A close relative of the man who disguised himself as a Mountie and fatally shot 22 people in Nova Scotia says the killer was a lifelong scammer and opportunist raised in a deeply dysfunctional family, newly released documents say.
Chris Wortman, a former Mountie who was the gunman’s uncle, told police soon after the killings in April 2020 that he wasn’t surprised when he learned his nephew, Gabriel Wortman, was responsible for Canada’s worst mass shooting.
