Deals, Debts, & Death: The Disappearance of Kandice Singbeil Saskatoon Police Service

Not many people know what Kandice’s final years were like, but Donna Gilchrist does. Both women struggled with addictions, experienced homelessness, were involved with violent partners, and during all this, found themselves pregnant. The only difference? Donna is alive to tell her story, and Kandice isn’t.
Donna is a busy mom of two, and the co-host of Hard Knox Talks, a substance use and mental health podcast.

Kandice’s life was tragically cut short and her last few years were anything but easy, but that’s not what defines her. We spoke to Pauline, Kandice’s mom, about what led that brown-eyed baby girl to grow up wanting to be her own boss to emptying Tylenol bottle as a teenager to living on the streets of Saskatoon.

Kandice is missing, and the red flags keep coming. Investigators learn Kandice had a drug debt and didn’t respect those on the street. The missing persons investigation quickly becomes a file lead by homicide detectives.

What do a landfill, tunnels, and cell phones have in common? They’re all connected to the search for Kandice. Listen now to find out which of these shows the most promise in finding out what happened to Kandice.

Kandice is one of 19 long-term missing persons in Saskatoon, but her case is far from cold and inactive. In this episode, we hear from Kandice herself and shift gears from what has been done, to what’s next when we speak with the current lead investigator of the file.

Kandice ‘Kae’ Singbeil was a 32-year-old mother living on the streets of Saskatoon, SK, Canada, when she vanished in 2015. More than eight years later, this true crime podcast takes you inside the world Kandice lived, speaks to those closest to her, and pulls back the curtain on the investigation. Join us on Deals, Debts, & Death, as we explore what it boils down to for current investigators: drug debts and being taught a lesson.
