About
Investigative journalist Paul Palango's 22 Murders examined in forensic detail the shooting spree committed in April 2020 by Gabriel Wortman that began in tiny Portapique Bay, Nova Scotia, and ended thirteen hours later when Wortman was shot dead by RCMP officers. The episode left numerous serious questions in its wake--most especially why was the killer able to evade police in such limited geography for an entire night and much of the following morning? Since then, the government called a public inquiry into the massacre--the Mass Casualty Commission. Though Palango unearthed a treasure trove of evidence pointing to the possibility that Wortman or someone close to him was acting as a police agent, the MCC evaded all the big questions and let the RCMP off with a slap on the wrist. To this day, no one has been held accountable. In this new book, Palango continues to crack the case, delving deeper into story, the evidence and witnesses whose testimonies have been ignored. Drawing on his vast experience as an investigative reporter who has found himself at the centre of many high-profile controversies over decades, he has mined the thousands of pages of Commission documents to reveal the wall of secrecy and deceptions constructed by the RCMP and the criminal justice system, exposing new facts that may alter the public's perception of what really happened. A tour-de-force of reportage, Anatomy of a Cover-Up accomplishes what the Commission set out to do--uncover the truth about the Nova Scotia massacres and bring long overdue justice to its victims.
