A Nova Scotia police chief told an investigator last year that in the aftermath of the 2020 mass shooting, he felt “nudged” by the RCMP not to release a report that had warned the gunman was a threat years before his rampage.
In an interview widely critical of the Mounties, Truro police Chief David MacNeil said that shortly after the April 18-19 murders, RCMP superintendents Chris Leather and Janis Gray arranged a call to discuss whether the chief would publicly disclose a 2011 warning about the killer, Gabriel Wortman.
