Finding Ben Kilmer: Part Two

Published: July 29, 2020, 1:18 p.m.

For our landmark 70th episode, we continue our conversation with Tonya Kilmer. In Part 2, we focus on the details surrounding the case. For years, Vancouver Island has sought closure around what went wrong with Ben Kilmer - a strong, local, family man. Many people are still convinced foul play had to be involved as they can't imagine Ben could have taken his own life. Rather than chase conspiracies, we asked Tonya to share once and for all what she learned from the police reports, phone records, Ben's vehicle and his final resting place by Chemainus River. We also asked Tonya to address the people who were making up the conspiracies. The result is another epic example of courageous story telling. We remain thankful to Tonya and Ben's family for trusting us to host their story. This! Is Obstacle Course.
