Episode description

In Part One, we shared Aspen Pallot’s vibrant life and the devastating impact of intimate partner violence.

Now, in Part Two, we follow her family’s painful journey through the Canadian justice system—a process that felt cold, slow, and disconnected. The trial hinged on intent: was Solaris Dey guilty of second-degree murder or manslaughter?

In the end, he was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to just two years in custody.

Then, in March 2024, Aspen’s family was retraumatized when Solaris was linked to another violent crime.

This episode examines the court’s decision, the system’s failures, and the ongoing toll on those left behind.

This podcast is recorded on the territories of the Coast Salish people.
