  • Resumen

  • In this special episode of LAGIM: A Filipino True Crime Podcast, I delve into a case that, at first glance, seems to have no ties to the Philippines. But dig a little deeper, and an unexpected connection begins to surface.

    Lisa Marie Young was a vibrant, young Indigenous woman from Nanaimo, British Columbia. She was on the brink of major life changes when she vanished without a trace just before Canada Day in 2002. More than two decades later, no one has been arrested or held accountable for her disappearance.

    The last person seen with Lisa was Christopher William Adair—a man who has never been thoroughly investigated, arrested, or charged in connection with her case. Yet, many believe he may hold the answers to what truly happened on that fateful night in June 2002.

    Adair left Canada years ago and has since built a new life abroad. Today, it’s believed that he is living in the Philippines, having fallen in love with a Filipina and integrating into an expat community. Despite the silence he’s maintained over the years, Lisa’s family still hopes he’ll come forward—and finally offer the closure they so desperately deserve.

    To bring more attention to this cold case, I speak with Laura Palmer, former executive producer at CBC Vancouver and the award-winning host of Island Crime, a podcast that has followed Lisa’s story for over five years. Laura shares deep insights into Lisa’s life, the investigation, and the elusive figure of Adair. We end this episode with a united call to action:

    If you or someone you know has any information about Christopher William Adair, please share this episode—or reach out to us directly. The answer to a decades-old mystery could lie right here, in our own community in the Philippines.
