The Chilling Case of Margaret Sheeler: A Snowstorm, a Murder, and a Townhouse in Turmoil
The Chilling Case of Margaret Sheeler: A Snowstorm, a Murder, and a Townhouse in Turmoil
On a frigid December evening in 1963, the quiet streets of London, Ontario, were blanketed in snow—and shrouded in mystery. Twenty-year-old Margaret Sheeler, a glowing mother-to-be and newlywed, vanished without a trace from her pristine townhouse on the Bridle Path. What should have been a night of hosting friends became a night of growing suspicion.
Her husband, Philip, offered a bizarre explanation: she’d stormed out after an argument, into the snowstorm, without a coat or a car. But when Margaret’s frozen, brutally murdered body was discovered a month later—staged in a nearby vacant lot—the cracks in his story became impossible to ignore.
How could a young, pregnant woman disappear so close to home? Who staged her crime scene so meticulously to mislead investigators? And why, sixty years later, has no one been held accountable for her death?
In The Chilling Case of Margaret Sheeler, Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast reopens the file on this haunting mystery. With investigative failures, suspicious behavior, and a disturbing pattern of staged crime scenes, Margaret’s murder became a blueprint for a string of killings that would plague the region for years.
Was her death the result of a jealous ex, a hard-drinking husband, or something far more sinister?
