“As a general rule, prior to the early to mid-1900s, when provincial authorities became involved in adoptions, children were placed with family, friends or neighbours without documentation by government authorities.”

Molly- a true crime analysis is based on extensive research, interviews and published accounts. I use mainly primary and secondary sources in order to build the story. I have attempted to stick to the facts in the text and avoid assumptions, yet draw conclusions from the circumstantial evidence. Visual scenes have been created for the purposes of dramatization. This is a work of creative non-fiction inspired by true facts, physical evidence and historical research. In the end, this is my artistic interpretation and nothing more than that. – Katarina Thorsen
