2020 mass murders

All of the Halifax Examiner’s reporting on the mass murders of April 18/19, 2020, and recent articles on the Mass Casualty Commission and newly-released documents.

Uncover: Dead Wrong

In 1995, Brenda Way was brutally murdered behind a Dartmouth apartment building. In 1999, Glen Assoun was found guilty of the murder. He served 17 years in prison, but steadfastly maintained his innocence. In 2019, Glen Assoun was fully exonerated.

Halifax Examiner founder and investigative journalist Tim Bousquet has followed the story of Glen Assoun's wrongful conviction for over five years. Now, Bousquet tells that story as host of Season 7 of the CBC podcast series Uncover: Dead Wrong.

The Tideline, with Tara Thorne

Episode 78 of The Tideline, with Tara Thorne, is published.

对于1970年代中期的演出(和邪教电影)来说,岩石恐怖表演在描绘酷儿和性别的时代已经领先于时代,并且 - 少数几个实例都非常出乎意料地出奇地适应了这一现代时代。Neptune Theatre’s production opens this week (running through June 26) and director Jeremy Webb and actors Allister MacDonald (Dr. Frank N Furter) and Breton Lalama (Riff Raff) squeeze in a chat between tech run-throughs to dig into how they’ve updated (and produced) the show with 2022 eyes—namely an intimacy director and active consent between characters—and whether they’re prepared for the rare theatre audience that talks back. Plus a new song from Nicole Ariana.
