The episode left numerous serious questions in its wake--most especially why was the killer able to evade police in such limited geography for so long? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSince then, the government called a public inquiry into the massacres--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 commission 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this new book, Palango continues to crack the case, delving deeper into the evidence and testimonies of the witnesses who have been ignored. Drawing on his vast experience as an investigative reporter, 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA tour-de-force of reportage, \u003ci\u003eAnatomy of a Cover-Up \u003c\/i\u003eaccomplishes what the commission set out to do--uncover the truth about the Nova Scotia massacres and bring long overdue justice to its victims.","brand":"Random House of Canada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51937028112615,"sku":"9781039010123","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0449\/4075\/5096\/files\/imageloader_1ce47215-4114-46fc-bf9c-5cf98fb0e528.jpg?v=1774996536","url":"https:\/\/arvidabookco.com\/products\/anatomy-of-a-cover-up-the-truth-about-the-rcmp-and-the-nova-scotia-massacres","provider":"Arvida Book Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
