No problem. I am guilty of that "doesn't make sense" behaviour. After the RCMP press conference, when they took questions, I kept hoping they would ask "my" questions. They were not. But I did learn a lot, and continue to do so. Even with "full" information, I agree with you, I doubt it...
Vern I will watch that podcast now, thanks for the link. I also did not want wish to convey a sense of "hinkiness" or questioning what they are saying, it's just that as more comes out, more questions form in my addled mind. and I pose questions as they come to me. Admittedly, my ability to...
More unknowns........quoting the article linked above
Wortman allegedly left the party after getting into an argument with his girlfriend. He then allegedly tied her up in his house and beat her before returning to the party.
Do we know when the idiot left the party? Did she leave with him or...
I saw those tracks too and noticed that to the right of Bayview Ct. where it seems to fade away there is another dirt road. Local knowledge would prob. allow someone to use these tracks. Maybe the fires were set to decoy attention away from this escape route? I apologise if I am getting too...
Another bit of confusion (for me anyway) are the ambiguous references to "his home". He had the one at 200 Portapique Beach Road and also 136 Orchard Beach Road. I've seen both referred to as "his home". Would it be more correct to suggest one was his residence, the other "a house" of his...
In the absence of further details, it is difficult to "connect the dots", esp when we know some "dots" are missing. It surprised me at the press conference when it was stated that more died of the fires than firearms. (at Portapique itself).
It has been reported that on the Saturday evening...
Some time before 10 p.m. — Gabriel Wortman, 51, assaults his girlfriend in the Portapique area. A 911 call comes in about an assault between him and someone he knows.
That quote was from the CBC timeline reference on the previous page of this thread. It says that prior to 10 pm an assault has...
This might be unanswerable at this time but........if he went and killed the couple early Sunday morning and a few hours later set fire to the house, would it not have been smarter to take one of their cars, hide his there and not set fire? He could have got a huge head start on a "getaway" at...
I thought I heard that too, that she lived nearby. That confused me too.
The other part that really got to me was that while I knew places had been burned down, it appears they were alive when that happened. I had thought it they were shot first and then had their houses burnt.
I read that...
I know there are numerous posts about the differences between real RCMP vehicles and the shooter's. I must admit I would probably not notice even on a good day. If I saw flashing lights behind me and a uniformed body coming toward me I'd figure it was legitimate. Or on a dark night while...
Speaking of family and sensitivity....I have to admit the fiddle tribute to Emily was among the most moving things I've ever witnessed. I love fiddle music to begin with so perhaps I am biased, but when a famous fiddler plays "second fiddle" to someone still learning it was a moving...
Thank you for the "food for thought" deugirtni, I had not even considered that he believed she was still in the house when it was burnt. He may well have thought she was going to die there and his shootings therefore might have been to remove any witnesses to their altercation earlier that...
Thank you for the sources, trying to piece together this in my own mind. One further question, he had a house at 200 Portapique Beach Road and also at 136 Orchard Beach. Which was his residence? I have seen sources suggest either.
The more I see the map it looks like he just went door to door...
It has taken a few sittings to read thru all the messages in both threads here....great info and discussion. I do need to clarify, if someone can, some details.
1. The shooter had a few properties there, but his residence was 200 Portapique Beach Rd?
2. Which houses were burned at...
The fact he let AH go made me wonder if NK had perhaps some form of conscience left in him. Now I see that was not the case of the counterfeiting business closing in on him and he didn't want AH around to complicate things. The more I learn about him, the worse he gets.
All that said, it...
Strange to see it all reduced to some forms with boxes checked off here and there. Hard to imagine all the pain and suffering which lies behind it all. At least this makes it "done". I do hope AH finds some sort of security in knowing he is locked away.
After watching the video, many thoughts came to mind....polar opposite thoughts at the same time. I wondered if the acknowledgement of guilt was a form of remorse, or his way of controlling the situation in some limited manner. I hope for remorse, but am not convinced. When NK spoke, it too...
I wish the words would come.......but they don't. I heard the pain in her mom's voice. I thought I heard a distance, in AH, like there was no spark there. I hope it was a matter of trying to maintain composure, and that she does have that spark inside.
As things come to a close, I have to...
This should help AH immensely, I cannot imagine how long and hard the road to recovery is and has been for her. Having to relive what were allegations thru a trial was enough to make one sick. I'm so glad this is not happening now. I hope she is doing well.
I wonder what possessed NK to...
