Overview

Serial Killer Autopsy: Robert Pickton, The Pig Farmer Killer Between the early 1990s and 2002, women disappeared from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside at an alarming rate. For years, authorities dismissed these disappearances as unremarkable, the predictable fate of sex workers, addicts, and society's most marginalized citizens. But behind the indifference was a horror beyond comprehension: Robert Pickton, a pig farmer operating from a squalid property in Port Coquitlam, was systematically hunting, murdering, and disposing of vulnerable women using the very equipment designed for livestock slaughter. Serial Killer Autopsy: Robert Pickton, The Pig Farmer Killer offers an unflinching examination of one of Canada's most prolific serial killers and the catastrophic institutional failures that enabled his crimes. This comprehensive account dissects every aspect of the case, from Pickton's abusive childhood and psychological development to the desperate circumstances of his victims, from the years of investigative negligence to the controversial trial that finally brought him to justice. This is not simply a true crime narrative, it is a searing social critique that asks uncomfortable questions about whose lives matter, who gets protected, and who gets forgotten. It examines the intersection of misogyny, racism, class prejudice, and institutional negligence that created the conditions for one man to butcher dozens of women while authorities looked away. Drawing on court documents, investigative reports, the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry, and extensive research into serial killer psychology, Serial Killer Autopsy: Robert Pickton delivers a comprehensive analysis that is as much about society's failures as it is about one man's crimes. It challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truth that Robert Pickton's victims died not just because of one killer's pathology, but because of collective indifference to the lives of women deemed disposable. Raw, uncompromising, and essential reading for anyone seeking to understand not just what happened on that farm in Port Coquitlam, but why it was allowed to happen and what must change to prevent such tragedies in the future. Warning: This book contains detailed discussions of violence against women, substance abuse, sexual assault, and disturbing forensic details. Reader discretion is advised.
