Dispersing the Fog E62 - The Tragic Death of Clinton Ellison, Scathing Civilian Oversight Commission Report on RCMP's Susan Butlin Investigation

This week we discuss the tragic death of Clinton Ellison, as well as the report from the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP on the RCMP's botched investigation into the sexual assault complaint of Susan Butlin.Clinton Ellison was the brother of Corrie Ellison, who was killed on April 18, 2020 in Portapique, during the NS mass shooting. There have always been questions about who actually killed Ellison, and Clinton had claimed that the RCMP was responsible. He never waivered from that stance. This week, Clinton Ellison killed himself in Fredericton. We discuss his pursuit of the truth, and share some messages that he exchanged with Paul in the weeks leading up to his death.Also this week, the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP released a report authored by the highly respected Brent Cotter, which showed the many ways that the RCMP failed to properly investigate the complaints of Susan Bultin, who was eventually murdered by her neighbour, Ernie "Junior" Duggan, who is now spending life in jail for her murder.

Dispersing the Fog E61 - SCC Creates Coercive Control Tort, Ashley v. AI, Guest Kim March on Bill Majcher Trial

This week, we welcome guest Kim March, who was an 'unindicted co-conspirator' of William Majcher, who was acquitted this week in BC of targeting an alleged fraudster on behalf of the Chinese government. Mr. March was to be a witness in the trial, but was never called to the stand. He tells us about the trial, as well as stories from his career with the RCMP, and his work since travelling the globe tracking money and assets for governments and private investors.Also, this week the Supreme Court of Canada created the new tort of intimate partner violence, and affirmed a damages award of $100,000 to a woman who suffered for years at the hands of her abusive husband. We discuss the emerging legal treatments of coercive control, and whether it may lead to unintended consequences. Also discussed, updated details on the YVR4, NS gets a new RCMP Commanding Officer, and Ashley MacIsaac sues Google over false AI-generated claims.

Dispersing the Fog E60 - Calls for Non-RCMP for Jack and Lilly Sullivan Case, Jail Guards Assaulted by Dangerous Offender, NPF Writes "Dear Mike" to RCMP Commissioner re: YVR4

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms (and maternally-inclined care providers). This week, we follow up on stories from our recent coverage, with new details and reactions. First, we discuss the growing calls for an outside police force to take over the Jack and Lilly Sullivan investigation after the RCMP has gone a year without finding any answers. We discuss why an outside agency makes sense, why the RCMP may be resisting such calls, and some of the theories that are emerging about the case. Next we unveil new details on the prisoner who attacked five guards at the Springhill Institution. Thomas McConville was declared a dangerous offender after a conviction for robbing a bank and fleeing police in Ontario, and was transferred to Nova Scotia to serve his indeterminant sentence. Finally, we review the letter from National Police Federation President, Brian Sauve to RCMP Commissioner Michael Duheme on the RCMP's lack of public statement on the highly critical Ontario Provincial Police report on the 'YVR 4' officers who were involved in the investigation and death of Robert Dziekański at the Vancouver Airport.

Dispersing the Fog E59 - Sullivan Children, Deaths in NS Jails, RCMP-Truro Police On Different Channels, Guests Fmr RCMP Complaints Comm. Shirley Heafey and Fmr RCMP Dep. Comm. Curt Allen

This week, we are excited to introduce a new guest, former RCMP Complaints Commissioner, Shirley Heafey. She is joined by former RCMP Deputy Commissioner Curt Allen to discuss her career, her interactions with senior RCMP leadership, and her role in the Robert Dziekański case (where she assisted the responding officers, who were eventually exonerated by an OPP report on the incident).Also discussed this week, the one year anniversary of the disappearance of Jack and Lilly Sullivan in rural Pictou County, and the latest RCMP statements. We also discuss the death of an inmate in custody, and the lack of information available for such situations. There was an emergency alert issued in Colchester County this week, near the area where the NS mass shootings took place, which is raising fresh questions about the lack of cooperation between the RCMP and Truro Police.

Dispersing the Fog E58 - Desmond Inq. Update, Majcher Trial, Guest Calvin Lawrence on Idsinga Book

This week we welcome back former Halifax Police and RCMP officer, Calvin Lawrence, author of 'Black Cop', to discuss the new book by retired Toronto Police homicide detective Hank Idsinga. Idsinga has made allegations of anti-sematic racism at the highest levels of the Toronto Police service in national interviews this week. Also, the NS government had committee hearings this week to discuss progress in the 25 recommendations for the Desmond Inquiry. Adam was counsel to the Desmond family during this Inquiry, and explains how the government and opposition parties are all missing the central issues of the Inquiry, relating to military medical records and PTSD in our soldiers. Also discussed this week, we read two letters that we received after last week's NS Mass Shooting 6th anniversary show, one critical and one complimentary. Finally, we give an assessment of the trial of William Majcher, the former RCMP officer charged under the Security of Information Act with attempting to assist the Chinese government in their efforts to bring a suspected fraudster back to China to face charges. A three week jury trial was reduced to a judge alone trial that lasted only a few days.
