exaggerated at times. Victimology is an important part of an investigation.

[@Ghost_Rider_786]

I'm in IT if I dont do my job properly I will get fired .... I manage a team of 10 ....If anyone one of those people do not do a good job they will be invited to leave the company ...BUT these cops are ....CRAP ....They are doing a rubbish job and yet are still employed .... All cops should have quarterly apprisals to ensure they are meeting their targets ... under performing cops should initially be helped and if they dont improve they should be fired ....

[@mynealways509]

Bless you John...an AWESOME brother...

[@vanj78322]

My word what kind of Mickey mouse police have Canada got in most of these series the police have no idea or just don't want to do the ground work it's tragic 🤨 so sad RIP John your with your beautiful sister now RIP Teresa 🙏🙏 thank you for all your work to help all these families ❤️🙏
