In this interview Matt Crawford speaks with author John Allore about his book, Wish You Were Here. November 3, 1978, 19-year-old Theresa Allore would go missing while attending Champlain College in Compton Quebec. Her family would not be notified for Ten days and immediately it would be treated as a case of a young rebellious, drug using, possible lesbian women, who simply left to sow her wild oats. Her body was found on April 13, 1979, one mile from her dormitory. Still unsolved, this is her story and the story of so many other women whose murder and sexual assaults were largely ignored or covered up by authorities. Told by her brother John Allore and Patricia Pearson, this is a gut punch of a read that details the ineptitude and wanton disregard by the authorities they uncovered while investigating Theresa's murder.
