Welcome, dear listeners, to another tale of murder, scandal and crime from Mississauga’s darker side.
Without mincing words, today's case is the most notorious murder in Canadian history. Christine and Peter Demeter were the epitome of post-war Canadian dreamers: Stylish, good-looking and rich.
The expansive Demeter mansion in Erindale was the epitome of the post-war Canadian dream home: A five-bedroom split-level bungalow backing out onto an in-ground pool with a scenic view of the Credit River.
On a quiet summer’s night, Peter Demeter lifted the home’s two-car garage door to reveal a scene that would turn the dream into a nightmare: Christine’s battered and lifeless body.
Police didn’t need to search far for a prime suspect, and zeroed in on the dead woman’s husband. The only problem? He had an airtight alibi.
From the case files of Heritage Mississauga, this is… Mississauga Confidential.
Season 3, Episode 13. Night Moves, Part One: The Murder of Christine Demeter.
As always, dear listeners, thank you for listening and for your support.
Stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion to our story coming to Heritage Bytes on November 7, 2022.
