Vanished Voices, The Overlooked
Silence can be louder than any scream. Vanished Voices is a true crime podcast that dives into the cases of the missing and the murdered whose stories were buried or ignored. They are echoes, whispers, and warnings from those who can no longer speak for themselves. Through deep research and heartfelt storytelling, this is where the silence is broken, and the vanished are finally heard.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On a frigid January night in 2014, 20-year-old Rocelyn Gabriel — Ojibway, bright, full of plans — vanished into the blizzard in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. Hours later, she was found behind an industrial recycling depot, barely alive, wearing only a sweater.
Authorities called it death by exposure, hypothermia. But her family insists: Rocelyn didn’t end up there by accident.
In this episode of Vanished Voices, we retrace Rocelyn’s final hours, challenge the gaps in the investigation, and amplify the voices of those still demanding justice.
How did she get to that desolate place? Why didn’t police search for evidence of foul play right away? And who, if anyone, knows the truth?
This is not just a tragedy. This is the story of Rocelyn Gabriel.
