*This episode contains details of the mass shooting which involve domestic violence and gun violence and may be triggering to some listeners. Please use discretion when listening to this episode*
On April 18 and 19, 2020, madman Gabriel Wortman unleashed terror across the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. What began as a domestic violence incident between Wortman and his partner turned into a series of shootings, arson and murder that spanned the course of 13 hours in various communities across the province.
In part 1 of our season finale, we're joined by our friend Jennifer Knowles to discuss the timeline of the murders, hear shocking 911 tapes and learn how the RCMP failed to keep people safe among the chaos that would officially become the worst mass shooting in Canadian history.
