Nick Beaton has every right to be angry, but…

Despite many early missteps, the Nova Scotia Mass Casualty Commission
is now doing what it needs to do — methodically assembling facts and
evidence about what happened during Canada's worst modern mass
shooting and exploring the many larger issues the tragedy requires us
as a society to confront. The rest of us need to let it do its job.

Three men being questioned

RCMP Constables Adam Merchant, Aaron Patton and Stuart Beselt, left to
right, the first officers on the scene in Portapique, are questioned
by commission counsel Roger Burrill at the Mass Casualty Commission
inquiry into the mass murders in rural Nova Scotia on April 18/19,
2020, in Halifax on Monday, March 28, 2022. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Andrew
Vaughan

It is impossible not to sympathize with the frustrations of Nick Beaton.

His pregnant wife, Kristen, was among the 22 victims of the senseless
April 2020 shooting rampage during which a killer — dressed as a
Mountie and driving a down-to-the-decals perfect replica police car —
wandered, seemingly at will, along Nova Scotia’s highways and byways,
murdering erstwhile friends, neighbours, associates, acquaintances,
even total strangers like Kristen.

At around 10 o’clock on the morning of April 19, 2020, Kristen — a VON
continuing care assistant on her way to meet clients in Masstown and
Debert — happened to stop at a gravel pullout on Plains Road near the
Debert business park.

A few minutes later, that replica RCMP cruiser drove up beside
Kristen’s Honda CR-V. The killer, dressed like a policeman, got out of
his vehicle “and proceeded to fatally shoot Ms. Beaton through her
driver’s-side window.”

Both Kristen and her husband already knew the key points about what
had happened the night before in Portapique, less than half an hour’s
drive away.

Multiple murders, fires, a suspect still on the loose…

Kristen and a clearly worried Nick exchanged phone calls and text
messages throughout that Sunday morning. Including this series of text
messages that began at 8:53 a.m. and ended close to 9:01:

    Kristen Beaton: Apparently 9 ppl were shot and 4 houses were lit
on fire. Crazzzy.
    Nick Beaton: Buddies driving a crown vic…  Still on the loose
    KB: Oh wow really. That’s scary … Know what colour?
    NB: No … But not many crown vic on the road….lol … And it was 4
different places
    KB: Wow. That’s insane. … Ya true
    I’m headed to masstown and debert for the next few visits
    NB: If u see someone walking don’t stop
    KB: Ok …
    They released who buddy is
    NB: They try to get in ur rig ram them or run them over and we
will deal with it later …
    No not yet
    KB: Rcmp sitting at debert exit … They just did release [the name
of the shooter] … 51 year old

A little over half an hour later, at 9:37, Nick sent Kristen a
Facebook screenshot photo of the now-identified killer along with the
official statement from the RCMP:

    51-year-old [GW] is the suspect in our active shooter
investigation in #Portapique. There are several victims. He is
considered armed & dangerous. If you see him, call 911. DO NOT
approach. He’s described as a white man, bald, 6’2-6’3 with green
eyes.

What the RCMP did not say — even though they’d been aware of the facts
from multiple sources since soon after the murders began the night
before — was that the murderer was dressed as a Mountie and driving a
vehicle tricked out as an official RCMP cruiser.

Twenty minutes later, Kristen Beaton was dead, murdered by a man she
would have assumed was a real Mountie.

Nick Beaton is convinced that if the RCMP had disclosed the critical
information earlier about the killer’s dress and vehicle, his wife
would still be alive. And they would be raising the child she was
carrying at the time of her death.

No wonder he is frustrated and angry.

Although clearly not alone among family members of the victims, Nick
Beaton has been one of the most vocal and persistent critics of the
federal-provincial Mass Casualty Commission, which was set up in
October 2020 to establish what happened, explore related issues and
produce a final report by November 1, 2022, complete with findings,
lessons and recommendations.

On Thursday, after attending the commission’s public hearings for the
first time — the day commission counsel laid out the inquiry’s
“Foundational Document, Plains Road, Debert,” which zeroed in on the
events that day leading to the deaths of Beaton and a second woman,
Heather O’Brien — Beaton told reporters, “I don’t feel they’re digging
into it enough, I really don’t.”

He pointed out that the 61-page document and discussion of it left out
too many details, including the fact that Kristen’s brother had been
told by police at the murder scene that day that “a young female left
with chest injuries. Kristen’s brother called me right then and said,
‘Kristen might still be alive.’ It gave us hope.”

Hope that would be dashed eight hours later when the RCMP finally
officially informed Beaton his wife was dead.

The commission, he said, wasn’t probing deeply enough into the RCMP’s
actions and inactions that day.

“Right from April 19, 2020, (it’s been) smoke and mirrors,” he said
after the hearing Thursday.

    We’re just like mushrooms, kept in the dark … There was lots
missing today…  We pray that changes are going to be made, but at this
point I don’t see that they’re digging enough or caring enough to do
it.  Me and the other family members looked at each other today and
said, ‘Is that it?’ We haven’t learned anything we didn’t already
know.

It is hard not to feel for Beaton’s anger and his frustration.

But is his criticism of the commission fair?

The public inquiry into the tragedy did not get off to an auspicious
start. Even before the commission was announced, there was wrangling
over whether it should even exist, then what form it should take,
followed by an embarrassing shuffling of commissioners.

Five months after the tragedy, the commission was awkwardly
order-in-counciled into existence by seemingly reluctant governments
in Nova Scotia and Ottawa — and given an almost impossible deadline to
do all it had to do and publish its final report by November of this
year.

That’s just six months from now!

But there were delays in getting started, followed by a series of open
houses in the fall of 2021 to “to share information about our work,
answer questions and to gather feedback from community members,” which
satisfied no one.

Public proceedings that were supposed to start in late October 2021
were delayed until the end of January 2022, and then postponed again
for another month.

Even after the public proceedings began on February 22, there were
lingering procedural disputes to be resolved: about whether RCMP
officers would be required to testify in person, about the role the
murderer’s common-law spouse would — or would not — play in the
inquiry, about who would be called to testify, about whether lawyers
for the family members would be allowed to question or perhaps
cross-examine witnesses …

Some of those questions have still not been finally answered.

To make matters worse — at least in the eyes of many, including some
family members — the commission began its public proceedings with a
day-long “feel-good” expert panel …

    to help normalize and validate emotions people have felt or are
feeling, and to help people prepare for the information to come from
the Commission’s work.

All of that acknowledged, it is difficult to spend anytime exploring
the Mass Casualty Commission website and not come away with an
appreciation for the gargantuan task the commissioners have taken on
and the methodical way they are approaching it.

There were, its worth remembering, 17 different crime scenes over the
killer’s 13-hour murder spree. There are 61 designated participants —
victims’ relatives, injured survivors, first responders, police
officers and the federal and provincial governments — taking part in
the inquiry. The commission’s investigators and lawyers have
interviewed hundreds of witnesses — from RCMP and first responders to
family members to witnesses to passersby — sifted through 40,000 pages
of documents, including video surveillance, cell phone records, text
messages, etc., trying to piece together the factual underpinning for
understanding what happened, and what may have gone wrong to allow
what happened to happen.

The result is a virtual library shelf full of what are referred to as
Foundational Documents, along with often-multiple source materials in
order to lay out the details of what happened in a complete and
cross-referenced if dry legal, investigative bureaucratese. (Thank god
for journalists like the Examiner’s Tim Bousquet and others who have
used these documents, along with their own independent reporting, to
create compelling, digestible narratives for the rest of us.)

So far, the commission has only released eight of these foundational
documents. The commission is deliberately — and probably quite
reasonably — making them public at the same time its counsel walks us
through each of them.

There will, in fact, ultimately be close to 30 location-based and
topic-based foundational documents released during what the commission
calls Phase 1.

One of those still-unreleased documents — “Next of Kin Death
Notification to Families of Victims” — may provide some of the details
Nick Beaton is looking for when it comes to the RCMP’s treatment of
him and his family in the immediate aftermath of his wife’s murder.

During Phase 2, the commission will release another eight foundational
documents on various related topics, including the killer’s violence
toward his common-law spouse and others, the violence in his own
family and his financial “misdealings.” It will also publish more
foundational documents revisiting the issue of notifications to next
of kind, including victim support.

In addition, the inquiry has commissioned its own technical reports to
provide “factual information such as the structure of policing in Nova
Scotia,” and expert reports to “gather and analyze public policy,
academic research and lessons learned from previous mass casualties.”
There will be nearly 20 of those — from “critical incident
decision-making” to a “legal history of the police duty to warn the
public” to “supporting survivors and families in the wake of a mass
casualty event” — and more may be commissioned in Phase 3 when the
commissioners draft their recommendations “to help make communities
safer.”

I certainly understand the anger and frustration Nick Beaton and some
other family members. They have already been waiting for two years for
answers to their legitimate questions.

Given the work the commission still has to complete, I suspect they —
and we — will be waiting well beyond November 1 for answers. That may
be necessary and someone should acknowledge that soon.

That said, I have less sympathy for Premier Tim Houston’s apparent
attempt to play on their anguish by accusing the commissioners, even
before the first public hearing, of being “disrespectful” to the
families.

Interestingly, Houston also claimed to want an inquiry that is
“honest, comprehensive, detailed and most importantly, designed to
answer questions.”

If the commission fails to “answer questions,” there will be plenty of
opportunities to criticize. For now, Houston — and the rest of us —
need to acknowledge the real work being done by the commission and its
staff and allow it to unfold.

Families describe tense encounters with RCMP on N.S. mass shooting’s second day

By Michael Tutton The Canadian Press
Posted April 1, 2022 7:52 am

Click to play video: 'RCMP missed gunman by mere moments'
Nova Scotia RCMP officers were just minutes away from capturing the
gunman the morning of Sunday, April 19, 2020, the Mass Casualty
Commission said during the inquiry Thursday. Graeme Benjamin reports.

Warning: This story contains content that may be disturbing to some
readers. Discretion is advised.

Documents released Thursday describe tense and tragic moments as RCMP
officers and then distraught family members arrived at the scene of
brutal killings during the second day of the 2020 Nova Scotia mass
shooting.

The killer had by mid-morning of April 19, 2020, killed 17 people and
was in his replica RCMP vehicle on his way through Debert, about 20
kilometres north of Truro, having eluded police once again.

According to the summaries prepared by the public inquiry into the
killings, at about 10 a.m. the perpetrator pulled beside Kristen
Beaton, a continuing care assistant pregnant with her second child,
left his vehicle and shot her through the window of her car. Beaton
had been travelling between communities to provide care for clients
since early that morning.

After killing Beaton, the murderer drove back to the car of Heather
O’Brien, a VON licensed practical nurse parked a little over 300
metres behind her. He shot her multiple times as she was on a
cellphone call with a friend. He then drove from the scene towards a
secondary highway that went east to Truro.

on second day of killings

Through the day, the RCMP — now fully aware the perpetrator was
dressed like them and driving a marked Mountie car — had tense moments
with family members.

That morning, on Hunter Road in West Wentworth, shortly after the
murders of Alanna Jenkins and Sean McLeod, Const. Brenna Counter drew
her carbine rifle on Jenkins’ father and demanded he identify himself
as he approached the burned house where his daughter had been killed.

By 10:15 a.m., after constables Ian Fahie and Devonna Coleman arrived
at the scene of O’Brien’s death, they were employing what the RCMP
refers to as “lethal overwatch,” in which one member surveys the area
with their weapon as another responds to the emergency.

In his Oct. 1, 2021, interview with the inquiry, Fahie recalled he and
his partner took turns monitoring the dying woman. He said the RCMP’s
emergency medical response team told him they couldn’t call in regular
or air ambulances at that moment because of the risk posed by the
active shooter.

He recalled telling arriving firefighters to leave because of
potential danger, and then, as he was monitoring the area with his
carbine, O’Brien’s daughter — Michaella Scott — arrived and called
out, “That’s my mom’s car.”

killing rampage revealed

In her interview last year with the commission, Scott said she tried
to approach and asked where her mother was, but she was turned back by
RCMP officers with guns raised toward her.

“This day burns in the back of my head,” she said. “They took away my
right to hold my mother’s hand, to say goodbye, to tell her I loved
her one last time.”

Scott left the scene, but — on the urging of her sisters — returned at
11:17 a.m., and she told the inquiry staff that at that time a male
constable “handed her a card, apologized to her, and said: ‘This is
now being investigated as a homicide.”’

In his interview, Fahie said in the second encounter, he explained to
Scott “that the victim was her mother, that she was deceased, that it
was murder, and that she was not in any pain,” and that he took her
name and number and told her to return home to her family.

Scott told the commission she was in a state of shock, and that she
then drove to her sister’s house.

According to the inquiry’s summary, Kristen Beaton’s husband, Nick
Beaton, also arrived at the scene. Fahie said in his interview that
they also asked him to leave the scene.

replica police cruiser

As the hearings concluded Thursday, Beaton said the commission of
inquiry has failed to properly scrutinize the evidence or ask
sufficiently probing questions about RCMP actions.

“Right from April 19, 2020, (it’s been) smoke and mirrors,” he told
reporters outside the hearing room at the Halifax Convention Centre.
“We’re just like mushrooms, kept in the dark … There was lots missing
today.”

Beaton said the inquiry’s public hearings, which started on Feb. 22,
have proven to be a disappointment to him and other victims’
relatives.

“We pray that changes are going to be made, but at this point I don’t
see that they’re digging enough or caring enough to do it,” he said.
“Me and the other family members looked at each other today and said,
`Is that it?’ We haven’t learned anything we didn’t already know.”

This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 1, 2022.



'I don't feel they’re digging into it enough': Husband of N.S.
shooting victim angry after day at inquiry

Thursday was the first time Nick Beaton came to the public proceedings
held in Halifax by the Mass Casualty Commission, and he says he was
only faced with disappointment.

That was the day the commission outlined its findings of fact so far
regarding what led up to the killing of Beaton's pregnant wife,
Kristen Beaton, by the gunman responsible for Nova Scotia’s April 2020
mass shooting.

"I don't feel they're digging into it enough, I really don't," says Beaton.

Beaton says too many details were left out in the inquiry’s
presentation on the events, like what Kristen’s brother was told by
police after he rushed to the crime scene in search his sister.

“The information he was told at the scene, is that a young female left
with chest injuries,” says Beaton. “Kristen’s brother called me right
then and said, 'Kristen might still be alive,' ... it gave us hope.”

Beaton says Kristen’s brother even went to the hospital to look for her.

The family’s hope vanished when RCMP notified them of Kristen's
homicide eight hours after she was killed.

But during Thursday’s public presentation, senior counsel for the
commission, Roger Burrill, stuck to his overview of the inquiry’s
timeline of events on the morning of Sunday, April 19, 2020.

That presentation picked up where it left off from the previous day,
detailing the killer’s movements after he killed his seventeenth
victim, Lillian Campbell, on the side of Highway 4 while she was on
her morning walk.

Information gathered by the commission shows how close RCMP officers
came to the suspect in his replica police car that morning. In fact,
one officer, Cpl. Rodney Peterson, passed the perpetrator on the
highway going in the opposite direction, telling police dispatch, “The
guy ah, was driving slow, smiled as he went by ...”

Peterson did not immediately turn around to pursue the suspect, who
then disappeared from view.

The time was almost 9:48 a.m., and the perpetrator appeared on
security camera footage at a residence in Glenholme, N.S., shortly
after. That footage shows him approaching the door holding what looks
like a long gun.

The couple inside frantically called 911 and reported he was banging
on the door.

Surveillance footage from the property indicates the gunman only
stayed a little over two minutes.

By the time RCMP officers on the ground -- and a DNR helicopter in the
sky -- arrived at the location, less than 10 minutes later, the
suspect was gone.

At that point, surveillance video shown by the commission indicates he
was travelling on Plains Road in nearby Debert, N.S.

That’s where he encountered VON (The Victorian Order of Nurses)
continuing care assistant Kristen Beaton, who was parked at a gravel
area roadside.

According to her husband, it was normally seen as a safe place to pull
over for a break in between client visits.

Beaton and his wife had been communicating back-and-forth in text
messages and phone calls about the situation, which they knew from
social media had unfolded in Portapique, N.S., the night before.

Beaton told his wife in a text, “If you see someone walking, don’t
stop.” At 9:37 a.m., Beaton sent his wife a photo of the suspect sent
out by police.

But while the RCMP knew internally to be on the lookout for the
suspect in a mock police car, the force didn't alert the public to
that fact until a tweet at 10:17 a.m.

“If we had known, she would have been home, there's no question. I
believe that with every inch of my soul that she would have been home
if she had of known,” says Beaton.

The last time Beaton spoke to his wife on the phone was at 9:41 a.m.

Around 10 a.m., a witness driving on Plains Road reported seeing the
suspect and his mock police cruiser pulled up next to a vehicle at the
spot where Kristen had pulled over.

According to forensic reports, Beaton was shot through the driver’s
side window of her vehicle.

At the same time, VON nurse Heather O'Brien, who was on a day off, was
parked on the same road 320 metres ahead, talking on the phone with
friend and colleague Leona Allen. Allen later told the commission
O’Brien mentioned hearing gunshots and seeing a police officer.

Then Allen heard her friend scream. The call ended, and she couldn’t
reach O’Brien again.

The commission says, according to forensic evidence, investigators
determined the gunman also shot O’Brien through the driver’s side of
her vehicle.

It took the commission several hours to present its information on
what happened on Plains Road before it wrapped up for the day before
noon Thursday.

Beaton remains dissatisfied with the commission’s work so far.

“I don't feel like it's really doing what we marched and fought for,”
he said. “I think they’re just scanning what’s already out there.”

The Mass Casualty Commission’s public proceedings will resume the week
of April 11.
