She was apparently asleep in bed when she was either tied up and harmed, or told to get a gun, then she either walked with him or had a handcuff on one wrist, then she was in his car, then she escaped to the bush, then she emerged wearing spandex, no shoes, no coat and did not appear to have spent the night in near freezing temperatures.
"She hid there, in the woods, on a night where temperatures flirted with the freezing mark, until morning. She’d had a jacket, but had discarded it during her flight, hoping the police would find it."‘It’s done’: Nova Scotia mass shooting documents reveal how anniversary drinks erupted into an abuser’s fury, then carnage
Even after you close the door, those things take awhile to turn off.
if you are going to release information in exchange for a lighter sentence, you should wait till you are charged with something first.
Homolka’s deal would have likely been worked out before she was formally charged but remember they desperately needed her testimony. In that case it is awful that the tapes couldn’t have been found. She is happily living in Montreal now with her husband and kids.
I saw a security camera video of the firehall during this episode and "after" footage too. I was surprised at what appear to me to be "wild shots" fired. They seem to have bad aim with their weapons. I suppose it's a good thing in a way as no one was hurt, but it surprised me to see.
I can only imagine those inside wondering what was going on!

I’m far away and was untouched by this other than by being in the same Province as it happened, and I still want to go scream inside that building.
Sorry to say this, but jeez, sounds like the two of them were a perfect match for one another. jmo.New un-redacted police statements from LS, common-law wife of the killer, about after he attacked her. Not mentioned here, but she goes into details of the attack.

“Banfield told police that in the immediate aftermath of the assault on her, she fled into the woods, and came upon a tree with an exposed root system, and she was able to hide in the cavity. She said she spent the night there...
...This particular police interview was on April 28, 10 days after the event. (She was interviewed three times by police.) So she of course knew of the mayhem that had transpired...
...The cop wrote: "Lisa Banfield had guilty feelings and wonder if [GW] went to locations that Lisa might attend to get help and killed the people as he went along. Lisa questions whether people would have died if she didn't run away."...
...I'm sure there are people who can better explain it, but this is part of the dynamic of abuse, isn't it? Whatever terrible thing the man does, it's your fault. I am of course not blaming her for this, just noting it...
...Lisa Banfield told police she "did not trust" Lisa McCully, one of the victims. She relates an incident, but understand this is only one side's version of the events, and the other side can't defend herself or give a counter narrative...
...Lisa Banfield said that one day she was throwing a party for GW, and Lisa McCully's dogs came onto the property. LB called LM to collect the dogs. Later that day LM asked LB if she could come to the party and LB said no, it was only for family and friends...

In the redacted documents on page 71, item 53:1 says the FBI found no evidence of the facetime call the night of April 18 between GW and his American friends. This is the call which triggered the rage according to Lisa Banfield. It was the catalyst for what followed, or so I heard months ago. I have no idea if subsequent investigations found such evidence, but this caught my eye. This and the negative comments about McCully.
As with all else, the more I read, the less I know.
This drip-drip-drip of releasing information just fuels conspiracy theories and mistrust in the RCMP. It must be pure torture for the families of the victims.

If you have a link, kindly share.
Something to remember is context - the documents being released support search warrants in the days following the tragedy. It’s by no means intended to be a final report. So I’m also curious how no evidence of a facetime call would be evident without the RCMP receiving records from the service provider, which takes time, especially if the actual device was burnt in the house. Possibly this “no evidence” comment came from the ITO to support exactly that?
